		<description><![CDATA[I have been fighting this battle for 6 years with now grown children, 24 and 21 years of age.  Their father holds them hostage emotionally and financially being that he was the primary &#039;bread winner&#039; of the family.  He has not taken care of his responsibilities with respect to my alimony and back pay of child support.  He has remarried and has financially supported two other college aged children.  My children have been &#039;taken&#039; from me physically and emotionally at various times in their late teen years.  Even after her father and his new wife &#039;threw&#039; my daughter out of their home in garbage bags and I literally had to build her a room in my small apartment, she still takes his side when his negative effects &#039;wear off&#039;.   I would imagine he gives them an option of &#039;it&#039;s her or you&#039;....and ultimately they choose themselves. My son, who missed his own grandfathers funeral, after being estranged from me for 2 1/2 years is now defending his father who is crying to him/them that I am pursuing him in family court for what he owes me.  If I ever, in the past, brought up our divorce my children would tell me it isn&#039;t their fight and to please not discuss it with them. Now, at the eleventh hour, even after me compromising and compromising ,(which I certainly never had to do) in family court(to try to keep some semblance of sanity) and allowing him to lessen the payments.........he has convinced them that I am not only the aggressor but the enemy.

Children don&#039;t side with the abusive parent because they don&#039;t want to be abused and they are afraid that they will lose that parent.   The kinder, saner parent is less of a threat and is forced to bear this burden.  I am at my wits end. This syndrome must be brought into the foreground in Family Law.  The emotional wreckage is unmeasurable.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If alienating children is considered emotional abuse of those children then why do most states agree but ignore it?   I asked DFS about this in my home town.  They agreed and then told me there is nothing they can do about it.  What&#039;s with this?  No laws? No one seems to care what it is doing to these kids?  My duaghter has not talked to me in over sixteen years.  She is a very angry person and has threatened a stalking charge against me if I try to contact her.  I have never been in jail in my life, have no criminal record, and yet she has been pushed into thought like this?  I know who is doing it but find no way to combat it.  I have tried, there isn&#039;t any.]]></description>
