You can click on the picture above to see where I found this quote. So many things grab my attention about the above quote.
"Willful violation" and
"primary duties of parenthood."
My ex had accused me for so long of his bogus version of
"parental alienation syndrome." It mystified me, because not only did I
never keep the kids from their father, but I was the one who paid for the phone bills and plane fare to connect them with their father. The very person who accused me of P.A.S. "kidnapped" one of my children--the vulnerable child who has never been able to stand up to that parent and say "no, that's not OK." Shouldn't one of the
other prime duties of parenthood to
not take advantage of a vulnerable child and use them as a
pawn?
You can read more about what has happened to my kids over the last couple years
here, and

I miss my child so much! It has been almost a year since I have been
allowed to see my missing child. I have requested time, and time and again for contact with my child and been told "no." Oh, and by the way, in case you are new to this blog--I am primary custodial parent of this missing child.
This has definitely been a situation of
direct and willful violation of the prime duties of parenthood. By the way, the
siblings of this kidnapped child very much miss their other sibling as well.
"The basic difference between being assertive and being aggressive
is how our words and behaviors affect the rights and well being of others."

Parents who try to buy their children's affection are setting them up for unrealistic expectations of what to expect from others. The world will not open up its wallet for their children the second he or she becomes unhappy.
Not only did he neglect to return my child after summer visitation and deny my requests to see my child on school breaks thus far, but now I am also expected to continue to pay for my child's out of state medical expenses.
