"We are looking to make Parental Alienation and Hostile Aggressive Parenting part of the public vocabulary," stated Sarvy Emo, President and co-founder of Parental Alienation Awareness Organization.
"Only when such behaviors, as speaking negatively about a parent, interfering with communication and visitation, moving and leaving no contact information, and discussing such inappropriate topics as details of the marriage and divorce, can be recognized for the harm they can do to children, will we be able to address solutions to these situations," adds Robin Denison, Vice President and co-founder of Parental Alienation Awareness Organization.
