The purpose of this site has changed over the years. Initially it was to provide a mechanism for recognizing parental alienation and expose the evidence and proof of tragic manipulation. The original intent was to give my kids a place to go where they could see the other side of something that will impact their entire lives. How one of the souls that brought them into this world has tried will all their will to be part of their lives.
Being a father is the only role I’ve ever felt genuinely good at. Ironically, I seldom see my kids today. There was a time when they eagerly anticipated our next adventure. They stayed by my side, just as I preferred. I miss being present; now, I’m never truly present. I rush from task to task, but there was a time when time stood still. That was whenever I did something with my kids. It didn’t matter what—cooking, gardening, biking, “fossil hunting,” or singing “Goodnight Moon” before bed. Time stood still. Truthfully, time kind of stopped for me the last time I saw my youngest. She was 17 then, and I had planned three consecutive weekends together when COVID hit.
This site has a differnt purpose now and I’m glad it’s taken as long as it has to come together. The impact of being forced out of my kids’ lives has had a profound impact on every facit of my life. When I recently went through the 35 pounds of court documents, it literally made me sick. I could prove that my ex lied to therapist, police, judges and attorneys, and still won. I had all the hard proof, but she still won in court. Divorce should never separate a child from a parent unless that parent is dangerous. There is no excuse for child abuse of ANY kind. One purpose of this site is to help identify that pathological alignment that results in an parent manipulating their children away from an emotionally healthy parent, is child abuse.
This site includes factual data, and also personal experiences that hopefully help others understand the sickness and devistation that happens when a child is manipulated away from a loving and emotionally available parent. Recognizing parental alienation and addressing it at the source can prevent the devastating effects on children and alienated parents alike.
