"Parental Alienating Behaviors and Coercive Control: The One and the Same"

The initial event is of no charge to anyone. This is a ministry of Family Access-Fighting for Children's Rights. As this is a one hour presentation, there will be no questions submitted.

The impact of this weaponization on children has been the focus of scientists who study parental alienation, who consequently have referred to coercively controlling behaviors as “parental alienating behaviors” because of the focus on the child rather than the perpetrator of abuse. Despite these two different labels for the same sets of behaviors, there has been considerable resistance among detractors of parental alienation in recognizing parental alienating behaviors, preferring instead to call coercively controlling abuse in these cases as “protective parenting,” particularly when the “protective parent” is a mother. In this presentation, Dr. Harman will review the scientific evidence documenting the weaponization of children across both fields of study, highlight how they are one and the same phenomenon, and explore how a biased gender paradigm about violence and the denial and misrepresentation of science has created an unnecessary and harmful divide in this field of work. Jennifer J. Harman, PhD received her doctorate in social psychology from the University of Connecticut in 2005. She is an Associate Professor of Psychology at Colorado State University and has published over a dozen peer-reviewed articles and scientific studies on the topic of parental alienation and domestic violence. She is a renowned expert on the topic of parental alienation, conducts trainings on the topic for legal and mental health professionals, and has provided expert witness testimony in many family and criminal court cases across the U.S. She currently serves on the Board of Directors for the Parental Alienation Study Group, is the President of the International Counsel on Shared Parenting, and is on the editorial board of the peer-review scientific journal, Personal Relationships. |
MISSION STATEMENT
As a 501 C3 private foundation, our main concern is the children and grandchildren and then the complete family. Sadly the children and grandchildren who are alienated from family are being treated as pawns and property. They are neither. They are human beings.They should not be regarded as such by their parents or any other family member. We contend that it should be illegal to use children as pawns or instruments of spiteful behaviour in an effort to prevent them from interaction with ALL other family members. Our purpose and goal is to ensure the preservation of extended, traditional family relationships. In the process of this hell on earth called alienation, we need all the knowledge, support and resources we can get to help our children and grandchildren and then ourselves. This website, along with our international monthly webinars with the leading experts in the world regarding alienation as presenters will be major tools and assets for all involved. Professionals who deal with alienation in helping families will glean much from this website and our international webinars as well. To contact us, please email familyaccessinnc@aol.com.

HISTORY
In April 2012, Family Access- Fighting for Children's Rights was founded by Elaine Cobb who is also president. Elaine herself is alienated from her granddaughter Dare who she has never seen and is now 10 years old and her adult son Bryan who she has not been a part of his family's lives since December 26, 2010. Her granddaughter Dare is alienated from her whole side of her daddy's family. This is why she determined to try in helping make a difference in this abuse called alienation being caused to the children, grandchildren and family members.
In the beginning, her goal was to help those in the state of North Carolina where the founder and president, Elaine Cobb resides. In just a short time, Elaine realized that alienation was a huge epidemic which was indeed all over our world. She realized at that time she wanted to do all that she could to help those suffering through this hell on earth. This is her ministry. Elaine understands the pain and wants much to help in any way possible to help these children and grandchildren have access to all of their family.
She started the international seminar calls nationwide. In less than a year, she took the calls on an international level. Now Family Access- Fighting for Children's Rights helps in supporting 41 countries in educating as many alienated family members and professionals in regards to alienation through our international webinars.
Elaine also knew one of the biggest ways to defeat alienation is to bring more awareness and education to those who know nothing or very little about alienation. The website familyaccessfightingforchildrensrights.org was designed with that in mind as well as giving information to alienated family members to help them know all they can to get through this and one day hopefully be able to see their alienated loved ones. We also provide much support to these families in giving them these tools to better educate. It is also here to help professionals i.e.., attorneys, mental health professionals, judges, legislators, school officials, researchers, writers, child advocates, etc. There is much to learn and we hope to give all as much as we can to help.
