Parental Alienation
What is Parental Alienation?
Many people and learned professionals will try to convince you that P.A. does noe exist, but instead one parent whining about the other parent; some orgainizations will have you believe that parental alienation is just an attack on women. Those of us know that parental alienation does infact exist that it is not whining or an attack on women, but a form of psychological child abuse.
Parental Alienation is when one parent puts down the other parent in front of or directs it to the child(ren). Its results are low self esteem, anger towards the alienating parent, pity and sadness towards the alienated parent and failure. They feel that they are the cause for the fighting and arguing. When one parent calls the other parent names they are also calling the child the same names as the child knows that they are part or both of their parents.
So the next time that someone tries to tell you that Parental Alienation does not exist, look into the faces of your children who are in the middle of the custody battles, see the disappointment and hurt and then tell yourself that it does exist and that you are going to do what ever it takes to not see that look again.
The History or Story Behind My Site
In December of 2006 I finally had a breaking point. I could no longer take my ex-wife alienating our child against me. I felt that the courts wouldnt listen or my court appointed therapist. I knew what she was doing in her alienating our child against me, I just didnt know there was a name for it. I researched the topic on line and found parental-alienation-awareness.com and become part of their cause. Soon I had a support group, judges speaking at special event and even a Certificate of Recognition for Parental Alienation.
A Special Thanks!!
I wish to thank Robin, Survy and Parental Alienation Awareness for all the work that they do in helping those who are affected by this horrible form of child abuse. If it wasnt for Robin, Survy and their organization I would not be as informed about parental alienation as I am today and I would not have the support group or website to help others who are affected by this.
Thank You Robin and Survy
