Action Regarding Parental Alienation
Those who have experience or knowledge of Parental Alienation (PA) can do something that might cause this condition to be taken more seriously. The American Psychiatric Association is working on the next edition of the DSM, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. This is the leading psychiatric diagnostic classification system used in many countries including NZ. Glen Sacks’ organisation Fathers & Families is making it easy to send letters to key DSM personnel providing additional evidence that PA needs to be recognized as a mental disorder similar to other “relational disorders” that have already been included in the DSM. If PA is included in the DSM that will put a stop to those who deny PA as a phenomenon and it will make it almost impossible for any Family Court to turn a blind eye to PA if diagnosed. I encourage people to go to the Fathers & Families page, scroll down to find and complete the online form and let them do the rest. The DSM is based on international research and evidence so correspondence from NZ will be as influential as any.
Thank you for this Hans. I will certainly fill out the form based on my first-hand experiences of PA. I note the Family Courts will accept the term “alienation” but are still reluctant to associate the word parental to it.

Dear Hans, are you suggesting that the syndrome should be recorded on the medical file of the adult doing it, or the adult that is being denied the relationship, or the child on the receiving end?
Also, this concept is somewhat in its infancy, as it may just be viewed as a cluster of one or several personality disorders, that are already listed in DSM (or ICD World Health Organisation classification)?
I favour that approach, as I believe that it leads more naturally (ie with least need for any legal involvement) to the best methods of handling this profitable scourge.
The DSM classification process focusses on a black and white problem/no problem approach. (Unfortunately, so too does the judges’ approach to handling parent/child alienation.) In the real world that children develop, problems vary on a continuous scale and also ebb and flow with the phases of the moons. Treatment should also be provided only to the extent that it is needed to protect the children and protect the perpetrator from creating further legal problems around themself.
Commonsense says that this is a simple problem and only becomes difficult to manage when the diagnosers and treatment providers work under denial of conflicts of interest, in their relentless drive for personal wealth, where sufficient or even ample is never enough. (Where is the biggest personality disorder problem?)
Developing a constructive and safe treatment process will require an honest analysis of the financial conflicts of interest, of all of the parties who want to feed at this public trough…….. When this is done, then designing appropriate treatment will not be difficult and the treatment will be surprisingly low cost.
Cheers,
MurrayBacon.

Parental alienation tactics for effect are normally used by vexatious female custodial mothers who are guided by gender bias Family Court Orders. Many ex parte protection orders are build on false allegations of child sexual abuse and domestic violence. The children do not have a say in matters and the falsely accused dad is overwhelmed by the many barriers put in place by twisted lying Family Court judges, lawyers, psychologists and counselors. Sometimes the heartbreak is too much, hence the dramatic increase in the numbers of forced male clients of the Family Court who take the suicide is painless option. Years later the horrific damage by all the unlawful gender discrimination is obvio everybody. A man is devastated that lies can stop him loving his children for so long. The pain of loss is hurtful.This dad did not help create children so a Court system could use them in a sordid world of purpose driven parental alienation.Money is the root of all evil. In my case the dirty low scum in the Family Court stretched the lie out for eight years. 52 lawyers, 20 judges, dozen or so twisted psychologists. All liars sucking on the gravy train Family Court. They know they stuffed up bigtime, but they can never feel the sadness of losing someone we love.
The pain I feel is legitimate. Fuck the Family Court!

Dear Dads4, you are too kind in your approach to judging the judges.
Where people happily take profit from families and fail to look at the quality of their “services”, then they slide down the billing scale below rogues and thieves, to be just manslaughterers, as you noted.
People claim their is no honour between thieves, but really how much is their among legal-workers, jumped up a bench or down a bench?
Substance or just marketing show?
When a legal-workers’-aid lawyer litigates a worthless case, the “judge” and any other legal-workers involved are also beneficiaries of the plundering “litigation”.
Dame Margaret poked borax, but she didn’t follow the trail of unethical invoices and salaries right back to the root source of the evil – the failure by “judges” to enforce standards of practice.
The LSA tried to enforce standards, perhaps somewhat weekly, but they were undermined by the LARP (Legal Aid review Panel) and by the “judges” who profit from the low standards that they set.
You don’t have to be the crook, to share in the benefits.
Whiles these “judges” make arrogant comments about government social welfare beneficiaries, I can only have an image in my mind, of them taking far more out of our society than the ostensible beneficiaries. It would be too kind to call them government beneficiaries.
Lets call a spade a spade and a thief a thief.
Cheers, MurrayBacon.

And how many times have the media reported false allegation of False Rape complaints or false inappropriate sexual misconduct complaints on Children,against Men/ Fathers…..
Lets put this way shall we, if any Man or Father would dare lay a false sexual complaint against his Lady/Wife and it was proven in court he committed perjury…..Would he be charged for it and to be held accountable for his actions…???….Damn straight He would be…
My ex brother in law as been living in Australia for some time and is living a normal Life,like I said in my previous post he is now married to a wonderful Australia Lady and she is a highly smart and a very intelligent Lady who works as an Legal Secretary in Law firm specializing in Family Law in Australia. ….And to quote her exact words to me, when I saw her two years ago for brunch ….’John,New Zealand is a very dangerous Country for a Man or a Father to even think of living in…Get out…!!!!’

Dear John, ’tis purely bloodsport and entertainment, with underlying asset stripping.
If NZ men really were much concerned, they would endeavour to work together, to protect their more vulnerable younger mates, from being mangled through this machine. Most of them are happily worried and won’t worry about coming home to an empty house.
Its no use complaining that the profit-media investigate our troubles so little, as they serve foreign owners. The owners quite properly pitch to the purchasing public what they are happy to pay for. The public just want escape from their money and entertainment, not boring warnings – like look before you leap.
This is our own responsibility, as we sold our newspapers to these distant well castled owners, who offered more than what we thought they were worth.
All rise for the queen’s judge! The apostrophe in queen’s means she pays them (with our assets) and they serve her, rather than us. (Even if it was our money.) Recent TV history entertainment like Henry 8th showed the advantages of paying your own judges. Things have changed for the better, where individuals have fought for it, just not by a lot.
When you hear “all rise…”, remember the severed heads and the kind words they said before the final separation, because they knew their live family could just as easily follow…
If NZ men really were much concerned, they would endeavour to work together, to protect their more vulnerable younger mates and their own children, from being mangled through this mindless machine.
When men fight separated, they doom themselves to obscurity and entertainment. Money isn’t the lack, it is will to work together and wisdom to listen before acting.
There are procedures set out in legislation for the prosecution of false complainants. These laws will never be enforced by those “hollow men” that profit from abuse of caught, so it is left for you and I to consider the prosecution. Very few try. Such actions are usually easily derailed in caught, even where properly brought.
Most men don’t want their ex-wife prosecuted, do it to someone else’s wife, so the troubles run on. To expect the victim to prosecute the perpetrator, is expecting them to act against their own personal conflicted interest. The “judges” and other legal-workers well know this.
Enjoy the suffering, one day it will be close to your own home, very close.
Don’t forget that these women are running up legal-worker’s aid debts, that they are just as abused, it’s just that they haven’t the wit to work out what they are doing to themselves. They are paying a large price too, in their future relationships, who wants a perpetrator with a history like that, especially as the legs get older?
Anyway, Lynley Hood wrote A City Possessed and Felicity Goodyear-Smith wrote First Do No Harm, about the NZ Sexual Abuse Industry. I believe it is too narrow to view it as a sex war. These women have done much more to protect NZ men, than the men who write on MENZ!
In my opinion it is best seen as trolls taking other people’s money, without bothering to work for it or account for it properly. As their greed steadily increases, they become more and more gross, until citizens will be forced to act from shear necessity.
I guess ethics are relative to work ethic and integrity. All of these fade, when out of strong sunlight.
Cheers, MurrayBacon.

Comment by John Dutchie — Sat 9th January 2010 @ 2:30 pm
Hi Murray,
Interesting thoughts. I certainly reject what I think you’re implying, that a “relentless drive for personal wealth” by “diagnosers and treatment providers” is likely to result in unnecessarily prolonged treatment of sufferers of a disorder who are thereby exploited. This just doesn’t fit with my experience of psychological and psychiatric services in NZ. Certainly, inaccurate or unwise treatment approaches occur in mental health services whose disciplines are still in relative infancy and that perhaps give too much priority to medical models. Your concerns may be more valid in the FC context where repeated re-assessments and updates may occur in the absence of intervention likely to make much difference. Even then, a lack of effective intervention or change will often be due to action or inaction on the part of the warring parents fuelled by a legal system that has not been able to counter its inherently adversarial model. The FC psychologists etc are not usually given a treatment role, and there are serious ethical and outcome problems with forcing people to submit to treatment they don’t consent to. However, PA is one problem that the FC is likely to be capable of addressing usefully, simply through ordering contact between the child and the alienated parent.
The questions and concerns you raise about the nature and desirability of a DSM “mental disorder” label for Parental Alienation (PA) are astute. Having PA recognised formally as a disorder may not be entirely positive for those whose minds have been damaged by PA. For example, such a classification to some extent forces PA into a medical model, and the prospect of “treatment” with drugs or electroconvulsion is worrying. But I think the benefits would outweigh the problems. The broader social and legal impact may be to reduce the incidence and bring about earlier recognition and interruption of the alienating process.
The person diagnosed with PA would be the child. Both parents may have causal or consequential problems but they would not be PA; more likely, the alienating parent might suffer from a personality or anxiety disorder and the alienated parent might suffer from depression and/or substance abuse problems. I wouldn’t see PA as a personality disorder at all; more like a variation of an adjustment or anxiety disorder (such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, where irrational fears interfere with realistic appraisal of and coping with aspects of the world).
As far as I am aware little research has been done on treatment of PA. The assumed approach has been ensuring or increasing contact between the child and the alienated parent, protecting the child from the alienating parent’s behaviour, along with providing counselling for the child, parents and/or the various dyads. Even when PA itself is repaired, i.e. the relationship between the child and alienated parent has improved, there may be enduring secondary problems in the child such as eating disorders, self-injury or self-esteem problems that will deserve separate attention. I have never met a mental health professional who would not try to treat all such problems as quickly and effectively as his/her skills allow (and there’s the rub).
Comment by Hans Laven — Sun 10th January 2010 @ 12:35 pm
Dear Hans, I apologise for giving some offense. If you think my comment through, you will notice that “diagnosers and treatment providers” includes psychologists and unfortunately also a motley band of untrained but arrogantly “knowledgeable” legal workers, who treat under cover of “darkness”. It might be that my borax was aimed to them.
I believe that many members of the public are painfully aware of the attitude toward unjust enrichment (“relentless drive for personal wealth”) and take take take until there is nothing takeable left, of these “diagnosers and treatment providers”. This is despite their total lack of recognised qualifications in assessing and providing successful treatment.
Your comparison of the “medical model” to the “legal model” is very informative and productive, through all of the activities of the familycaught.
The medical model respects safety issues in the real world, whereas the “legal model” is more related to discussing safety, in the absence of factual information about the hazards and the degree of hazard resulting from different treatments available.
In particular, the medical model uses real world evidence to improve the quality of treatment offered, where the “legal model” only uses untested opinions and evidence relating to untaken, not-yet-taken and takeable other peoples’ wealth.
You comment on the familycaught adversarial model. The Family Proceedings Act and Family Caught Rules do provide the possibility of the inquisitorial mode of operation. The familycaught does operate in this way on occasion.
However, this mode puts less pressure on customers to pay more for legal-workers, so they tend to revert to the far more profitable or extortionate adversarial mode. This is a conflict of interest and they ruthlessly exploit the possibilities that it offers, while takeable wealth remains available. Example – house equity.
I share your caution about the use of drugs and electroconvulsive treatment therapy (ECT). I am an electrical engineer and anything electrical is really good. The more electricity the better, its just so convenient and easy!
Supporting the medical model doesn’t necessarily imply ECT, as the treatment offered should be evidence based. I am sure that the treatments that you have proposed are well supported by real world evidence, far more so than drugs or ECT.
Certainly there are severe ethical problems with researching PAS treatments. However, many ethical problems in research can be sidestepped to some extent, by making use of situations created by others, which may then allow good quality research to be completed (without breaching ethical guidelines). Dr. Amy Baker has published a collection of experiences of adults, who had been abducted as children, by one of their parents and the long term consequences that flowed on from that. This is a good example of making use of situations created by others, for which the researcher does not bear ethical responsibility.
The treatments that you suggest seem very appropriate and conservative and fit in with existing guidelines (to the limit of my knowledge). My concerns about treatment relate to treatment provided by untrained workers, whose values are “relentless drive for easy personal wealth”.
The two main opportunities for PAS lie in breached access and child abduction. Both of these are relatively straightforward to provide a much higher degree of protection for the children.
Breached access is presently milked by the familycaught, by insisting on issuing warrants to enforce only when the access is actually breached, almost always while the familycaught is closed! This is to extort non-custodial parents (I know this term is now obsoleted by CoCAct, but it still seems strangely relevant and useful) to employ a workless-legal-worker.
Most important is to stop child abduction in the first place, as far as possible. Presently, international child abduction generates $10 to $20 million income for legal-workers per year. This creates quite a sharp conflict of interest. Some judges will protect children from abduction, even though they know that they are indirectly losing income by doing this. This is a big ask. Unfortunately a large minority prefer to offer protection only after the abduction has been completed, preserving for themselves the income stream that results.
Ambulance at the bottom of the cliff style!
If NZ parents want to protect their children, then we must stand up and defend our children from these “legal?” bodysnatchers. I do recommend that this is worth doing. I know that it is perhaps easier to just have more children and not worry….
Despite the lack of good quality research into PAS treatments, the best solution path lies in positively protecting children from PAS in the first place. The time delays that the familycaught mercilessly uses to extort from parents and also to pressure the Government to unnecessarily provide more funding for legal-workers and caughts, is the single factor which dramatically increases the PAS hazard to children.
Thank you for your challenges and feedback, Cheers MurayBacon.

Dear John,
The sinister Family Court is the only Court where there is no requirement in law that the female partner has to prove that her allegations are true. This is straight from the feminist hate handbag of venom.I am helping to collect signatures for a petition for an enquiry into male suicide following a relationship breakdown. I will dress up as Batman and chain myself to the Supreme Courthouse if need be. Enough is enough. Feminist ideology has caused far too much havoc for men. Bring back gender balance judge dread!

Like I said in my previous post, the Judge saw through the ‘Charade’ and threw the charges out in two seconds flat….

My children were also subjected to the systematic distruction of all ties with my family, their freinds, schools and environment. Unfortunately for me I recieved legal aid and the substandard service that we all know is provided by lawyers who take on legal aid cases. But wait. I have recent letter from he Minister of courts in which she states and I quote:” I am not persuaded there is sufficient evidence to substantiate allegations of gender bias in the Family Court and the government currently has no plans to review the way the Family Court operates”.This letter is dated 23 Nov 2009. So at present I would say us fathers are up shit creek. I had tried to get advise from Menz.Org about posting this letter in full that I recieved from the Minister of Courts but dispite my phone calls and e-mails to JP I have not had a reply .

Comment by noconfidence — Mon 11th January 2010 @ 6:51 pm
Dear John, the flood of complaints would also include a very large number of women. Maybe you travel in circles, where you hear men’s complaints more?
This might surprise you, but remember CYFs use the familycaught, or familycaught use CYFs? as an on-tap source of “work”. It is a very convenient relationship financially. Sometimes it does protect children too. Often, it damages children who don’t need intervention. This is the classic of taking the right number of children, but not the actual right children that need protecting. CYFs have a lot of poorly and untrained staff, same situation as familycaught. (CYFs staff aren’t as overpaid as familycaught staff though.)
Also, more women are ripped off through poor quality “legal-workers’-aid work” than men. Initially they may think it was a joke, as the Government paid for it.
If they later gain work or inherit, then they do end up paying for this “legal work”, that by then they have realised was possibly unwarranted, wasteful, incompetent, against their interests etc, each case is a bit different.
Due to this time delay until realisation, women are often much less aware that they have been ripped off. The realisation is usually over a long period of time, keeping down the intensity of feeling that results.
Some people don’t see any other option, than having lawyers who perceive their relationships with the public as being short term and to milked-to-the-max, while the opportunity is open.
There are other options, that a large number of people are using. It is not talked about as loudly, as it is just business as usual.
People who employ lawyers efficiently, establish a relationship with their lawyer, which gives the incentive to the lawyer to act honestly and straightforwardly, to maintain a long term relationship. They check around very carefully before they employ a lawyer. They insist on monthly billing and pay the bill quickly on receipt. (This does require having sufficient cash on hand.) If the lawyer steps out of line, the work is quickly transferred to a different lawyer, who will work honestly and competently.
You will notice that many lawyers “suggest”, don’t worry about the bills now, I will just take it out of the house sale later. This removes from the customer all possibility of controlling the rate at which they are being billed. You can see the diamond flashing in the legal-worker’s teeth, as they say it. The customer is lulled into a false sense of security, as the Law Society will protect them from overbilling – but it is just the Legal-Workers’-Union!!! Conflict of interest again! Conflict of interest always shows up, where their are now unsolveable problems for customers. Best to remove the conflict of interest and not even get into the problem in the first place. This is why it is a very important issue, when “judges” are not honest about their involvement in conflicts of interest.
Rather than waste time, effort and money on complaining to the Legal-Workers-Union (Law Society), it is better to put the effort into keeping the lawyers scope to go off the tracks, as small as possible. If the work is heavy, these successful customers may insist on weekly billing, to keep a tight reign on charges. If something goes a little wrong, they just pay the last wrongful bill and laugh in the defunct lawyers face. The ongoing work then goes to a different lawyer.
More trustworthy lawyers will suggest frequent regular billing.
Learn from the people who do it right, rather than from the less successful people. Lawyers were not always lazy and greedy. I can remember the time when most lawyers were honest, in my lifetime. I am sure that within my lifetime, we will see the majority of lawyers are honest again. (Within about 15 years, most legal work will be done by your own PC or cloud, using a programme costing under $200. This includes judicial work, in the same way. There will be more art in the screensaver, than the legal work.)
Cheers, MurrayBacon.

No progress has been made whatsoever ( please see my last reply) and the government does not give a frogs fat arse about mens lack of rights. Nothing has worked too date AT ALL!!!! I can remember going to Northcote meetings once a week during the initial stages of may painful separation proceedings ( some seven years ago and seeing my fellow men in tears at these group meetings and discussing the same old same old about changing the sytem. We need too act, to be proactive and do whatever it takes ( within the law) to direct public attention to our plight.

As one of the contributing authors to the proposal currently before the DSM Review Board, I just want to thank the author for the post and encourage all of you to write letters telling the board members how parental alienation has affected your lives.
If anyone would like more information on this topic before writing the letter, there is excellent information and resources at http://www.afamilysheartbreak.com.
Thanks to everyone for your support.
Sincerely,
jeff opperman
