64. Ron Platt — Divorce Insurance, Foster Care Reform & Protecting Families in Crisis
In this powerful and deeply human episode of The Undeletable Dad Podcast, Tracy Poizner sits down with Ron Platt - serial entrepreneur, foster father, and systems-level advocate for families navigating divorce and parental alienation.
Ron shares the personal journey that led him to create the first divorce insurance product of its kind, alongside a national membership organization designed to support single and divorced families holistically — financially, emotionally, and structurally.
This episode is essential listening for fathers who want to protect their relationship with their children, even when life throws unexpected obstacles in the way.
Ron’s foster parenting journey
How becoming a foster father reshaped his understanding of family, permanence, boundaries, and advocacy — and what it taught him about children who’ve experienced trauma and instability.
Why traditional systems fail divorced families
From courts to child support enforcement to mental health access, Ron breaks down where the cracks are — and why parents often fall through them.
The creation of Divorce Insurance (Support Insured)
A groundbreaking insurance product that ensures child support and alimony payments continue in situations where the paying parent:
Dies
Becomes disabled
Is involuntarily unemployed
Declares business bankruptcy
This protection prevents parents from being labeled “deadbeats” due to circumstances beyond their control — and protects children from sudden financial disruption.
How Support Insured actually works
Affordable annual premiums
Coverage tied only to court-ordered support amounts
Up to 12 months of continued payments during hardship
Available to either parent
Why this matters for fathers facing high-conflict divorce
Financial collapse often leads to loss of parenting time, court sanctions, and alienation. This product helps fathers stabilize during crisis — without losing access to their children.
The mission of NASDF (National Association for Single & Divorced Families)
A first-of-its-kind membership organization offering:
Free & discounted mental health support
Career and employment resources
Childcare and family discounts
Advocacy for foster care reform
Programs aimed at preventing intergenerational poverty
Foster care reform & child advocacy
Ron explains how privatization, instability, and lack of consistent therapeutic care harm foster children — and what systemic changes must happen next.
Divorce doesn’t just separate families — it exposes them to financial, emotional, and institutional risk.
This episode shines a light on practical solutions, not platitudes. Ron Platt isn’t theorizing — he’s building infrastructure that protects parents and children when life doesn’t go according to plan.
If you’re a father navigating:
Divorce or post-divorce instability
Child support pressure
Fear of losing access to your kids
Systemic unfairness
…this conversation will give you clarity, options, and hope.
