Summary: A Must Read!
Comment: This book is a must read for parents of divorce, psychologists, judges, lawyers, and most importantly gaurdians-at-litem. We have seen how effectively a child's mind can be turned against the parents with the return of Elizabeth Smart. This is an example of The Stockholm Syndrome similar to what Parental Alienation is as described in Ms Ellis book. It is important to note that this book is publshed by The American Psychological Assn: It is sad that the court system regarding divorce and the gaurdian-at-litem program is sexist in the extreme in denying rights to fathers. The prevailing notion is that: women are good and thqt men are bad. Ms. Ellis describes this in detail and gives us a prescription for change. Will the courts heed her?

Summary: Misleading Title
Comment: This book was wonderful in the depth of statistics and in its anecdotal approach to the difficult task of working with high conflict families. The background research was meticulous. I was disappointed in the lack of specificity of detail about "Clinical Technique" necessary to work with these families. I was hoping for an approach suited to the actual nuts and bolts of working in the trenches. Too many books in this area talk about how badly divorced couples act, too few actually address, or share, what works to get them through the maze.
