“Any attempt at alienating the children from the other parent should be seen as a direct and willful violation of one of the prime duties of parenthood” - J. Michael Bone and Michael R. Walsh, authors of “Parental Alienation Syndrome:
 How to Detect It and What to Do About It”
-http://www.divorcesource.com. ---I am a mom who has survived Parental Alienation, It lasted 10 years. During those years of hopelessness, I started this blog to talk and share my feelings with my daughter. This was the only way for me to be heard, I shared my struggle and feelings. It helped me to heal, slowly. But more than that; it's become a platform for me, as I learn more about this epidemic, to inspire someone who might also be dealing with it. I hope my testimony and experience will help others survive when they feel like giving up. Don't give up, keep fighting and give it to God. It is the only thing that keeps me moving forward each day.

comment on my blog!

I just discovered a comment on my graduation day post. There are others out there going through this with their children as well, I didn't really have an intention when starting this blog, but if it can be of help to anyone or a sounding board for other parents going through the same thing with their children, then it is here for the better of someone, not just me. I offered to pray for her and keep praying for our relationship to one day be stronger than ever Alyssa
I love you

crying out to God

This is my cry, please don't let them take her away from me legally
I give this to you Lord, please intervene. My heart cannot take this, it makes it feel so final. Please give me peace in my heart that she will return, that this is happening for a reason, that this is your works and things will happen in your time.
Please send me some peace, I have such a lump in my throat just thinking about it, it brings up all the feelings that I have tried to work though over the last 2 almost 3 years. Lord, I give this to you, please make things right and in your time, help me to feel ok with this, I ask of you dear Jesus, I am crying out to you.
In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Picture Perfect

Hi Alyssa

"please bring me along, I want to see everything you have to offer me, and I want to show everything I have to offer you now" Nelly Furtado.... Those are some lyrics of a song I am listening to now. It's a song I used to listen to a long time ago when I was married to Daddy. These lyrics I related to because I was in love with him, I loved him and I loved our family. I wanted him to bring me with him on his journey, somewhere along the way we broke down in all areas of our relationship and eventually our marriage. I was so young and I made so many mistakes, I am sorry for, but now that I am here on the other side of that part of my life, I feel like I have learned and will continue to learn something from that era in my life (1995-2007) 12 years, we had it all and we let it slip away. I know you wont really understand relationships until you are in one. I lived, and learned, the hard way. I cannot change the past but I can learn from it. I love and miss you, I am here for you whenever you are ready I hope one day you can forgive me.
