​The Parental Alienation Syndrome
By Linda J. Gottlieb Kase
BOOK REVIEW BY WILLIAM BERNET

In this thought-provoking book, Ms.Gottlieb attempts to resolve the controversies surrounding Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS) by providing substantial empirical evidence from her treatment cases in support of the eight symptoms which child psychiatrist, Richard Gardner, had identified as occurring in the PAS child, and she further exemplifies the commonality of the alienating maneuvers among the alienating parents. The author redefines the typically-held characterization of the parents’ relationship as portrayed in the pertinent literature and accepted by most PAS-aware professionals. Numerous case examples are explored: horrific tales of manufactured child abuse; referrals to child protective services (CPS) resulting in suspension of visits between targeted parents and their children; meritless reports to police alleging domestic violence in support of orders of protection which slander and stigmatize targeted parents; exclusionary tactics preventing targeted parents’

involvement in their children’s medical, educational, social lives and activities; and depletion of targeted parents’ resources due to legal fees required to defend himself/herself and to obtain judicial enforcement of parental rights. Ms. Gottlieb methodically documents that PAS is a form of emotional child abuse of the severest kind. The author provides an unprecedented number of treatment summaries, which demonstrate the effectiveness of structural family therapy in treating the PAS family. To further elucidate the subject, the author interviewed several matrimonial attorneys, Law Guardians, and forensic evaluators regarding their experiences with PAS, and she incorporated their thoughts into her recommendations as to how the mental health and judicial communities should resolve this situation in the best interests of the child. “New Rules” are suggested which encourage a collaborative rather than an adversarial approach to child custody. This book will be an

excellent resource for parents who are divorcing or are in conflict, for adult-child victims of PAS, for mature children of divorcing parents, for judges, for Law Guardians, for matrimonial attorneys, for therapists, for child protective personnel, for law enforcement– and for the professional rescuer who believes that a child must be saved from a parent.

Clawar and Rivilin's Book

This is the 2nd Edition of this book.
Picture
In Children Held Hostage, Stanley Clawar and Brynne Rivlin use important new research involving over 1,000 families to demonstrate that children can and are being used by parents in the divorce battle. Their research shows how negative actions by parents toward their children show up in court proceedings where children testify or are questioned by mental health professionals. The major issue in confronting this problem of programmed and brainwashed children has been identification of a child alienated by one parent against the other; proving it in court; and then finding a solution that not only works, but that a court will buy into. The updated edition of Children Held Hostage explains these issues in detail, with practice-focused explanations on every step in the process. The authors offer further insights into gender issues and differences. Other new material includes a social-psychological profile of programmers and brainwashers; identification of the most commonly asked questions by judges, target parents, lawyers and children; an expanded social explanation to the causes, impact, and interventions; development of an abductor profile; charts to visualize key findings and processes; and much more.

Parental Alienation – Science and Law
This remarkable book addresses—in a comprehensive manner—one of the most contentious issues in contemporary forensic psychology and child psychology: parental alienation.  Parental Alienation – Science and Law has three major themes: (1) comprehensive guidance for both clinicians and forensic practitioners on how to identify parental alienation in their clients; (2) detailed information for attorneys who want to demonstrate that the concept of parental alienation fulfills Daubert and Frye criteria for testimony in U.S. courts; and (3) precise rebuttal of the abundant misinformation and outright false information that has been published regarding parental alienation.
 
This book was edited by PASG members Demosthenes Lorandos and William Bernet. Several other PASG members contributed to the chapters in Parental Alienation – Science and Law.  PAI will publish a book review, probably in the July issue.
  
More information is available at the website of the publisher, Charles C Thomas, Publishers, in Springfield, Illinois.
 
On the Charles C Thomas website, you can open and read the first 26 pages of the book.
 
Also, the book is available at the website of Amazon.


Dr. Warshak's Book

Divorce Poison: How to Protect Your Family from Bad-mouthing and Brainwashing
In this classic guide to preventing & overcoming parental alienation, Dr. Warshak helps parents shield children from the crossfire of divorce and separation.Your ex-spouse is bad-mouthing you to your children, perhaps even trying to turn them against you. 

If you handle the situation ineffectively, you could lose your children's respect, their affections—even, in extreme cases, lose contact with them.

The conventional advice is to do nothing for fear that any response could result in greater injury to the children.

But with twenty-five years of helping families, Dr. Richard Warshak is convinced that a passive approach just leaves parents feeling helpless. And the damage to children is considerable, particularly when warring parents enlist children as allies in the battle. The problems range from tainted parent-child relationships, in which children are disrespectful or reluctant to show their affection, to a disturbance in which children virtually disown one of their parents and all the relatives on that side of the family.

Divorce Poison offers specific advice to protect children from the results of their parents' animosity. In it, you will learn how to: • respond when your children join forces with your ex 
• react if your children refuse to see you 
• answer rude and hateful behavior 
• insulate children from the harmful effects of bad-mouthing 
• identify and correct your own contributions to parent-child conflicts 
• defend against false accusations of brainwashing 
• choose the best therapist and lawyer 
• reconcile with children after years of estrangement

Where Have All Our Daughter's Gone
$19.95

​
Mitchell Bellison always had an agenda. As a college student at the University of Florida, he didn’t let the fact he lived in a trailer deter him from getting what he wanted. Now, with intelligence and looks, he cunningly charms his way into the life–and arms–of unsuspecting Southern belle Kate Canterfield. Mitchell plays his part to perfection, but it isn’t long after their marriage that Kate begins to see his facade crumble and the abuse begins. Still, due to her upbringing, Kate feels obliged to do her best and fix what’s wrong, no questions asked. With money and power as an attorney, Mitchell eventually decides he no longer needs Kate in his life, and embarks upon a journey of self-satisfaction. Kate thinks it is enough she escaped an abusive marriage, but she can never totally break free of his control now that they share three daughters.
Where Have All Our Daughters Gone is a story of contrasts from love and compassion to narcissistic revenge and resilience, set against a backdrop of the wealth and privilege of Naples, Florida to the quiet charm of the Southern Low Country of South Carolina. Kate’s is a story of compassion, resilience, and survival against the odds.
