Come on get happy…

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

It is hard to believe that when you go to Amazon.com and type A Family’s Heartbreak into the search field, the entry that comes up for sale after A Family’s Heartbreak: A Parent’s Introduction to Parental Alienation is The Partridge Family: The Complete 4th Season. I mean, what kind of connection exists between a parental alienation book and a lip-synching family that traveled around in a psychedelic bus? 

Does Amazon know something we don’t know? Is the unknown connection the thought-to-be-deceased Mr. Partridge? We were told that Shirley Jones was a widow. But did she just say she was a widow and in reality alienate Keith, Danny and Lori from their Dad? Think about it — the kids never talked about Dad, or wished that he could attend one of their concerts. Mrs. Partridge and Reuben didn’t do anything to keep Dad’s memory alive either. All very suspicious if you ask me.

Perhaps it will take a VH1 Partridge Family Behind the Music to know for sure. Until then, you can get the truth about parental alienation from other sources. One source is the U.K.’s Natasha Phillips on Researching Reform, a program highlighting developments in England’s legal system. Mike Jeffries, author of A Family’s Heartbreak: A Parent’s Introduction to Parental Alienation, recently discussed marriage, the legal system, and parental alienation on Researching Reform. The complete interview is at link below.

Start the New Year with Mike Jeffries

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

Mike Jeffries, Author of A Family’s Heartbreak: A Parent’s Introduction to Parental Alienation, is starting the new year with guest appearances on two separate radio programs.

On January 6 at 9:00 a.m. EST (6:00 a.m. Pacific) Jeffries will be the very first guest on the ”Let’s Talk Family” radio program hosted by Steve Ashley. The “Let’s Talk Family” program airs locally on KSQQ 96.1 FM  in San Jose, California and is streamed live on the internet. Jeffries will discuss his experience with parental alienation — a destructive family dynamic where one parent damages, and in some cases destroys, a child’s normal healthy relationship with the child’s other parent – and how his book, A Family’s Heartbreak: A Parent’s Introduction to Parental Alienation, is helping families avoid what his family experienced. 

On January 7 at 7:00 p.m. EST Jeffries will join Host Paulette MacDonald on the “The Single Parent Show” on CFAO 94.7 FM (www.cfao947.com), Alliston Ontario’s Best Variety station.  
“The Single Parent Show” is an educational program covering a variety of topics involving parenting issues after separation and divorce. Jeffries will describe parental alienation and offer targeted parents tips on surviving this emotional devastating experience.

Both programs will be posted on the Resources page of www.afamilysheartbreak.com after their broadcasts.

Must See Internet TV

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

The DadsDivorce.com podcast on parental alienation and our book, A Family’s Heartbreak: A Parent’s Introduction to Parental Alienation has been up at www.dadsdivorce.com for only a couple of days and has already received more than 200 hits.

I was very impressed with host Rick Ortiz and the quality of the production.  Rick knew his topic and the production values are as good as anything you’ll see on TV.  The 30 minute program covers a lot of ground — parental alienation from each family member’s perspective to the role of the courts in alienation cases.  We even talked about how A Family’s Heartbreak: A Parent’s Introduction to Parental Alienation went from an idea to a book.

Check out the interview if you get a chance –

On the Radio

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

I once worked for someone who was such a die-hard radio fan that he used to say television was a passing fad. He was kidding — I think.

In any event, radio is becoming a big fan of parental alienation and our book, A Family’s Heartbreak: A Parent’s Introduction to Parental Alienation. I was on two shows this week talking about parental alienation and the book.

The first appearance was on Family Law Radio with Barry Kilgore on April 19. Family Law Radio is a nationally syndicated program carried on KSEV AM in Houston Texas.  

The second appearance was on Dads on the Air, a show originating from Sydney, Australia. Dads on the Air is billed as the most successful community radio program in Australia. I was a guest on this program either April 20 or 21 — the exact date depends on which side of the International Date Line you happened to be listening from.  Here is a link to the show –http://www.dadsontheair.net/shows/Dads_on_the_Air_2009-04-21.mp3.

We’re putting recordings of both programs on the Family’s Heartbreak Resource page. Tune in at your convenience and listen to us discuss parental alienation and answer questions from listeners.
