This will air exclusively on our Families Divided TV you tube channel.https://www.youtube.com/@FamiliesDividedTV The clinical, experiential and legal knowledge informing responses to Parental Alienation are still a work in progress.

Brian Ludmer’s presentation looks back on the preceding 35 years since a seminal Decision in Montréal, Québec Canada exhibited most of the major understandings representing state-of-the-art knowledge today. The presentation explores why we are still struggling to have these fundamental truths broadly accepted in the helping professions and legal profession, including Courts.
A reminder of the specific findings from this 1991 case should trigger reflections on why we are re-fighting these battles and contesting findings that should be accepted broadly.
