I was happy to hear from the Parental Alienation Awareness Organization that seven governors have either issued Proclamations or Recognition of April 25th as Parental Alienation Awareness Day. I’d like to publically thank the following Governors for doing the right thing. When it is so easy to find victims of parental alienation, I simply can’t understand why some people are trying to pass laws so the term “parental alienation” can’t be used in family court. Parental Alienation is even listed in Wikipedia.
If you have some extra time, please thank these progressive Governors:
Connecticut – Governor Rell
Iowa – Governor Vilsack
Kentucky – Governor Fletcher
Maine – Governor Baldacci
Montana – Governor Schweitzer
Nebraska – Governor Heineman
Nevada – Governor Gibbons

JUST IN FROM THE UK:
A petition regarding parental alienation:
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to recognise
Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS) as emotional and
psychological child abuse.
Every day children are being alienated (brain washed) against
the ‘non-resident parent’, usually the father, by the ‘resident
parent’, usually the mother, and as a result a child suffers
from Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS).
The effect of a PAS sufferer is that child not wanting anything
to do with the parent they have been alienated against.
PAS is emotional and psychological child abuse and should be
treated with the same seriousness as all the other forms of
child abuse.
Sign the petition HERE.

Ottawa mayor, Larry O’Brien set to declare April 25, 2007 as awareness day for Parental Alienation Syndrome.
Radio www.news957.com looks at 2 forms of mind poisoning:
(PAS), in which custodial parents do everything possible to turn children against the other parent (usually against their fathers)
1) Extreme method:
This practice has the alienating parent constantly bombarding the children with malice against other parent … to the point that the kids hate them, or at least fear the wrath of the alienating parent if the youngster shows any interest in visiting with the other parent:
“Your mom is bad”
” Your dad is irresponsible, and a low-life”
” Mom does not want you”
” Father is a deadbeat”
” He doesn’t pay enough child support, so you cannot have the bicycle you want”
Eventually the barrage takes its toll on the youngster’s mind, so he refuses contact with with the absent parent.
2) Insidious, underhanded method:
This technique is so slippery it is difficult to counteract. It cons the child away from the other parent with “cookies and candies”, each time the youngster is scheduled to visit:
“The rest of us are going to the fair to ride the roller coaster — But you can go to the visit with [the other parent], if you want.”
2 weeks later, before the next visitation time, “Your brother and sister are going to Joey’s birthday party for balloons and cake and games — But you can go to the visit with your [other parent], if you want”
2 weeks later, before the next visitation, “We are going camping with Uncle Joe — But you can go to the visit with your [other parent], if you want.”
