BERMUDA

Please see attached a few photos of the event and the reading of the proclamation, by the Minister The Honourable Dale Butler on the steps of City Hall. We presented him with a Teddy Bear as a symbol of all our alienated children, also, a copy of ChildWatch's "Family Law Reform Submissions". The Shadow Minister was also, presented with a copy of ChildWatch's " Family Law Reform Submissions", on that day.

I trust that it was a success worldwide, thanks to you and PAAO, and look forward working with you in the near future.

ALBERTA
Despite the cold winds, we held our Information Event and Petition Drive outside of Edmonton City Hall, Winston Churchill Square from 1100-1400h and at the Alberta Legislature (North steps) from 1500-1800h on Friday April 25, 2008.

We had the PAAO pamplet, PAAD Alberta Petition, numerous PA resources (various books, suggested reading list, PAAO website Mission and Selected Articles printouts) as well as my laptop playing selected DVDs on PA topics and to keep spirits up, my personal PAAO iTunes playlist.

It would be less than honest to say there was alot of interest, but the poor weather certianly had some influence. In any case some curious individuals came and enquired about PA, and whenever possible we sallied forth to engage others. Clearly, few are even aware of PA.

I would like to THANK EVERYONE who contributed to our 2008 PAAD Event and remind all that "from small acorns grow might oaks".

Over the next year I hope others will harness their own concerns about PA and join with us in order to make April 25, 2009 a better and more sucessful event.



BRITISH COLUMBIA
I just wanted to let you know that we are mounting a media campaign here in BC Canada regarding PA. The Family Relations Act is currently under review and we want the public to be aware that despite out best efforts, PA is not on the agenda. We are spending about $8000.00 Cdn to do this. We are also going to be putting a special promo front page on our site (below) and our sister organization PCBC (www.parentswhocare.ca) for PAA Day. If you have any questions please contact me and I will endeavour to answer them and/or pass you to the Programs & Communications Director, John Westwood, or the Executive Director Theo J. Boere.

Let's rally in front of the Family Court House in Downtown San Diego to educate the Judges and Mediators how parent alienation is distroying our children because we do not have equal parenting. Parent alienation is a tool the custodial parent use to win in court and receive more child support or used just for revenge. Either way it distroys our children and is child abuse. I hope you come out to support our children and help prevent abuse.

TEXAS
The Court issued a Proclamation on Monday, April 7th, to Proclaim the Month of April as Child Abuse Prevention Month. Normally these proclamations are done only once a year. He stated, that next year if you could get with Child Guidance and have them add this information to the proclamation it would cover all. He said, that Monday, April 14th during the Public Comment section, he will publicly acknowledge that April 25th is Parental Alienation Awareness which is part of " Child Abuse Prevention" and if you would like to be in court that date, court starts @ 10am, in the Commissioners Courtroom.

Please join a group of concerned parents, grandparents, and other extended family members, in a candle-light vigil on

If you are unable to attend West Virginia's 1st Annual Candlelight Vigil for Parental Alienation Awareness, please consider holding a vigil in your hometown. Then email the details to: mawad.info@mawadwv.org




MEXICO



Pictures show parents showing signs of love for their children. One of the pictures show the conversation I had with the President of the Superior Tribunal of Justice, Magistrado Jesus Garduño Salazar, who was present at our gathering.

The results of our manifestation was amazing. We were invited by legislators to start working to change laws and promote parental awareness using the legislator facilities. We will meet each week from now, all year to work together legislators, judges and affected parents.

As a next step, I am going to ask important Foundations such as Fundacion Azteca and Fundacion Televisa (major TV companies) to support us with national TV campaigns to promote PA.

I am sure that in one year we will have important results.

Press Release 25 April 2008
PARENTAL ALIENATION AWARENESS WORLD DAY

This morning the association Figli Negati did commemorate the world initiative promoted by Canadian Association against Parental Alienation. To pay homage to Liberation Day for our country, we did not make a sit-in. But our wish was to take some photos in the most symbolic Italian place, at Colosseo. Here we are. The other associations in the world joining this event know they can always rely on us. Today was a historical day for all these countries in the world that are underestimating how serious is PAS for children of separated parents. Our way is to do thing, and not just to stop at words. This is the way to make history. Taking part and teaching to those absents that civilization is still far from us. Thanks to the participants and a very special thank to Diego who became our mascotte. Born only a few days ago, he is already fighting for freedom of children from injustices depriving them of father or mother, paternal or maternal grandparents.

Ce matin l'association Figli Negati a commémoré l'initiative mondiale de l'association Canadienne pour la lutte contre l'aliénation parentale.

Nous y sommes. Les autres associations du monde qui ont adhéré à cet évènement savent qu'elles pourront toujours compter sur nous. Aujourd'hui a représenté une page d'histoire pour tous les pays du monde qui sous-estiment la gravité du SAP pour les enfants de parents séparés. Nous aimons faire les choses et pas simplement nous arrêter à des déclarations. C'est comme ça que se fait l'histoire. Participer et enseigner aux absents que la civilisation est encore bien loin. Merci aux participants et un remerciement particulier au petit Diego qui est devenu notre mascotte. Il n'a que quelques jours mais il lutte déjà pour libérer les enfants des injustices qui les privent d'un père ou d'une mère, des grands-parents paternels ou maternels.

GIORNATA MONDIALE CONTRO L'ALIENAZIONE GENITORIALE

Questa mattina l'associazione Figli Negati ha commemorato l'iniziativa mondiale dell'associazione Canadese sulla lotta contro l'alienazione genitoriale. Non abbiamo voluto fare una manifestazione in onore della giornata di liberazione del nostro Paese. Però abbiamo voluto scattare alcune foto nel posto simbolo d'Italia, il Colosseo. Noi ci siamo. Le altre associazioni del mondo che hanno aderito sanno che su di noi possono contare sempre. Oggi è stata una giornata di storia per tutti i Paesi del mondo che sottovalutano la gravità della sindrome di alienazione genitoriale sui figli dei separati. Noi amiamo fare le cose e non fermarci alle dichiarazioni. La storia si fa così. Partecipare ed insegnare agli assenti che la civiltà è ancora lontana. Grazie ai partecipanti ed in particolare al piccolo Diego divenuto mascotte del movimento. E' nato da pochi giorni ma già lotta per la liberazione dei figli dalle ingiustizie che li privano del padre o della madre, dei nonni paterni o materni.

UNITED KINGDOM


To highlight the 3rd International Parental Alienation Awareness Day on 25 April 2008 FNF, JUMP and MATCH will be circulating a Press Release highlighting their joint collaboration on recently undertaken research on Parental Alienation.

A summary report of this research can be accessed via: http://www.fnf.org.uk/downloads/Parental_Alienation_Report_Final_version.pdf

A Press Release will follow within the next 24 hours.

We must continue to work together to raise awareness of one of the most emotionally abusive situations that can affect children following separation and divorce.

It may be too late to help our own children who are victims of PA but our hope is that it will help other parents and children avoid the life-destroying pain and anguish which results from this form of brainwashing.
