Snake oil Sales Slacken

or: Psychologists are Superfluous

An 18 year old in Ontario has most reasonably and intelligently slammed the pas/pa theory and the destructive therapies that are attached to that ill conceived idea. The article Brainwashing Battle appears on the front page of the Globe and Mail, Toronto, Canada.

I wonder how the snake oil salespeople will spin THAT. I consider this more than one family saved- (his) - this can be cited by lawyers everywhere. A triumph of reason crosses political boundaries. This is a "victory" for human rights. The people who know this young man should be absolutely bursting with pride. I wonder if he realizes what a momentous event he has inspired.Fidler and others- better go bankrupt NOW. Few are buying your product.

Herod's Slaughter of The Innocents v. ours

So- apparently King Herod was really paranoid about a new king being born (Jesus) - so he had every boy child killed- all the ones his goons could find, anyway. Researchers figure 6.000 were killed. The bones- or some of them- are collected -I think it is under the Church of the Nativity-

Well- seems like we have Herod wannabees- those guys that kill their kids- or anyone around -
Fathers' rights ? - King Herod followers.Then there are thousands who suffer soul murder- just had a cool idea- why not build virtual reality rooms into prisons- a bit like they used to have on Star Trek- put the child abuser/wife-beater/bestiality practitioner into the rooms- so he experiences what he did to his children/wife/other children/dogs/cats etc. Well- I can dream- one of the few liberties not taken from me by ignorance, stupidity and maliciousness.

STEP RIGHT UP!!

Hey Man....

Are you feeling frustrated?
Kids don't want to come for visitation?
They don't want to talk to you on the phone?
Kids tell you you are mean and they don't like your new girlfriend?
They call you a bully?
But when they are forced to go see you and you have lots of promises of presents
they are happy as a pig in shit?
Does all of this sound familiar brother?
Are you convinced your ex wife is making the kids hate you?
Don't blame the ex, don't blame some pro-pedophiliac kiddie loving syndrome!
No, you need to blame yourself and NO ONE ELSE!
Blame yourself for loving golf more than your kids, all those times you didn't show up for soccer games let alone parent-teacher conferences! Yelling at your kids or spouse to "Shut the f*** up!"because the game was on.
Blame yourself because you left ALL of the child rearing up to your wife but
YOU took the credit when someone complimented you on their behavior.
Blame yourself for putting your new girlfriend before your kids and making them feel like second best. Blame yourself for putting yourself first all of those years because the kids saw it and knew it.

The reason your kids don't want to see you or be with you is because
of YOU! Nothing else.
AND NO AMOUNT OF SNAKE OIL CAN CHANGE THAT SHIT!

Souls on Stakes

Toronto.March 27.2009

Apparently some marauders would keep their victims' heads and/or eat their hearts; in the feasting, hoping to ingest the courage and integrity of their former foes.

Perhaps this habit of past cultures could explain the popularity of PAS/PA theories among alleged abusers and their supporters. Perhaps supporters of pro-pedophilia theories hope to gain understanding into the ethics of the majority population- by committing soul-murder of the mother and especially, the children.

Or maybe I am just searching for an explanation of the incomprehensible and reprehensible actions that accompany the use of these PAS/PA theories. I refer, this time, to the "case" of A.G.L. v.K.B.D..

It is certainly an effective way to stop all decent human beings from reporting child sexual abuse- especially mothers who are going to, are or have been in a divorce situation with the alleged abuser. I know I stopped. Never did I or will I ever again report suspected or witnessed child sexual abuse. Because I know the victims will be sent to live with their rapist.What is the point of reporting and trying to protect one's children, if one is not believed and treated as a criminal ? And the children sent in custody of their abuser ?

Strange Bags

There once was a man called Sacks
Who was known to consort with quacks.
One day in his article
He dangled a partciple
And his sponsors dealt him some whacks.

Swansong (not)

If ever you see Jeremy Swanson
Be aware he is not too handson.
He tortured his wife
And lived with strife
And now his activities are loatheson.

A Sappho Moment

It occurs to me that all the child murders and often,their mothers' murders , are the natural un natural result of messed up pas etc. arguments used in courts-and these mothers did not accept the twisted logic that obliges them -and the children- to have contact with the father.So, certain fathers-especially the ones that seek custody- on realizing that even court orders cannot force the mother to submit to his continued and often escalated abuse- kill the children- the ultimate control/power move. Really- the courts and psychologists and youth protection /social worker types should be proud that their -ideas are bearing fruit. One could logically argue that all these killings are the natural result of previous un natural proceedings.
And , of course- a bunch of suicides. To say nothing of the myriad effects and untold misery experienced by protective mothers and their hurt children.

On Paternity Leave

I've never considered the argument for men having leave upon the birth of their children. It sounds practical though. I'm sure they're excited about the birth--perhaps even tired from hours of labor support and newborn adventures. And it's always nice to have some helping hands around.

But what purpose do men serve at home, if moms are

cooking and cleaning
nursing or weaning
rocking and changing
washing,
rearranging

burping and feeding
humming and reading
scrubbing and rubbing
kissing
hugging?


The wear and tear on women's bodies is unmatched. A woman's body brings forth life. It is the greatest sacrifice for which there is no comparison. Upon birth, a mother's job has not just begun, but rather it is a continuation of the care she provided to her body before and during pregnancy.

Should men have extended paternity leave, or leave comparable to that of women?

Surely, if he is "similarly situated."

A LIE IN OUR NATION

There is a lie in our nation
Called Parental Alienation
Where the horror of abuse
Is denied as a ruse
The truth is revealed
But the abuse is concealed
The distortion of reality
Is accepted by authority
The victims outcry
But the abuser has an alibi
The tables get turned
Like a witch to be burned
The abuser has rights
And the power and the might
To treat the children as chattel
As if they were cattle
A Protective Parent is jailed and reviled
While the villain rejoices alone with the child
Terror reigns supreme
Protection is now only a dream
A heartbroken parent and a child in despair
Must now count the days until the world becomes aware

A Sunday Prayer

Our R.G. father who art in hell
Cursed be thy name
Your kindom of hate continues
And psychos follow your commands on earth and in hell.

Give us this day our daily attacks
And forgive us for protecting children
But we do not forgive those who abuse us and children
Lead us not to be tempted to join with your abusers
But deliver us from your evil.

For yours is the kingdom of PAS destruction,
Unmitigated power over lives and glory to abusers.

About Muses

The Nine Muses were Greek goddesses who ruled over the arts and sciences and offered inspiration in those subjects. They were the daughters of Zeus, lord of all gods, and Mnemosyne, who represented memory. Memory was important for the Muses because in ancient times, when there were no books, poets had to carry their work in their memories.

Now we not only have memories we have technology and blogs as to educate, warn and prevent tragedies from repeating themselves.

"[The Muses] are all of one mind, their hearts are set upon song and their spirit is free from care. He is happy whom the Muses love. For though a man has sorrow and grief in his soul, yet when the servant of the Muses sings, at once he forgets his dark thoughts and remembers not his troubles. Such is the holy gift of the Muses to men."
~Hesiod~
