Parental Alienation Conference, Terrific New DVD, Joint Custody
Thursday, September 9, 2010 at 1:19PM Conference: An international conference on Parental Alienation will be held in New York City on October 2-3, 2010. Amy Baker, J. Michael Bone, Richard Sauber and other experts on the recognition, evaluation, and treatment of parental alienation will speak. See conference program at www.cspas.ca Goldberg sponsored a successful, well-publicized conference in Toronto, Canada in 2009. This will be his second conference on this important topic affecting children and families.
Parental alienation occurs when a parent bad-mouths or alienates the child from the other parent, and gets the child to join in the attack. Experts learn to recognize the difference between poor parenting skills and parental alienation, as reasons why the child may not want to spend time with a parent. Parental alienation occurs when a child will often forget good times he or she had with the alienated parent, will often also accuse other relatives of abuse, will be “eager” to make the attack (truly abused children are often reluctant to make accusations), and will sound jut like the alienating parent in how the child describes the alienation.
Parental alienation can be committed by either the father or the mother; it is a gender-neutral issue. Parental alienation is an impediment to joint custody, and to any other cooperative arrangement in the raising of children whose parents are separated, divorced, or never-married.

DVD: Dr. Richard Warshak has done it again! The author of "Divorce Poison: How to Protect Your Family From Bad-Mouthing and Brainwashing", now in its 24th printing, has produced a terrific DVD entitled "Welcome Back, Pluto, Understanding, Preventing, and Overcoming Parental Alienation." The video, which has been watched by various parents and children together, has already produced positive results among some of those children. I have watched the video, and Dr. Richard Sauber (a forensic psychologist) and I (an attorney) have joined together to write a positive review of the DVD which will appear in the American Journal of Family Therapy (JFT), which Dr. Sauber edits.
Look up "Welcome Back, Pluto," named for the celestial body that was “removed” from planet status by scientists in 2006. What Warshak means is that even though an attempt may be made to remove a parent from the child’s life, there is a “way back” for that parent. Copies are $28.99 including shipping. On the internet, look up “Warshak” or “Welcome Back, Pluto.”

After a hiatus, I have been welcomed back onto the Children’s Rights Council’s Board of Trustees. I have offered to help CRC with fundraising.

The focus of family therapy is on the interactions between members rather than on individual members themselves. Regardless of the origin of the problem, and regardless of whether the clients consider it an individual or family issue, involving the entire family is often beneficial.
