Why Private Suffering Must Become Political Action
A father recently left a comment on my website asking how any of my essays apply in the real world. What, he asked, can a father like him do to protect his children from what he experiences as systemic child trafficking?
I would not use that phrase as my policy description. But I understand why a parent reaches for it, their child’s relationship can feel captured by processes they cannot control, cannot afford and cannot make accountable.
This question is not only a father’s question. It is the question asked, in different forms, by every parent, grandparent and adult alienated child who has watched a safe family relationship become institutionally disposable.
- This is Bigger Than Psychology and Law
- That failure is moral. It is also political.
- The answer is political.
