To qualify; I am an alienated father of three daughters 27, 24 and 20 years old, I am also an alienated grandfather. (WE QUALIFY AT EACH PA-A.ORG SUPPORT GROUP MEETING BEFORE WE SHARE OUR THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY)
This year the addition of my Parental Alienation Anonymous support group meetings and community has been life changing. I have a community I see SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK ON ZOOM CALLS, and I also have folks that I text and exchange calls with daily.
I have support that MY family and friends could not provide. I do not need to explain my feelings and or behaviors that are associated with Parental Alienation (PA), what a relief. The meetings are structured with a leader and secretary. There is a script that they follow in order to keep the meeting safe and orderly. It is a place of recovery, a place we get to tell our stories and also work on our emotionally and spiritual recovery. Every one has 3 minutes to share and 1 minute to wrap up.
THE MEETINGS are a place of hope and change. In the context of systems theory in general and family systems in particular, the number one leverage point is the individual. That means you and I are the most important leverage point (intervention point) in our family systems. We have to be the healthiest version of ourselves when we engage with the system. I used to try get everyone to listen to me, to understand all the trauma and drama and help me get my kids back. I was operating from a reactive fragmented place. I exasperated the situation often and lost opportunities to create sustainable change. I was responsible for so much of the carnage. Today with the help of the 12 steps of PA-A.org I show up from a grounded, integrated space most of the time. Attorneys, therapists, judges and other folks no longer view me as a emotionally reactive threat. I am now able to contribute to the solution. I wish I would have had a community like this in my early days of PA it would have made a world of difference.
I am looking at the website to try to find the phone list and the sign up for service positions. Can someone direct me to them? Thanks.
HI Jim,
You are already on the phone list and an email was sent out awhile ago with access I will resend it today. Makes sure to double check your spam. You can respond to the email with service positions you are interested in and we can set up a zoom call after that to discuss options.

I am systematically being erased and it’s killing me.
HI Kris,
It’s a horrendous situation for us all. It sounds like you are really struggling with the loss. Guessing some support would be useful? Our groups are great, they help build community and a solid base for regaining a semblance of control of your life. Sign up on the contact form on the web site, if this might be useful.

Hi, I’d like to join the PST meeting for today, but I’m not finding where to get the sign in info. If someone could point me in . right direction or email it to me before the start, it would be much appreciated. Thanks!
I am dealing with adult children who I have been alienated from due to the lies and manipulations of their father. It seems like the people around me don’t want to touch the issue which compounds the hurt and loneliness.
HI Kathleen,
Sounds really hard and frustrating. WE have a great community of parents, grandparents & other relatives at our meetings. You would benefit in getting some consistent support I would guess. Fill out the contact form to get added.

Hi Corey,
You have been added to 1x weekly email list with all the information you will need.
hope to see you around:)
I have been dealing with this for almost three years now and only recently came to understand this is a phenomenon beyond my personal one. I would love to get involved and share what I can to help others as well as myself to find some peace and healing amid this incredibly painful and tortuous challenge. I am currently on day 773 of consecutive days with at least one meditation session. I am trying to use this as a spur for positive growth. Please let me know when meetings are.
Sounds like you are getting a lot of relief out of meditation. YAY U
An email went out to you on Wednesday with meeting information and links. Please check your spam if you don’t see it.

Best,
Ella
I’m feeling a lot of fear around joining this group. I’m afraid I will only harm myself by engaging my thoughts and emotions around the loss of my children, but maybe I’m wrong and this is exactly what I need. My situation is 100% my responsibility to manage, but less than 10% my fault. I am a victim and my children are victims and pretending that’s not true is just that, pretending. Please tell me if this is a group founded on self-blame because I will only “Monday morning quarter-back” myself so far. Thank you.
The group is a great place to work on yourself and start your healing process. It is not easy and it is incredible rewarding. When Im alone with my thoughts only I tend to exasperate all challanging areas in my life. I added you to the group email, please check your email or spam.
hope to see you at a meeting
