From Family Court to The Classroom. February 10, Eau Claire, WI. In the last thirty-six months, we have heard a great deal about Race to the Top and performance-based pay for teachers. Currently politicians from both sides have gone as far as praising Eastern Asia for their academic excellence. Could this phenomenon of academic excellence be attributed to their emphasis on the family? The recent educational reforms sweeping across America sound like grand concepts but there are just a few major flaws.
One of the questions that needs to be asked is how did we get here? A great starting point is to address decades of judicial activism within the family courts that has created our present entitlement, education, and poverty crisis.
For decades, the family courts have used the power of the judiciary to emotionally and financially hinder children and families in the pursuit of State and Federal incentive payments W-2, TANF, DCF Ch. Presently, both political parties under their breath have placed blame squarely on the shoulders of school administrators and great teachers knowing the union was nothing more than a paper tiger. We are finally able to see how lawmakers have influenced policies that are destroying the classroom and have created this looming entitlement powder keg.
Resolving flagrant improprieties within family law, children and family services and county agencies is paramount. The coaching of federal entitlement funding by county agencies I believe is directly contributing to generational poverty, child abuse, child neglect, child fatalities and our decline in our educational rank among developed nations as well as our ever-growing incarceration rate. Many teachers are aware of how fragile children are Adverse Childhood Experience that have been through a brutal family law action.
Most often animosity is running high during this time, families are unaware that the animosity they are feeling is by design. Creating animosity ensures cyclical family law actions that help gauge and estimate entitlement matches and incentive payments for county budgets.
