  • One small victory for the children whos lives were forever changed by this garbage. Now it is time for Justice to all the child victims of crime whos justice was denied and then were placed in known abusers homes.
  • It is time to return the children to the portective parent before another innocent life is lost because of parental alienation and its mis-use by many other terms. Time for a White House address on this human rights violation against children. Time to take a stand against parental alienation mis-use threw out our justice systems. Time to petition the White house to address the human rights violations that occur when parental alienation is allowed to run our child abuse court systems.

  • “Parental Alienation Syndrome:" Another Alarming DSM-5 Proposal

    Using a medicalizing label to mask child sexual abuse
    Published on June 6, 2011 by Paula J. Caplan, Ph.D. in Science Isn't Golden
    On June 9, 2011, I was one of three recipients of a letter from DSM-5 Task Force Chair David Kupfer and DSM-5 Task Force Public Representative James McNulty (see my earlier essays on this site about the conference call with them in which I was a minor participant). Kupfer and McNulty said that their letter was in response to a list of questions we had sent in the hope that they could be discussed during our conference call many weeks ago. The news in their letter is that: "...because of the high evidence threshold required, the Task Force is not currently recommending the inclusion of Parental Alienation Syndrome." This is a stunning comment, coming as it does from the heads of a manual in which so many diagnostic categories have been included despite there being no solid scientific evidence even supporting their existence or characteristics. Based on other kinds of decisions the DSM-5 people have been making, it seems unlikely that concern about the lack of scientific evidence is the real reason they have chosen to exclude it. One wonders what might be.

Walker, L. E., Brantley, K. L., & Rigsbee, J. A. (2005). A Critical Analysis of Parental Alienation Syndrome and Its Admissibility in the Family Court. Journal of Child Custod y, 1(2), 47-74. [ download from Haworth $ ] ABSTRACT: Over the past three decades, a syndrome, titled Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS), has been proposed to explain behaviors by a child who refuses to spend time with a parent and actually denigrates that parent within the context of a child custody dispute. The association of certain negative behaviors by one parent (called the 'alienator') towards the other parent (called the 'target parent') are said to be the cause of the child's (called 'alienated child') behavior. Although some mental health professionals and child custody evaluators, attorneys, and judges have been quick to accept and admit PAS as evidence in these disputes, especially in those that have cross-complaints alleging family violence, there has been no consiste...

EXCERPTS FROM Richard Gardner's Remedies for Parental Alienation Syndrome

EXCERPTS FROM The New Randi James: Richard Gardner's Remedies for     courts have ordered children into jail and juvenile homes as part of Gardner's recommended " threat therapy " ... The judge concluded that his "treatment" for parental alienation had worked (E. www.randijames.com/2009/02/richard-gardners-remedies-fo... Richard Gardner's Remedies for Parental Alienation Syndrome ( emphasis mine ) Gardner's "remedy" for purportedly severe PAS is extreme, including complete denial of maternal–child contact and "de-programming" the child through a concerted brainwashing effort to change the child's beliefs that they have been abused (Bruch, 2001; Gardner, 1992a; see also www.rachelfoundation.org ). In more than one case, children subjected to these procedures have become suicidal, and in some cases killed themselves , in reaction to court orders to live with the father they said abused them (Bruch, 2001; Hoult, 2006...
