EXCERPT

Why is PAS still with us?

Why is statistically uncommon parental alienation elevated to a syndrome and media hot topic, while more common problems such as non-payment of support or failure to exercise access are ignored? Why is PAS the go-to argument when a child does not want to visit a parent?

The answer to these questions is another question: Who benefits if PAS is a live topic? PAS is still with us because it has been useful for some litigants.

In the context of lack of access to legal aid, this “syndrome” can be useful in various ways. From an emotional perspective, it is much more satisfactory to explain access problems as arising from conduct of the other spouse than from one’s own shortcomings. For those who see control of the children as an objective, or as a means to control the other spouse, PAS is a weapon. Those who engage in litigation harassment can increase the other parent’s legal costs by alleging PAS.

This allegation will usually convince a court that a custody and access report is needed. If the report finds PAS, the alleged alienator will have to pay another psychologist to critique the report. At the least, there will be the expense of preparing cross-examination of the psychologist. If the court accepts that there has been PAS, there may still be reversals of custody. The rules relating to costs apply to family law cases. And a costs order can include the bill for preparing the custody and access report.

Family law in Canada is “gender neutral” in its language. This is a result of lobbying in the 1980s by, ironically, both women’s advocates and father’s rights organizations.

Gender neutrality can slide into gender blindness if there is an unwillingness to acknowledge that, as in other aspects of life, men and women are affected differently by family breakdown. Sixteen percent of Canadian women who are married to or in common-law relationships with the father of their children live below the poverty line. Forty-three percent of single mothers and separated or divorced women live in poverty. This statistic alone demonstrates who can afford to litigate or respond to litigation demands for experts to refute PAS allegations.

Crisis in access to justice

Canada is suffering from a crisis in access to justice and legal aid that is recognized by the U.N. Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural rights and the Convention for the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women. The lack of legal aid for family law has a variety of negative effects on low and middle income men and women: inadequate or no support orders having to consent to custody and access arrangements that are not in children’s best interests, unfair property division and the prospect of self-representation. Women are disproportionately affected by cuts to legal aid.

Parent alienation as a “syndrome” illustrates why, now more then ever, it is important to openly discuss gender – meaning the experience of men and women and the power relationships between them - in family law.

It is crucial for child abuse prosecutors to understand the theory of PAS, and know how to best challenge its legitimacy in court. Part 1 of this article addressed the PAS theory and its inherent flaws. We now turn to the courts’ approaches to PAS, and propose arguments and methods to suppress this unreliable evidence." "Conclusion PAS is an unproven theory that can threaten the integrity of the criminal justice system and the safety of abused children. Prosecutors should educate themselves about PAS and be prepared to argue against its admission in court. In cases where PAS testimony is admitted, it is a prosecutor’s responsibility to educate the judge and jury about the shortfalls of this theory. As more criminal courts refuse to admit PAS evidence, more protection will be afforded to victims of sexual abuse in our court system." http://www.ndaa.org/ncpca_update_v16_no7.html  The Parental Alienation Syndrome: Is It Scientific? by Stephanie J.

Crook (Eds.), Expose: The failure of family courts to protect children from abuse in custody disputes . Los Gatos , CA : Our Children Our Children Charitable Foundation.  SEE SECTION: Gardner 's Views on Pedophilia [2] Gardner (1992b, pp. 670-71) considers sexual activities between adults and children to be part of the natural repertoire of human sexual activity and suggests that pedophilia may enhance the survival of the human species by serving "procreative purposes" (1992b, p. 24-5). According to Gardner (1992b, p. 593), "pedophilia has been considered the norm by the vast majority of individuals in the history of the world" and "it is a widespread and accepted practice among literally billions of people." In addition, Gardner (1986, p. 93) believes that children are naturally sexual and may initiate sexual encounters by "seducing" the adult. Moreover, Gardner (1992b, pp. 670-71) maintains that sex abuse is not necessarily traumatic; the determinant as to whether sexual molestation will be traumatic to the child, is the social attitude toward these encounters. Accordingly, Gardner (1992b, pp. 593-4) believes that our society takes an excessively punitive and moralistic attitude toward those who act out their pedophilic impulses. In fact, Gardner (1991, p. 26) suggests that "all of us have some pedophilia within us." It should be noted that Gardner's views on pedophilia are at odds with the scientific research on child sexual abuse which has consistently and conclusively shown the negative long-term effects of sexual abuse on children's lives (e.g., Fergusson, Horwood, & Lynskey, 1996; Johnson, Cohen, Brown, Smailes, & Bernstein, 1999; Silverman, Reinherz, & Giaconia, 1996). http://www.leadershipcouncil.org/1/res/dallam/3.html           Awarding Custody to Abusers and Domestic Violence Homicides Is There a Connection? »h Parentiparentingnewsnetwork.com The research establishing that the custody court system is broken and has a patt...See More Yesterday at 8:36am · Like · http://www.causes.com/causes/659087-safe-child-act-2012  http://www.causes.com/causes/659087-safe-child-act-2012/about  With these provisions the courts can stop sending children to live with dangerous abusers.

Furthermore professionals who seek to use such bogus theories would be barred from participating in domestic violence cases. The recent rejection of the campaign to include PAS in the DSM IV because it has no scientific basis should make it easy for PAS to be rejected including when it is used by other names such as parental alienation or just alienation,"  by Barry Goldstein Last month my article was about legislation needed to stop custody courts from routinely sending children into the custody of dangerous abusers. My meeting with a state legislator led to her request that I prepare a proposal that would be the basis of legislation to reform the broken system. I would like to thank Toby Kleinman for her assistance in drafting this proposal. Immediately below will be my proposal for a Safe Child Act and I will then discuss why I think this would make a difference. You are most welcome to post or otherwise use this proposal and this article in support of efforts to reform the system. In fact I hope many people will take the proposal for a Safe Child Act and ask their legislators to sponsor it.  Safe Child Act  Purpose: Improve the Safety of Children involved in Child Custody Cases  Correcting Existing Mistaken Outcomes  What do we do about the tens of thousands of heartbreaking cases in which custody courts have used their standard flawed practices to separate children from safe protective mothers who usually have been their primary attachment figure and sent them to live with dangerous abusers? Courts follow the doctrine of stare decisis in all cases, not just custody or domestic violence. This mean that once they make a decision, it is binding on both parties and cannot be relitigated. There are many good reasons for this practice as constantly retrying cases because one party is dissatisfied with the results would clog the courts and waste resources. We can be sure abusers would take full advantage if they were permitted to.  We often see cases in which the court considered allegations of domestic violence or child abuse, found against the mother and then refuse to consider new evidence that with the earlier evidence would prove the father is dangerous. The original decision might be because there was not sufficient evidence or the flawed practices prevented the court from using the evidence to understand the actual situation. The Safe Child Act would provide a solution and create the opportunity for many children to be rescued.  The law would say that the findings that custody courts are routinely using bad practices that result in its failure to recognize valid allegations of abuse. Accordingly the passage of the law and the findings and research it is based upon constitute a change of circumstance that would permit victims of the flawed practices to have a new hearing to determine if the custody-visitation arrangement should be changed based upon the improved practices required by the law and the research about children’s safety. Once courts make a mistake and send children to live with an abuser they often refuse to return the child to the safe parent based on continuity. Basically this means that children do better when their lives are not disrupted so there is a strong tendency to leave the child with the custodial parent (of course this does not seem to be an obstacle when they want to remove children from their mothers). Continuity is a valid consideration and reasonable to be included in the factors determining custody. It is not, however a safety issue so that proof of domestic violence, child abuse or primary attachment which are all safety issues would take precedence.  This means that courts could not refuse to provide a new hearing or consider evidence of domestic violence or child abuse despite prior denials of the allegations. In the new hearing the courts would have to use the new and improved practices mandated by the law. Hopefully this would discourage courts from continuing to send children to live with abusers because this would only make more work for the court. Most importantly, the law would give protective parents an opportunity to rescue children placed in danger by mistaken court decisions.  ABOUT SAFE CHILD ACT 2012 safe child act 2012 The heart of the proposal is the requirement that professionals used to provide expertise and advice to the court are knowledgeable about the five subjects required for an understanding of domestic violence. These are: 1. Knowing what behaviors are associated with higher risk of lethality or injury. 2. Domestic violence dynamics 3. The effects of domestic violence on children. 4. Recognizing domestic violence 5. Batterer narratives. With these provisions the courts can stop sending children to live with dangerous abusers. Instead of pressuring mothers to cooperate with their abusers they can be using their power and authority to require him to stop his abuse if he wants to have a relationship with the children.

In fact I hope many people will take the proposal for a Safe Child Act and ask their legislators to sponsor it.  Safe Child Act   Purpose: Improve the Safety of Children involved in Child Custody Cas Conclusion  As I discussed last month in my article about legislative proposals, there are other ideas and provisions that could be added to the reforms and some of the ideas in this proposal could be removed if necessary to gain approval. I believe that as long as safety of children is effectively treated as the first priority, this will create the fundamental reforms necessary to alter the frequency of outcomes that place children in jeopardy. It is critical that safety be defined to include not only physical abuse, but also situations that place children at risk. Also critical is the definition of domestic violence both to help courts recognize the coercive and controlling behaviors abusers use and to avoid the mistakes where victims are accused of domestic violence if they strike out in self-defense or frustration.  The heart of the proposal is the requirement that professionals used to provide expertise and advice to the court are knowledgeable about the five subjects required for an understanding of domestic violence. These are:  1. Knowing what behaviors are associated with higher risk of lethality or injury.  2. Domestic violence dynamics  3. The effects of domestic violence on children.  4. Recognizing domestic violence  5. Batterer narratives.  With these provisions the courts can stop sending children to live with dangerous abusers.
