PAS is real. Here is my personal experience with it. This video should be seen by every domestic court judge and every guardian ad litem in the country. Warning, strong language.

I believe that this problem is very infuriating due to the fact that it is about a married couple who have made vows to live happily together. Any married couple is going against this "vow" because if parents are going to be like this to their husbands or wives then they shouldn't have even gotten married in the first place. Marriage is such a beautiful thing and this is anything close to beauty. To any couples out there that are soon getting married; always ask yourself if you are willing to always keep that promise.

Recently the courts have revealed that a Solano County Judge had sexual intercourse with a female juror. Some judges don’t know when to keep their wick to themselves and dry. I have nothing good to say about the female juror except that her conduct is less surprising today than it would have been 25 years ago. The point is this, would you want this judge to decide what is in the best interest of a child?

For those you that are so blatently attacking the other gender,
yes
it happens to good and bad parents but, as parants we should not be holding a fighting match between adults. Maybe all the good parents should keep striving a way to win the battle against abusive parents.. It amost killed me to watch my child go through this and, were still dealing with it. I have un-deniable proof as i've documented the abuse for the childs first couple years of what ended with me raising our child alone for seven years, and, still I lost. I HAVE CUSTODY I have a book to write someday on the way I lost custody for ten mths. After taking care of our child exceptionally well. I just hung in there and, put things into Gods hands. Its cost me everything I had but, Against emotional and physical abuse of our child I'd do it again.

Parental Alienation Syndrome is not a medical disorder, it is a behavior chosen by a selfish and arrogant and insolent parent that leads to willful alienation of a child’s affections. This is child abuse.

I have been divorced from my ex for 9 yrs now. He is a controlling, , irresponsible, manipulative, emotionally abusive person and that's why I left him. But he made it very clear to me the day when he stated he would take his hatred for me it to his grave. Even with the kind of person his is towards me, I have never tried to take time away from him with our boys and I keep my thoughts about him as a person to myself. However, he has tried everything from day one to destroy the relationship I have with the children. I have even been accused of child abuse. Our boys will say and do anything to appease their dad. They show no respect or real love towards me as their own mother. I am heartbroken. I have been fighting against this issue for years but nothing seems to matter. And the courts don't care or don't want to deal with it and frankly, I don't have the funds, to keep continuing the battle. I just had to basically let their dad have even more time with the boys. Every other week for a full week. I don't see things getting any better with their behavior or emotionally having more time with the parent who hates the other, but all I can do is just hope and pray that someday the boys will see the truth for what it is, on their own. I just have to keep pressing forward and keep being the loving mother I am.

My husband and i have been together for 10 and a half years now,We have 4 children together 3 from his previous and 1 from mine. I have helped raise the girls since they were 4 years old and the little guy since he was 7 months old, unfortunately i have had to deal with my husbands ex-wife for 10 and a half years as well. As the years have passed and her continuos failed relationships and two failed marriages she has become more and more difficulte. Difficulte is not even close to discribe this person she is a viscous virus that has completely encapsulated our childrens minds with her psychotic lies and every waking moment to destroy any love our son and daughters had for us. Heres the kicker we have been battling this women for all these years and more for my husband, we recently went back to court in June of 2010 to have custody changed because she had alienated and brain washed the kids so severly that they would not see or speak to us for almost a year we never gave up trying to pick them up for visitation she has violated every court order, has been indicated by DCFS, has been arrested numerous time's for contributing to minors, all of my step-kids had stright F's and had over 41 infractions in school. She was ordered by court to relocate to the neighborhood and school where we live, we have custody of the kids 60% of the time it has become a nightmare with her near she harasses us all the time, and has tried to run me off the road with her car and has become more violent. Our relationship with the kids was finally coming around and we were all happy,of course it was absolute torture like breaking a wild horse or training a wild dog,we had over come that task but as soon as that happended, this nut put her meat hooks back into the kids our eldest daughter won't even visit or talk to us and now her and the nut are dragging our middle daughter into the swamp by telling her she is fragile and sick and she needs them,they break her down like a cookie would crumble so they can be the heros to put her back together. Now our middle daughter is doing the same to our 10 year old every day by mentaly abuseing him and trying to get him to turn on us he is so tormented by them his moods alter by the minute. This is where we hit dead end, trying to row up stream with out a paddle because there is nothing anyone can do to stop this madness, the therapist that was involved with the case tried to tell the court and the judge that this women was incapable of ever being a parent and expressed the same to the GAL that was appointed. The judge had said this was the most volatile case he had ever heard of along with all of the other attorneys involved and yet they did nothing but make matters worse and give us a life sentence of torment because the court system refuse to do anything. The court system is a joke. And now my Daughter is being harassed by my step-daughters and thier crazy mother at school and at home. Our torment is that we love the kids so much
