Summary
With The Respondent: Exposing the Cartel of Family Law, Hollywood veteran Greg Ellis delivers a gripping, unvarnished first-person account of family breakdown and the social, political, and legal forces that are fueling this national health emergency. It further exposes and condemns a gender bias that presumes that fathers are less effective caregivers.
Family breakdown is the single greatest threat to American society. Every day, more than four thousand children lose a parent because of our archaic and inhumane family-court system. Every day, ten divorced men commit suicide. And now, one in three children in our country are without their father.
The Respondent is Ellis’s personal story about a Hollywood dream razed by internal and external forces. Part memoir, part meditation, and part manifesto, it’s a timely and heartrending portrait of perhaps the most misunderstood aspect of the American legal system. Through its candor and moral strength, The Respondent offers guidance and hope. As such, it’s an indispensable listen for not only parents enduring the grief of child separation, but all interested in learning about the gross overreach and unrelenting brutality of family law.

Harsh!
A dystopian read and a damning reflection of abused legal authority. I feel traumatised! I've passed this in the hope it will spread hope to others under seige.

scary
It is so sad to see how false reporting, rumour and opinionated, not to mention greedy professionals can so easily tear children from a loving and responsible parent.

Harrowing Look Into How The Family Court System Attacks & Capitalises On Loving Fathers
This book really shook me to the core, as a married man and a loving father it is fair to say that this man has truly lived the horror of a father worst nightmare.
The vindictive nature of a scorned and anxiety ridden woman is no shock, but the complete enablement of her cruelty by the system was enough to make my stomach turn.
This book should be essential reading for anyone choosing a life partner, not to scare them away but to help them understand how important it is to very carefully assess who you choose to invest yourself with.
It has long been my understanding that an angry man will strike with his fists, but an angry woman will strike with a thousand fists of a thousand angry and kind men alike… often with the point of a finger.

A must read
Loved it.! Heartbreaking as to what's really going on under the guise of "family law". Everyone should read this book. Fathers and mothers. It might make someone sit back and think before they put the children and family through this..

Greg
This book is so angering. A father desperately wants to see his kids and his loon tune of a wife won’t let him. One day those kids will seek him out and probably say ba bye to the mom.

Now worth reading
If this book was entitled: "Don't get married and have children until you read this story", I think it would have some worth, but it doesn't. It is simply a story of a man who lost his case to see his children and wants to put his story forward even though his story wasn't bought in court. If you read the stories subjectively, you begin to question the man's judgement.
After watching him on Youtube, I was really looking forward to listing to the book but was totally disappointing.
The book is a modern-day tragedy.
