Thoughts and how to change your thoughts, words lead to action, action leads to habits. Change your habits and you will begin to think differently about your FUTURE. Habits can change character and once that happens when you stop believing the delusions and lies said about you, depression and anger you can change your DESTINY.
If you change your thoughts, it will change your feelings which will in turn then affect your body. Find the Silver Lining in a bad situation and find one good thing out of a bad situation. This is life changing. Train your brain to feel confidence along with using your heart. Amy explained that you can have love without feeling pain and how to have the mindset to do this.

Sam Sugar, M.D., Discusses How To Prevent Guardianships, What To Do To Prevent And When You Can't Mar 24, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes back Sam Sugar, M.D. to the show. we discussed how to prevent a Guardianship/Professional Guardianship from happening and what to do if you cannot. Dr. Sugar recommended having Advance Directives that state that under no circumstances that you want a guardianship. Also make sure a Health Care POA is in place and a Will. Make your wishes well known to family members as well as settling family disputes, as Guardianships can start with a disgruntled family member.
There could be an estimated 3-3.5 million Guardianships in the United States and this creates a negative impact on families affected by a loved one being placed into a Guardianship. Families find their money being thrown away in years to multiple decades of litigation affecting their own health and welfare fighting for their loved one.
We discussed the dark history that goes back to Parens Patriae and how in 1929 Equity Courts joined with civil and criminal courts as well as the history of the Osage Tribe and the book written by David Grann, "Killers of The Flower Moon," that goes into more detail on what really happened to the Osage Tribe and how that evolved into the FBI and J. Edgar Hoover. This history of the Orphan Trains were discussed and how churches and others thought it was a great idea to put homeless children onto trains and ship them off to help farmers farm their land.
Prevention is very important, and Dr. Sugar recommends people be vigilant and aware of their surroundings in order to prevent a Guardianship from happening to their loved one and family.

Advocate Sarah Leyva Pike Speaks Out On TikTok @savejoshandsammie And Child Trafficking Mar 23, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes Sarah Leyva Pike to the show. Sarah spoke about her sons, Joshua & Samuel Leyva as they were forcefully removed from their home in Virginia through a perjurious "no-knock-warrant" carried out by the Sheriff’s Department.
Since November 2015, their Mother, Sarah Leyva Pike had maintained a Non-Revocable Court Order which protected rightful Virginia jurisdiction and custody of both children. Tarrant County judiciary unlawfully took jurisdiction, in addition to leaning into bias, and committing aggravated perjury, child kidnapping, and child trafficking across state lines.
However, since they were removed, Josh & Sammie have been prevented from every mode of contact with their Mother. For over two years Sarah has received zero evidence of their wellbeing. Tarrant County judiciary have continued to deny both Sarah and her children of their most basic Constitutional rights whilst continuing to target Sarah with multiple hearings without representation or ability to be present.
The result of which has led herto being labeled a “vexatious” litigant, and fined over $20,000 in legal fees to the opposing party and a Habeas Corpus (civil warrant) with to her knowledge contains 39 violations; requesting 6 consecutive months imprisonment for each violation; where she would not be provided a jury due to "non-criminal". Sarah is not looking for justice, she just want to hug her children, know where they are and know they are safe.

Teri Yaki Cahoon Discusses How The Family Court System Affects The LGBTQ Community Mar 19, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes Teri "Yaki" Cahoon to the show. She is a volunteer teacher and relief worker, Air Force veteran, a foster parent, an adoptive homeschooling Mum, and biological mother after having multiple child losses (biological, adoptive, and foster).
Teri "married" someone of same sex before the supreme court ruling which retroactively put her name on my daughter's birth certificate. She thought I was living a dream until the other party tricked her into signing a document that now allowed her sell the house, move out of state, and demand that Teri follow with the children.
Two months later Teri found herself locked out of her home. Teri began reaching out for my children who were forced into the apartment building by people who posed as "friends". Her oldest adopted son was used to slander Teri in two main court cases that began a journey for her to fight for her own biological daughter and her closest-in-age adopted brother across 3 states in 4 households within 5 years.
Teri discussed how legalizing gay marriage invited a whole new level of marketing children and how Lesbians are at risk of being first world sex slaves. The national crisis of judicial abuse is can be a gender issue, as well as income issues, race issue, preferential/opinion issue. However, none of it is legal. Survivors must stop segregating over these reasons why and start uniting to end immunity without attorney or jury. An antiquated, monarchical system is not democratic.
Survivors of domestic violence by proxy are organizing. We are growing and advocating against parental deprivation/alienation. Accusations are a weapon of mass destruction. The ADA, the constitution, even the Bible cannot protect us from slander. Teri states that our mental health is crucial, and we must be dedicated to surviving and healing as a full-time job. Our parenthood is not contingent on our children's presence, neither is our mental health. Teri encourages parents to stop sitting in your own TRAUMA and start living in your HEALING.

Sam Sugar, M.D. Speaks Out On The Beginning, The Middle And The End Of Abusive Guardianships Mar 14, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes Dr. Sam Sugar to the show. He is a medical doctor and a founder and president of Americans Against Abusive Probate Guardianship. This is an organization designed to help expose the corruption of this nation's guardianship systems.
Dr. Sugar received his M.D. from the Abraham Lincoln College of Medicine at the University of Illinois, Chicago. He also achieved certification as a specialist in internal medicine from the American Board of Internal Medicine and was distinguished as a fellow of the American College of Physicians.
He has served as the director for managed care at Evanston/Northwestern Healthcare. Dr. Sugar has also taught at both Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine and the Chicago Medical School.
In 2014, after experiencing the horrors of guardianship firsthand, Dr. Sugar teamed up to create the Americans Against Abusive Probate Guardianship.
Currently, Dr. Sugar lives in Hollywood, Florida with his wife Judy.
Dr. Sugar was explaining that the public is naive to the fact that Guardianships are hidden from public view and that the public needs to understand how serious this actually is. Between 90% of all American families consider themselves dysfunctional, so dysfunctional parents produce dysfunctional children and this is known as intergeneration dysfunction and disgruntled siblings find themselves financial targets when they don't know what to do with an elderly parent's financial and medical issues.
This is a very complex dynamic not recognized by the court system. Perhaps they are unaware of it or intentionally ignoring the issues related to Guardianships. We discussed "Epigenetics." The stresses on families and individuals who have taken care of an elderly parent and find themselves and their loved one destroyed by these Guardianships.
Profit is what drives the abuse across the country known as professional Guardianships. Guardianships cannot be fixed, but possibly re-imagined. As a society, we need to take a serious look at how we handle infirmities in the elderly, disabled and handicapped and how we can do better as a country intaking care of people that need help.

Monica Griego Updates Us With Her Ongoing CYFD Case, Her Children And Helpful Meditations Mar 13, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes back Monica Griego from New Mexico back to the show. Monica was last on the show January 8, 2022, Season 3, Episode #2. Providing us with new updates to her case, Monica discussed Constitutional Rights and encouraged parents to push for their Parental Rights, and to go to parentalrights.org for information . Monica asks for parents to do this for their children. Monica states that in the future, once our children have grown up, will not be "nice" to America or other countries because of what CPS/Foster Care has done to their Mothers, Fathers, Grandparents and extended family.
We discussed Monica's case and how her girls are still on trial home visits with Dad. However, the girls show up for visits with their mother not bathed, hungry and tired, and unkempt. However, Monica has a new Supervisor. Monica was able to attend her daughter's optometrist appointment. Her daughter will do anything to come back home and she is more focused on herself. Monica had brought her daughters snacks that day as well. Her daughter whispered to her mother, "your attorney is an idiot," and continued to state, "she is on Daddy's side." Monica is unable to obtain her own case file, which is her right to have.
Monica talked about how Parental Alienation is continuing more so in her one daughter. This is concerning for Monica and did give parents advice. She told parents not to agree to a safety plan and don't sign one. Monica explained the, "Unconscionable Contract" and that it is a one-sided contract and that a person can't get out of it legally either.
Monica also talked about relaxation techniques. She recommended Access Consciousness and how it helps with experiences with past/present trauma and that janicebiondo.com can help parents find resources in their states for Access Consciousness. She also recommended the App, ACIM and how that helps with meditation.

Ben Tomes, Author, MMA Coach Speaks Out On Taking On Family Court In An MMA Cage: Waging A Literal Fight For His Daughter Mar 08, 2022

Show notes

Slam the Gavel welcomes Ben Tomes to the show. He is an award-winning wrestling and mixed martial arts coach as well as an author of the Confessions of the Unmedicated Mind series and an alienated parent.
At age 49, he recently made the 2nd oldest debut MMA fight ever as part of an upcoming book and documentary about parental alienation entitled Proxy War. Ben discussed his time in Family Court along with a Guardian Ad Litem who did not function appropriately in her job capacity. The Family Court battle is decided before it get started.
Ben explained that the alienation began even before his daughter was born and the groundwork was laid long before he and his future wife had married. There were consistent patterns. It seems that Empaths find themselves to be intercepted by Narcissists and BiPolar Personality Disorders. There is hidden trauma in families who then cover it up and it perpetuates into Parental Alienation and this evolves, manifesting itself as a child grows up.
We discussed how to deal with the Narcissist behaviors and how judges and attorneys seem to have the same traits.
There was symbolism relating to the goings on in family court and fighting in an MMA fight. Ben talked about his family dynamics and how parental alienation manifested itself in his youngest. The divorce/family court industry works with the same incestuous spinning wheel with no justice in sight as the rabbit holes reach deep. Parents find themselves railroaded as their case ends up hijacked by money-hungry attorneys, GAL's and caseworkers.
But there are other ways to approach the system in another manner albeit a humorous one.
