Cloak and Dagger

Cloak and Dagger



Most of us growing up were afraid of the dark. As Children we often thought that the

dark corners of our bedrooms and closets and even under our beds held monsters and

things that went bump in the night. But our mothers or fathers would come in and

reassure us that there were no monsters in the dark.



Now as adults we are once again afraid of the dark. The darkness that, more often then

not hold once again the monsters lurking but this time in the corners of our minds and our

lives. These monsters are the Family Court Judges that hide in the dark of their insidious

robes. This time those telling us that there are no monsters in the Dark are not our parents

but our attorneys. They assure us that the Judge is being fair and unbiased. But we know

the truth. A lot of the times our attorneys are just an extension of that darkness. Bringing

like lambs to the slaughter.



The monsters that we now face are not the monsters that go away when we close our eyes

and think to ourselves “you’re not real, you’re not real”. Try doing that in court and you

will find out just how real these monsters are. What we need to do instead is open our

eyes and see, they don’t even bother hiding like wolves in sheep’s clothing they are right

there surrounded and cloaked in black.



There was a comic I use to read as a child, “Cloak and Dagger”. “Cloak and Dagger”

was a Marvel Comic of the 80’s in which Dagger would bring evil people to the Cloak

and force them to face their evilness. Cloak would at times absorb the evil. Well, that my

friends is basically the Family Court Judge. A Cloak of evil and darkness, waiting to be

unleashed upon someone, most of the time it’s you or I.



Generally, Judges do not want to even see the child that you and your ex are fighting in

court over. If they did, they may have to listen to their conscience, if they even have one.

By the time the child is allowed in court to tell the Judge what he or she wants its already

to late. Your child is already so brained washed manipulated by the other parent or afraid

to say what they really want that it’s even worse for you if they do. You know the old

adage; “if you’re not sure what the answers going to be or if you already know the

answer and don’t like it, don’t ask the question.”



So what are we suppose to do, just let the courts and our ex’s take our children away

from us with out a fight, or as people always tell you, “Wait until he’s 18 then he will

come around and make up his own mind”. You do that and it’s the same as giving up on

your child. By the time they are 18 they are so much more brain washed and filled with

depression, anger, hatred not only towards you but themselves as well. They feel that you

don’t love them because you didn’t fight for them and they listen to their parent; the one

alienating your child from you, and they believe them because you are not there to defend

your self.



That takes us back once again to “Cloak”, you go to court and fight for the right of your

custody visits without being manipulated by your ex and the Judge gets tired of your

whining. Now days’, whining is what the Judges, Attorneys and Family Court Therapists

refer to as Parental Alienation. They see it that since they don’t or won’t see your child

behind closed doors in their chambers and get the truth from them, that all we are doing is

whining. That Parental Alienation does not exist at all.



We must be like “Dagger” and "Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His

might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the

wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against

principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against

spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.



"Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the

evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with

truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the

preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you

will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.



"And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;

praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end

with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints...." Ephesians 6:10-18
