Parental Alienation video

This is a video about parental alienation. Children should not have to pick one parent over the other. It is not an either or situation. Parents made this child together and even though they may not live in the same house, they should have the best interests of the child at heart and that is to have a healthy, loving and caring relationship with both parents. Divorce is hard enough on children. Why would a parent want to add to the stress and confusion of their own flesh and blood? That is not a parent, but a vindictive ex spouse who uses their child as a pawn in their game. Parental alienation is child abuse. When will this abuse end?

  2. Dear alienated mother,

    I want to say how sorry I am that you are a targeted parent. I know from my extensive research into this topic that the heartbreak and grief is never-ending. I also wanted to let you know about my own website devoted to the topic where you can find out about my research on adults who -- as children -- were alienated from a parent due to the actions and attitudes of the other parent. You may find some insight and cause for hope there.

    Best,

  4. I am so sorry you have to go through this. I am currently going through it as well with my husband and his children. I want to start talking to the state senators and our politicans. Something has to be done. These kids need someone to speak for them.

    You are so right that the children need someone to speak for them. The alienating parent does all the talking and thinking for the children though. Then the children parrot the alienating parent. SAD! Politicians and senators seem unconcerned, even bothered by target parents contacting them over this....UNLESS they are aware of PA. As target parents we can not give up, keep talking, keep contacting the higher ups. Eventually our voices will be heard.
    I am so sorry that you and your husband are experiencing this. Remain constant in your love for the children and don;t let the alienating parent push those buttons.
