Product Description
This is the first book to provide objective methods for establishing that a child has been brainwashed by one parent against another. It is based on a ten-year study of 700 cases in the authors' counseling and evaluative work with children of divorced couples. In clear, straightforward language you will learn about: -- The eight stages of programming and brainwashing: what happens during each stage, the various players and their targets -- Identifying brainwashing techniques: 12 brainwashing syndromes how they work and strategies for dealing with them -- Uncovering motives and strategies: identifying the driving force the manipulator s purpose, rationale, and tactics -- Interviewing children: what to listen for, the questions to ask, and a chart of childrens typical statements and what they indicate about the presence of brainwashing -- Determining the type, extent, and degree of social-psychological impact on the child, incuding diagnostic demonstrations and clues -- Intervention: countering the destructive effects on the child the techniques and methods, whit their risks and limitations It s a terrible fact: custody disputes often devolve into guerilla warfare, in which the child is subverted by one parent and turned as a weapon against the other. Children Held Hostage equips you with the understanding and practical direction needed to protect the child and the targeted parent from the results of brainwashing.

Simply the best reference available April 16, 2008

I have firsthand experience with this topic, and I have worked with many victims of this type of brainwashing in my position as director of America's Stolen Children Network. I believe I've read every book on this subject and none compare to this one. This is simply the best reference available. If you are a therapist or counselor, do not consider interacting with clients of this kind without having read this book. This is the real deal!

Children Held Hostage is the very best book for help in understanding and identifying PARENTAL ALIENATION. It should be in the hands of every Lawyer, Guardian ad Litem, Psychologist and any one working with children. It, also, is very beneficial for parents to read, who are suffering from this disorder. Parental Alienation is cruel and breaks the bond-of-love between a parent and child. Before allowing a Guardian ad Litem or others to intervene, he/she should read this book. I cannot praise it enough.

This is the most in depth book on the market for someone in a hostile custody battle involving parental alienation syndrome. The authors have addressed significant issues in great detail. They have provided useful tools to combat the issues at hand and given hope to those embroiled in the battle.

One of the best studies of the damage of alienating parental behaviour in divorce does to children. This was a pre-cursor to Gardner's terminology of Parental Alienation Syndrome, but all that here discusses is here. This book will help many divorced
parents monitor their own behaviour, as well as help their children, with the knowledge of how the children are being impacted. Expensive, but very informative.

I was given this book to read after 3 months of weekly counseling with my husband. It was clear to our counselor that my stepdaughter was being programmed and brainwashed for the past 14 years by her mother and step-father of 14 years. (I've been in her life for the past 8 years). What I read was very disturbing in that it hit home in so many places. The process and definitions were clear and easily identifiable. The book helped me understand what's been going on and how it happened. In our case the history has been many many years and the programmers'/ brainwashers' support group includes the mother, stepfather, half and step-siblings and grand- parents (among others). I suspect that this behavior is very common in divorce situations (with children) in varying degrees. This book should be given to all parents who separate/divorce in hopes that they do better by their children and work together to put their children first.
