Don't Alienate The Kids

With special guests:

  • Bill Eddy and
  • Debra Rankin.
Nothing strikes deeper into the human heart than the loss of one’s children. It matters little how the loss occurred, the intense pain is almost unbearable. It is an international  scandal therefore, that our governments through their agencies, are so deeply involved in providing the perfect mechanisms, that allow millions of  child kidnappers to go unpunished.   

The psychological and physical kidnapping of children in custody disputes, is often referred to as Parental Alienation, while it is also described by various other names when used in different settings. There are many who regrettably are still in denial that this phenomenon actually occurs, however for those parents and children who have found themselves a victim, the loss is extremely painful and very real.  

This week we speak with two people, who are very much aware of the damage caused by the failure of our legislators, to understand the horrific ramifications of the soul destroying Family Justice System they have created.  

Our first guest is Bill Eddy, author of a new book ‘Don’t Alienate the Kids! (Raising Resilient Children While Avoiding High Conflict Divorce). This is a fresh examination of the child alienation problem and an analogy of the Parental Alienation Syndrome vs. the assumption of Child Abuse debate.  

Eddy doesn’t just evaluate the Parental Alienation Syndrome vs. Child Abuse Presumption debate, he proposes his own theory of “1000 Little Bricks”, based on recent breakthroughs in brain research about how children learn.   

We end the show interviewing Debra Rankin, founder of  ‘Alienated Parents Australia’, herself an alienated mother, who together with her children has joined the ever swelling ranks as victims of Parental Alienation Syndrome.

Debra has decided it is time to look at new ways to educate the community about the  hidden effects that badly flawed Family Laws can have on unsuspecting separating parents and their children. 

As an artist, she has created a collection of works illustrating the ravages of Parental Alienation Syndrome, and will hold an exhibition at Lismore on the NSW north coast from 3rd to the 14th May. Every interested member of our community who would like to learn more about PAS, will be made very welcome.

Class Action Against Family Violence Laws

With special guests:

  • Ray Escobar and
  • Dr. John Walsh.

The slow simmering unrest amongst dispossessed parents and children is building steadily worldwide. Increasingly governments are permitting the misuse of illegal Domestic Violence laws to separate parents from their children and property, which is wreaking intolerable havoc amongst our communities.

However slowly but surely, the restless victims and their children are starting to challenge the immoral and illegal actions of our dis-interested legislators, who have allowed these draconian laws to be passed with their stamp of approval.

In the Australian State of Tasmania, a group of concerned parents both men and women, have joined together into a fighting force and have set out to overturn these destructive Family Violence laws, claiming damages for the immense damage they have caused their families and communities. There action group is called J.A.I.L.Inc. (Juries Against Illegal laws) and their spokesman Ray Escobar is our first guest this week.

J.A.I.L. Inc has launched a class action against the Tasmanian Government and have hired a legal team headed by Dr John Walsh of Brannagh, who is our second guest on the show this week. The good Doctor is Australia’s most eminent  authority on the Australian Constitution, holds a degree in Criminal Law and has been a Magistrate. On the 4th February 2010 the Federal Court of Australia, Tasmanian Registry, date stamped the writ against the Tasmanian Government.

J.A.I.L. Inc. amongst other things is seeking damages of $200,000,000.00 as well as the complete repeal of the Tasmanian Family Violence Act of 2004. Because these illegal Domestic Violence laws are responsible for the current large scale destruction of so many parent/child relationships worldwide, there is no doubt many are watching globally to see how this action will unfold.

Shameful Political Apathy

With special guests:

  • Greg Andresen and

  • Sue Price.

When dealing with issues relating to the health and well-being of the men and boys of our society, the silence from our legislators is deafening. Apart from paying lip-service to the importance of sound policies to ensure the protection of all of the nations citizens, our legislators are completely indifferent to the plight of the male half of our citizenry.

This is especially noticeable in the area of Family Law, Domestic Violence, Child Support, Men’s Health, Boys Education, and Suicide prevention. Today we speak with Greg Andresen of (Men’s Health Australia) and Sue Price of the (Men’s Right Agency) about these issues and the lack of urgent government attention to the desperate needs of our fathers, husbands, brothers and sons, as they face an ever increasing level of persecution and neglect.
