- Summary
- "Drawing on international research, this book discusses the problems and suffering encountered by parents and their children when parental alienation occurs. It identifies the signs of PAS. Concerned with the important task of seeking to remedy PAS, Lowenstein's basic principle is that both parents have the right and the responsibility to guide their children appropriately. He also addresses the role of judges who have to make decisions for the benefit of children, based on the real facts as to why a child wishes no, or little, contact with an absent parent Both the experts and the courts need to help parents resolve their differences to safeguard the welfare of their children."--book jacket.
