サマリー
あらすじ・解説
In this episode of Torn, Classie and Sonia are joined by Roxanne Logan—attorney, clinical social worker, and longtime advocate—for a conversation about how parenting classes are used in the child welfare system. Together, they examine why these classes are often mandatory, rarely relevant, and disconnected from the realities of Black and Brown families.
They share firsthand stories from the field, discuss how culture and survival shape parenting, and call out the deeper issue: a system more focused on compliance than care. From court orders to funding streams, this episode takes a critical look at how the system fails to meet families where they are—and what needs to change.
