Alec Baldwin Talks About Parental Alienation

Alec Baldwin gave his public apology on The View. I would have rather seen him on Fox News, but he thinks they are owned by Satan, which they’re not, I’ve checked. My only criticism of his appearance is that he didn’t shave. Rosie shaves every day, why couldn’t Alec?

Alec was very sincere, and made an especially important point when he said that a child feels they are betraying their custodial parent if they don’t reject the other parent as their custodial parent has. What’s that called? Parental alienation. What do courts do to prevent this? The courts encourage this by allowing the custodial parent to keep the other parent from having visitation. It never seems to be what’s in the best interest of the child, but instead about who wins and who loses in the courts. Family courts really need to be reformed.

If the courts did what was right, then they would make sure the child could see both parents. There are times when one parent is a danger. The problem in most cases though, is that one parent abuses the system by falsely claiming the other parent is a danger.

When Alec left his rant on voicemail he showed a lot of frustration, but it’s doubtful that he’s a danger. Kim Basinger hired a body guard for daughter Ireland anyway, because she wants the court to believe Alec is a danger. I don’t even like Alec, and yet I like Kim even less now. It’s obvious, at least to me, that Kim is abusing a system setup to legitimately protect children in real cases where a parent is a danger.

More needs to be done to help fathers who want to be in their children’s life.
