What happens when the system built to protect is used to punish? In this episode of the Better Bloke Project, we sit down with Jared Purcell, host of the Broken Fathers podcast, to unpack the emotional and legal minefield that many Aussie dads find themselves in. We explore the family court system, lawyers promoting false domestic violence allegations, and how these accusations can tear fathers from their children with little recourse. This isn’t a rage-fuelled rant… it’s a nuanced, respectful conversation about a system that desperately needs reform. We acknowledge the importance of DV protections for women and children, and this conversation never denies that. But there’s another side to this story that’s not being told - one where good men are being broken by a process that too often assumes guilt before innocence. If you’ve been through it, you’ll feel seen. If you haven’t, this might change how you see the entire system. See more from Jared: https://www.youtube.com/@Broken.fathers.podcast
