ANNE GRANT SPEAKS OUT AGAINST THE USE OF "PARENTAL ALIENATION SYNDROME" IN CUSTODY SWITCHING SCAMS IN RHODE ISLAND! THESE VERY SAME SCAMS ARE TAKING PLACE REGULARLY IN CONNECTICUT AS WELL!

In speaking out against an attorney who stands in support of PAS theory, Anne Grant stated the following: 

"Last night I testified before the Judicial Nominating Commission against a lawyer seeking to become a Family Court judge. I am posting that testimony here with linked documents for commissioners, candidates, and the public. (These links do not work from the body of the text, but only from the references given in the footnotes.)

Please notify me, Anne Grant, ParentingProject@verizon.net if you have any concerns or corrections regarding this testimony. Thank you. 

§ 8-16.1-4  Criteria for selection of best qualified nominees. – The commission shall consider, but is not limited to, the following factors in selecting the best qualified nominees: intellect, ability, temperament, impartiality, diligence, experience, maturity, education, publications, and record of public, community, and government service. … The commission shall also consider the candidate's sensitivity to historically disadvantaged classes, and may disqualify any candidate with a demonstrated history of bias towards any of these classes.[i] 

Your criteria for selecting nominees includes impartiality, diligence, publications, and sensitivity to historically disadvantaged classes. Barbara Barrow wrote an article for the Rhode Island Bar Journal that disqualifies her for the bench on those grounds. I am posting this testimony with linked references so you can examine the sources for yourself.

Barbara Barrow’s article, “Parental Alienation Syndrome in Divorce”[ii] is simplistic and ignores factual evidence. What she leaves out is significant. She says that Richard A. Gardner, M.D., introduced “Parental Alienation” in the 1980s. She does not mention these facts:

·      Dr. Gardner was a psychiatrist on a mission to normalize sex between adults and children.[iii]

·      He was a leading lobbyist against mandatory reporting of child sex abuse.[iv]

·      He set up his own publishing company in New Jersey called “Creative Therapeutics.”

·      He published his theories without standards of peer review that are essential to establish scientific claims.

·      He falsely identified himself as a Clinical Professor of Child Psychiatry at Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons, a claim Columbia denied, asserting he was only a volunteer.[v]

·      Dr. Gardner served as an expert witness in more than 400 custody cases.

·      He committed suicide in 2003.[vi]

Gardner held that children who claim to be sexually abused by fathers should not be believed. He hypothesized that the mothers had alienated, brainwashed, coached, and programmed their children. In one of the last interviews Gardner gave, Garland Wallerasked what a mother should do when her child accuses a father of sexual abuse. Gardner replied the mother should say: “I don't believe you. I am going to beat you for saying that. Don't you ever talk that way again about your father.”[vii]...."
