When Meagan Broussard noticed signs that her 5-year-old daughter was being abused, she did everything a mother is supposed to do. She went to doctors. She filed reports. Mandated reporters raised alarms.
But instead of protecting her child, the family court system turned on her. Meagan was accused of “parental alienation,” a term often used to silence mothers in courtrooms across America. The result? She lost custody.
In this episode, we break down Meagan’s story—and expose how family court punishes mothers who speak up. With real facts, real consequences, and a system that claims to protect children but often fails them.
Because when survivors speak, the world should listen.
And here, we always will.
