Alec Baldwin on Parental Alienation Syndrome

[phiberoptick]

I'm a recent father and have been denied even seeing my twins, they are only 3 months old. At first I thought I was going to never see my kids but I'm slowly learning that just because I'm a man that DOES NOT mean I have no rights. Despite what the mother tries to intimidate me with.

[kewldude1958]

I am a victim - 

[addvoc8]

Most attorneys & women's supporters advise moms to make False Abuse Allegations as normal, primary means to win custody & divorce, winner takes all. 3/4 of divorced DADS in my area experience false allegations PLUS parental alienation.

Most parental alienation accompanies HER false allegations resulting in mothers having sole custody with most dads alienated from their kids.

Most GAL's & other court hangers-on support the rot lest they lose their seat at this banquet on children's flesh.

[whotookaegir]

Poor Alec Baldwin, this combined with that soundclip where he yells at his daughter on the phone leads me to believe he doesn't have a very good relationship with his daughter or his ex-wife.

[wearyworld]

@whotookaegir That is absolutely soo true and you are so wise and you have such subtle capacity to intrepret human nature and read between the lines. Your instincts are so honed. I wish I had the capacity you have to see and analyse things. I am sure you must be a professor of philosophy and you must be on the Dean's list not to mention you graduated magna cum laude. I have so much admiration for you. Sincerely, Thumblelina.

[SherryPalmer1]

If you believe in equal parenting time and want the children to be taken out of the middle. Sign this petition so we can let all lawmakers know that we will no longer be anonymous or silent and are not alone. The petition is linked to my youtube channel at sherrypalmer1 petition to take children out of the middle video. As a collective voice they won't be able to ignore us anymore. We have a representative government let's get them to represent us!

[BelleyGirl1]

and i am sick of hearing how only women do this to a father... this is NOT just something women do... men do this ALL the time and most times it goes unnoticed... regardless to that fact... remember and embrace this... your children will be happier, healthier and much more ready for the world if they have an abundance of folks who adore and love them... so if someone is willing to offer that love to your child, let them!!

[caracre]

@BelleyGirl1

Exactly! We share the same interest.. The children! A thought: When did competition and a win-lose model become acceptable in raising children? In history, since the beginning, women shared the raising of the children with the community, other mothers and their entire family. Why did they have this shared concept of responsibility? Because being a parent was one area that men did NOT want (to dominate). Now, all of a sudden men are interested.. new phenomena; Hence, conquer.

[BelleyGirl1]

as a woman going thru a divorce with a real a hole of a husband... i can say this... all men and women who keep their children away from the ex, no matter what you think of them or how your relationship was/is, you all should be ashamed of yourselves...your child is not to blame...i beg you women and men, let your children spend that much needed time with the other parent, your children deserve this &deserve as many ppl in their lives that will LOVE them...they and you will be blessed for it!

[schroeder8911]

Once a man realizes he cannot possibly reason with his ex, he has a slim chance. At that point, fire the lawyer and learn how to work the system yourself. It took a few years, but I got SOLE custody of my son. Hang in there, gentlemen.

[caracre]

@schroeder8911

You do not have to make this a man against women--win-lose scenario... it's not about poor you (man or woman)... THAT is not the issue. When we stand up for our label or place in society over the issue that needs the focus, we are showing exactly our capacity for what we can give to that issue (being the children). Bullying/aggression is one tactic that has been a common form of behavior, prob more with men. Victimization probably more with women. These mentalities damage.

[schroeder8911]

@caracre Until gay marriage is legal, that is EXACTLY what it is: Men vs Women in a system which is biased toward women.

[caracre]

@schroeder8911

What is the relation between the legitimacy of gay marriage and emphasis on gender bias in society, specifically in regards to 'parental alienation'?

[johnjacob771]

I 'm the worst person on earth according to my children. I wounder how the children feel about themselves. I mean to have people they don't know talking bad about your other half. Do these children even know that they are being abused by the people in their lives?

[winterscroll777]

I pulled myself from poverty to become a prominent lawyer, wife left taking three children and the sort of abuse I was subjected too is unspeakable. My children were very young and now 19, 18 and 17, I won't go into the details but a number of years ago I lost all passion for life and quit going to court, I stayed in bed. Now I'm on disability and have never recovered as the same behavior continues. Now two of my three children will not talk to me, the pain cuts through the fabric of my being

[1SobriQuette]

Alec Baldwin's PAS nightmare may have aged him 20 years as he says — but he made a major contribution in the process. Alec shed light on the rotten, murky corner of parent alienators and the wreckage they leave in their hateful campaign. I know, I am an adult survivor of PAS and my step-adoptive mother pulled this on 6 kids: 3 of her own (2 dads/1 estranged adult-kid) and 3 step-adopteds (1 dead + 1, myself, completely estranged) over years. It's real. I lost my late dad and late brother.

[mavrickscar]

We know the lawyers arn't giving up there luxury's for a child. Resolving custody conflicts means an end to the money. Perpetuating conflict means more money in there pocket. If you think as I did, that people arn't like that. Look at history, history repeats itself. As we each escape the court as our kids grow up. We drop the fight. Any power the movement had is lost as parents exit the system. Yet the lawyers numbers grow. The bad lawyers say: right, wrong or indifferent, I'm a litigator.

[rick16407]

you have the indirect parental alienation too... your on the phone talking to your daughter and not 4 or 5 minutes later the ex takes the phone away from her and starts giving you the lecture "i need more, i need more" and goes on for 15 minutes within earshot of our kids standing next to them. the kids begin to think, " its apparent daddy is not paying enough and he doesnt care". that goes on for long time and eventually, they dont want to talk to daddy on the phone or anything.

[rick16407]

"the lecture" of i need more shouldnt be said in front of little children to avoid the parental alienation issue. on top of that , the non custodial parent gets tired of his or her phone visits with thier kids getting interrupted by ex wives or husbands and the non custodial parent all but gives up because they think whats the use, all ill get is "the lecture" from the ex. a vicious cycle with kids caught in the middle unfortunately.

[DiaryofaDivorcedDad]

Parental Alienation happens. Everyone involved in field of Divorce and Separation knows it happens. But few (lawyers, counsellors etc) seem to want to do anything about it. And Fathers lose their children and children lose their fathers.

[mpesik]

Thankyou Mr. Baldwin. You will be listened to.

I haven't seen my Daughter for 3 years. She despises her younger brother as well. 3 years ongoing she is repulsed by him.and myself Why! Because WE have a beautiful relationship and his sister wishes to destroy that with absolute insults about me and making his life miserable-.How doe's pas destoy the heart and the mind as well? We were so remarkable together. This hate is spewed onto her brother. and they live with mother.

[unclefixer]

Parental alienation is only possible because the corrupt courts give "ownership and control " of children to the "irresponsible parent" who wrecked the marriage or relationship. Men, learn the law, especially the law of voids, take away, the custody, ownership, take away the money and you will put a stop to this shit! Parental alienation will not happen any more, because the source of it will be gone. No one parent will own the kids anymore . Parental alienation will no longer be possible.

[elbarama]

Sometimes it is the mom, like me, my ex slowly & successfully bribed & pulled my kids away, lets put it like this $250,000.00 a year vs. $15,000.00 - who do you think is going to be able to bribe the kids? When this parent wants to manipulate the kids, how hard is it exactly?

PAS affects moms too, in fact, I will say that always making it a dad issue vs. parental issue is wrong. Some people think that PAS only exists for dads and it is not recognized when dad's do it to the moms.

[kchunntao]

Heck yeah he is right on the button. In the 4th Circuit court in Knox county Tennessee it is rampant. I havent seen my daughter Ariel Chunn since she was 7 and now she will be 18 this year. Stop this travesty and stop the Lawyers and Judges that contribute to it.

[dalejeffriesjr]

The Parent Alination was so bad in my son's case that Medical became involved.

Doctor appointments date of Sarg. Jeffries visits and extended to surgeries, including she wanted feeding tube inserted into child. All of these conside with dates of Holidays and Dale's visitations. Munchaning Syndrome by Proxie. The Judges have never heard these problems because Lawyers do not want to put woman in jail. She is also married to another Lawyer in Knoxville, TN.

[FinCups]

Well put.

[cpn7112]

My sympathy to Alec Baldwin; you acted irresponsibly and, yes, like an Ahole for one moment and the whole world jumped on it. Those that are not there can never truly understand the hurt, anger and frustration that PA causes the alienated parent. I'm so sorry you lashed out at your daughter; that was wrong; but I DO understand. And I am so sorry for you and your family that the whole GD world had to witness your brief moment of weakness. Keep fighting for your child!!

[cpn7112]

I applaude Alec for speaking out on PA; I am a grandmother that devoted 12+ years as the primary caregiver to my grandchild only to have the biological father step in one day and through his lies and false accusations gained custody and then proceed to alienated our entire family. Every effort to maintain contact with this child has been squashed by the family court system. When will the lawmakers of this great country recognize the needed change regarding emotional abuse of our children?

[SpringChatty]

I pity the good men that are good dads when ignorant women steal the right of the child to be with him by lies! She tears her own child down for no reason but to feel good destroying the parent she no longer loves. Stupid parents use children as tools. Only the stupid selfish ones do !

[charlesoctavius]

Yep. I had a good relationship with my ex- and his family until he fell on financial difficulties and I inherited property, boy, did his mother and his sister change towards me then. We had a "grown-up" relationship, until then

Before people enter into marriage there should be an established legal assumption of "shared care" from the VERY beginning. I have many male friends who are also being treated really badly like this in the 21st Century?

Its like 12thc "Trial by Ordeal!"

[tragicfame]

Now says Alec Baldwin is ranting bogus rhetoric... Alec, if you read this, I too go through Parental Alienation. From simple things like analness regarding which clothes are mom's to ugly things like, "mommy hates daddy" to darn right nasty like, "If we tell you, you'll take mommies cat's away."

So speak that failed gospel. Shine that light. And help bring about much needed change to protect our children from the people who perpetrate such anger and hatred.

[MyTwistedSister]

THIS absolutely exists. I have witnessed it with my own eyes in two instances. It is done by people who are very angry and wish to use their child as a weapon against a spouse who is gone. It is sick and sad and it is child abuse. Anyone who says it doesn't exist is not keeping an open mind.

[EFC100t]

well i have to be on Baldwins side on this one but I do'nt like, this guy rails for the left in everyother way but now the SAME SHIT he has always supported, coming back to bite him in the ass, it could not happen to a better guy ;) the lonly thing worse then a libral is a white male previlged libral

[Red0660]

The Men's and Father's Rights Movement is growing. Join us, speak out! See my channel link up with others and fight for your children and your rights.

[Chammy92243]

@Red0660 I am one. My ex is still using brainwashing and I am still fighting for my 14 year old. It's been 5 years in the process though. Now I am trying to keep my 14 year old off drugs and into something more positive, it's a long road ahead

[prosedad1]

@Red0660: "Speaking out" doesn't do jack...folks have been speaking out for years and nothing has changed. ONLY CHANGE will happen when (1) judges are voted out specifically for their family law decisions, and folks protest them in their own residential neighborhoods saying that they abuse children with their decisions; and/or (2) there's a nationwide civil rights like movement -- but #2 will never happend cuz dads are too lazy or want OUT as soon as their case is over.

[MyDikkie]

This is much wider spread than anyone wants to believe. The victims of PAS are normally the children and the father. The perpetrator is the mother. She might think she is doing something good. It is just plain revenge against the father not realizing that in the process she hurts the children

[Worldlook]

Oh good grief .Somebody get this guy (Baldwin) a job,and then a life.

[JohnCG27]

I thought he left the united states! He's a piece of shit anyway. Blame it on your Ex Alex!! Did everybody not here the message he left on her answering machine?..He called his daugther a Pig. Leave the Country like you said you would Alex!! We will not miss you buddy!!

[PASCRAA]

thank you for posting this video, anything that tries to educate people about this child abuse is welcome

please visit our website. an realigning childen, its a work in progress. and is linked to my website on articles to download

[PASCRAA]

thank you for this video

[sailshane]

Why is this fool lecturing us? PAS is putting abused children into homes that are not safe. This guy himself is abusive. Did you hear the way he talked to his child. It seems to me he should have directed that conversation to the mother. You people are a bunch of cows for even watching this fool! mooooo

[ilovetrim]

I would be careful where you say this you get around someone that has lost the thing that meant the most to them and you could be in trouble. you obviously don't understand so please just keep your ignorant mouth shut

[sailshane]

moooooooo

[Indrajith4evr]

Actually he is a right choice, because he actually went through it. He is human.

[BeatstreetLarry]

+1 Thanks for saying that.

[PASCRAA]

sailshine! you may need to learn more about PAS. Pas children reject loving caring parents. Abuse is another matter altogether, this is alienating a child from a loving parent another form of abuse

[sailshane]

Mooo.....mooo If you can read? Do more research on PAS and you will find I am right! It is junk science. Don't just make a comment from the viewpoint of one side without educating yourself first.

[PASCRAA]

You contradict yourself. If you had suffered through PAS you would know how real it is and you would understand how a child rejects a loving caring parent. So before you Moooo try thinking a little first about the effects on children

[amdifalco]

Did Alec think about the effect it would have when he was abusive to his child?

[PASCRAA]

At that time he would have been so frustrated. Again what have you read? have you experienced this type of aienation? do you understand te process it works through?...I guess you are being judgemental without knowing how it REALLY works. read and learn then see what you think

[designersmiles]

PAS hurts. Many don't know what it is. The child is placed into a position to choose sides and becomes a "team member" with the alienator. Children should be discouraged to HATE. Alienators conveniently turn a blind eye, because they want the child to hate the other parent...

[avonali]

You're plainly an idiot. Rather than discuss the issue you revert back to childish, asinine (or perhaps that should be bovine) mooing. I have not seen my son for nearly 6 years because of PAS. It does exist. Stick to your baseball you chump!

[sailshane]

After reading your comment it's clear your child is better off without you. You tend to fly off the handle don't you! What is it that you did to your child making him or her not want to be near you? Abusers use PAS to cover up abuse!

[avonali]

Yeah right Sailshine. Whatever. You know nothing about me, absolutely nothing about my life, nor my children, 2 of whom have chosen to live with me. Again, I notice YOUR habitual response to any challenge is to resort to personal abuse and mooing. I'd say you have a pretty interesting domestic life my friend. Is this how you respond when confronted with a challenge. Good luck.

[avonali]

@sailshane Judging from the way you respond to people when challenged I'd say you were a prettty volatile parent. Probably a bully, full of unresolved anger. . .I'd say you were were the victim of oppressive parenting yourself

[avonali]

Why don't you cite your sources Sailshine? C'mon, tell us the books and articles you have read! 20 years ago many people disbelieved children who reported clerical sexual abuse and many in the establishment refused to acknowledge there was anything wrong. PAS is a relatively new phenomenon. It coincides with the explosion of custody case from the 1980s. So c'mon, cite your sources please.

[dimansdad]

pathetic to say that PAS is false because some people use it for their advantage. does that mean because many women use child support to buy cars that child support is wrong? u use fals logic and make a fool out of yourself

[EFC100t]

child support IS WRONG, if mom can't parent can't support kid on own they should not have custod, kids need minimal basics and if you an't provide that then you should not "CHOOSE" to be a parent. If someone is married they would have a right to say NO to this or that purchase but because they are divorsed they now are FORCED to buy shit they may consider detrimental to the child. Child Support is gov sponsored EXTORION

[SpringChatty]

No the child support is not wrong, but it should be paid willingly adn not through the court system .

[ORVX]

no your 100% wrong, don't be stupid, ofcouase if oen parent has no say in how the money is spend, it wrong, it's that simple, mom or dad should only buy what they WANT to buy. the only person show BY LAW should be obligated to provide basic needs is the one with custody, im really are you that fucking dumb.

[Tahava]

@sailshane

you are an idiot and need some help!!

[huntinforit]

These women that do these things to their own children love themselves, not the children!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Their quest for vengence consumes them and ultimatly destroys what is left of the family.

[rrpedersen]

His new book "A Promise to ourselves" is incredible!

[ciarabriana]

I,too have been parentally alienated from my son after I could not proove "best interests" in L.A. courts to have him reunified.The cargiver "sister" placed a frivolous injunction against me citing her fear that I would STEAL my son back.A judge granted her injunction, although she stated that I never threatened or harmed her.L.A. turned my son into an orphan after a three year fight.I did all my tasks and have never harmed anyone.Now I suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome as a result.OUCH

[ykmsp]

As an alienated parent from Singapore, I had also been badly affected, but it had definitely made me stronger & more focus in my pursue to be with my son. Nothing matters more than our own life & blood.

And if u believe u are now at your LOWEST point of yr life that I've got good news for u. The only way now is UP.

We have absolutely nothing to lose, so don't give up & just keep fighting for our little ones. They need that assurance that u are battling the storm out there to be with them.
