Rewind: Make more of this wonderful film

We featured one scene from a Dutch TV documentary before – The two truths of torn up letters. There is an (as yet) unpublished English-subtitled version called: Rewind. We must find ways to make much more of it.  The full story plainly underlines several key lessons

Taking Alienation seriously … and getting taken seriously

Writing a blog is easy but mostly reaches the converted. Getting Parental Alienation into a professional journal is a golden achievement, making wider professionals take notice. But getting well-covered in the public media is perhaps the hardest publicity of all. An

Climbing the mountain: 3. In courts

Now on to Part 3 (of 9) of climbing the mountain of high conflict family separation of all kinds. See Introduction, and Before court. Or read the whole lot at once – with feedback added in.  Inevitably there is a British flavour to all this, but the issues are

Pairing up Abduction and Alienation

What’s the difference between Parental Child Abduction and Parental Child Alienation? Not a lot. Recently looking at cults and hostage-taking, we saw how close Abduction and Alienation were. Abduction is a quick way to do the same as Alienation does slowly.

Anna Karenina and alienation

A very modern real custody battle is in the news. This has been covered well by BBC R4 Today (1hr 47m), Judge Wildblood’s judgement (using and praising the media), and Karen Woodall’s post (and concern for what may now be made of it) – and no

Considering abuse of the targeted parent

My work with “Rob” continues (see A 1000 tiny poisonous needles with Warshak et al comments). It remains a painful challenge of sustained alienation during contact with his children.  On his website Joseph Goldberg talks about the essential place of a parental alienation consultant and the right assembly of
