A Rose By Any Other Name...

I stumbled across this blog titled Parental Alienation Witch Hunt quite by accident. It was an eye opening experience. I thought I would share it with my readers to see what your reaction is to the claims that the whole concept of Parental Alienation is just a, quote, "custody racket".

You can read it and make your own conclusion:Parental Alienation Witch Hunt: Action: Tell Your Governors To REJECT Declaration of Parental Alienation Awareness Day You can add whatever comments that you think are appropriate.

I do understand that the use of the term parental alienation could and most likely has been used in a manner that would not be appropriate. People have a way of taking something completely benign and turning it all around to misuse it for their own purposes despite the facts.

When an abusive parents uses the issue of Parental Alienation to gain access to a child, that is a terrible, terrible situation. Any caring human being would not support that. The laws and justice system have been and always will be manipulated by people with their own agendas.

I propose this challenge:
If you doubt the existence of parental alienation, then send your child to live with your worst enemy, who will prevent all contact between you and your child and see IF over time your child can be taught to hate you enough to disown you.

I've heard that Lady Justice is blind.....what a shame that she's apparently lost her ability to hear the suffering of the children and lost her ability to use common sense to help bring suffering children back into the arms of the parents who will REALLY do understand the definition of "In The Best Interest Of The Child"

You will find a goodly number of vile, vindictive, cruel, narcissistic, insecure, - gosh there are so many descriptions of them I will stop. By and large you should ignore them. They are ideologues whose minds are made up and grasp at any factoids they can find. They believe most men are abusers and PA is something we use to manipulate the system. They have greater difficulty when it is a woman affected and can;t explain it away quite as easily. Its called cognitive dissonance.

What we who have been affected by PA do know is that it is real. What adult children of PA know is the devastating impact it can have when they find out the truth.

I caught your post on a Google Alert so if you ever need to chat I'm usually not far away. I'm slowing being able to help my 2 children who have been impacted by it with the youngest doing much better now emotionally. It takes time and patience plus contact and that is something you aren't getting based on your posts.

Best wishes.

Hi,
I read your article yesterday, and would also say the exact same thing that Mike stated.

There are a group of evil, hateful women who believe Parental Alienation is a "defense" only used by Men That Batter, or "Abusers." This is patently false.

I know many women who were and are alienated from the children by men that suffer from this sociopathic illness. Parental Alienation and Parental Alienation Syndrome is a real illness and both men and women engage in it.

That a woman would engage in this kind of behavior is beyond this vile group of women's consciousness. For the most part they suffer from narcissism or any one of the DSM-IV Axis II disorders such as Borderline, Histrionic, Oppositional Defiant Disorder and even Paranoid Personality Disorder.

In the state of California, we finally have the Family Law section of the ABA, the Judicial Council, and the California APA on the side of children, and three time anti-Parental Alienation laws were tossed out of the California Legislature before they could even get out of committee. Take heart.

There are many PA resources and links.

Thank you Mark for your comment. Reading about California's laws makes me wish that we lived there too or that Texas had such laws to help free the children of Parental Alienation. Rinda will turn 18 years old in a little over 8 months and new laws will come to late to help her, but I still pray for the change in the law for all the other children living in the darkness of Parental Alienation
