“If it’s not in the court record, it doesn’t exist.”

Family courts pretend parental alienation isn’t real — but research proves otherwise.

Peer-reviewed studies, expert reviews, and evidence-based programs all confirm what targeted parents know: alienation harms kids.

Here’s how to fight back:

• Print credible research (Harman, Baker, Warshak, Lorandos, Haines, Clawar & Rivlin).

• File it as an exhibit in your motions or affidavits.

• State clearly in writing:

“All parties — including the Court — have been advised this child is being alienated from me, and I am aware of it.”

• Use clear language: If the judge resists “PAS,” call it interference with the parent-child relationship or resist/refuse dynamics.

Why it matters:

Courts and opposing counsel often say “no credible evidence” or “you never raised it.”

When you put the science directly in the record, they can’t deny it anymore.

Parental alienation isn’t “junk science.” It’s documented child abuse — and you have the proof. Get it into evidence.
