Parental Alienation Strategies

Parental Alienation Strategies There are two primary strategies (typically used in conjunction with each other) that alienators employ to punish and erase the other parent. The first strategy involves the manipulation of the legal system (we’ll get to this later), and the second involves the direct psychological manipulation of the child. Psychological research reveals that […]

Family Law Reform: Sometimes People Want You To Think It’s About Others, When It’s Really About Them.

I was reminded of the thought expressed in the title to this post the other day, which provoked me to update some older posts that decomposed and explained Title IV-D bonuses and incentives to states (Federal Title IV-D funds are bonuses and incentives paid to states for maximizing, collecting, enforcing, and administering child support payments). […]

Apparently, Noncustodial Parents Need To Be Encouraged To “Visit” With Their Children.

  Recently, I was updating our breakdown of Title IV-D incentive payments to states, and I came across this little gem in a 2012 budget request from the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families for title IV-D funding. This is on page 278 (source https://www.acf.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/olab/cse.pdf): “Child Support and Fatherhood Initiative […]

Caution: Shared Parenting May Not Be What You Think It Is.

Is shared parenting legislation a win? Sadly, probably not. In truth, it’s mostly political deception intended to manufacture the appearance of change, when in fact, there is nothing that is substantively different from existing law. To test for yourself if this statement is true, ask yourself a few questions about your proposed or existing shared […]

Family Law Reform: The Failure Of A Moral Argument

Consider the following story from one of our members: “My son testified in the state capital when a proposal was made to adopt 50/50 custody. He did not care about money, he pays his support by living home with me. What he wanted was more time with his sons and he petitioned for an extra […]

Memo To Followers: Is The Fox Ruling The Henhouse?

You might have noticed that the common theme of our most recent publicity messages center around “sharing the truth”. And there’s a reason for this:  we’ve been seeing a rather active effort on the part of our opposition to blatantly lie to the Public in an attempt to thwart Family Law reform. In reality, this […]
