Parent Alienation aka Parent Alienation Syndrome(PAS)

Recently I came across an australian organization mimicking the widespread corruption in the USA where it has become so well accepted, that they even include it as a syndrome. It has not been accepted as a real syndrome by the American Psychological Association and to state it as "controversial" is an understatement. The mens organizations have been using victims of intimate partner terrorism to try and validate it as a syndrome by isolating one behavior that is part of a string other behaviors amounting to the terrorism as a means of justifying the existence of PAS.  This is a very sad encounter as on one hand these same organizations would like to also promote that intimate partner terrorism does not exist.  Some have even gone to the extent that they have justified those who have murdered and blamed the victim for what triggered them to do such a cruel and inhumane act.  The fact is that there is just no amount of lies and manipulation that is going to cover the abuse that is being done to the child and one day that parent is going to have to take some responsibility.  

As we have seen with Alec Baldwin who was spouting how he was a victim of Parental Alienation Syndrome, when in reality he was a victim of his own actions.  This is what is occurring in a majority of cases.  One could ask the Jihads whether they consider themselves to be terrorists and perhaps rather than stating that, they would find a way that would avoid facing the home truths of their actions towards others.  Perhaps if the jihads went to the family court in Gardeners time, he would have found a psychological explanation that would have drawn sympathy to them and hate toward their accusers.  This is precisely what is going on in our courts not confined to Australia, but everywhere that it has spread like a western disease to equality and safety for children.  They often claim that it is child abuse but the lies and deceit that promote Parent Alienation as a syndrome is the real abuse here, not to mention the excuses to draw assistance from family law practitioners, counsellors and Judges in proving the perfect environment to not only continue the abuse, but also conceal it.  Counsellors pitching "deprogramming centers" where they use manipulative techniques to coerce children into believing their abuse was a lie perpetuated by the mother.  We are going to have a hell of a lot of people in the future that are extremely traumatized by that, if some intervention and common sense is not used now.  

Mens organizations often refer to Dr Richard Gardner when discussing PAS, but rarely approach his quotes about promoting pedophilia.  Some try to weasel out of it by stating his later comments about pedophilia, but it simply does not undo the damage it has done, how it is used and most importantly, the impact that this continues to have upon child and adult victims of family violence.  It is a masquerade that survivors and advocates know all too well.  

When a child is speaking of horrific abuse experiences, it is terrible when this is ignored or doubted.  Thats one thing, but when a child is punished for breaking their silence - that is beyond human and frankly it is in reality, pure evil.  

It should be illegal to force children to be subjected to torturous and ineffective evaluations and therapies.

A step father in texas had stated that his wife's son was subjected to shock treatment and drugs to change the childs view that they had been abused.  A growing network of young people called, "The courageous kids Network" are speaking out against what was done to them whilst the abuse was been denied.  Mens Organizations have tried to denounce them too.  

What Can I do?

There are a few indicators where you can assess where a corrupt PAS case has occurred and publicize your outrage, so that people are more aware.  Here are a few indicators:

1. The word "alienation" is used to determine supervised visitation or no contact from the mother.
2. The mother is ordered not to take the children to the doctor or not to investigate allegations of child abuse.
3. The mother is ordered not to photograph bruises.
4. Masquerade diagnosis's are used to determine the reversal of custody with "Munchausen by proxy syndrome", "depression" or "Borderline Personality disorder" without an independent opinion(outside the court).
5. The child's resistance to visiting the abuser is ignored.
6. Suggestions from her reactions to the courts negligence lead them to conclude that there is something mentally wrong.
7. More of a concern is directed to the mothers behavior than of a criminal record that is inclusive of sex offending.

The above are indicators that you can use to determine online judgements.  These are personal indicators for advocates and mothers in family court cases:

1. After you disclose your child's abuse allegations, psychiatrist evaluation is ordered.
2. Your lawyer tells you that photos, medical records and police reports are not evidence.
3. You are ordered to deliver your child to unsupervised visitation despite your concerns.
4. You are questioned more on how you asked the child, how you feel about the father rather than the allegation and evidence that you have.
5. You are often interrupted by the judge when you begin to speak about your case and the focus is diverted to "father time".
6. The judge admits openly that they didn't bother reading your evidence, but knows very well about the fathers.
7. Annoyance is expressed at your concerns for safety when there is a known history of violence.
8. The history of violence against you is perceived as "the past" when it occurred months ago before you obtained the restraining order.
9. You are made to attend court dates, appointments and appearances with little notice when he was notified months earlier.
10. The restraining order is used against you.
