This new program from Garland Waller, the producer of the award-winning Small Justice: Little Justice in America's Family Courts, is designed to stimulate discussion and to help experts understand the controversy surrounding "Parental Alienation Syndrome," a theory invented by Dr. Richard Gardner that is misleading at best, and dangerous and damaging at worst.

The video features an interview with Dr. Gardner, completed a few years before he committed suicide and clips from a television interview program, featuring Waller and Dr. Joy Silberg of The Leadership Council. Cutting back a forth between Gardner and the studio , viewers can see for themselves that Gardner's arguments are not only flawed, but extremely harmful to children and the protective parent, whether mother or father, who has raised the issue of possible sexual abuse.

Small Justice helped to raise awareness of alarming injustices in the family courts that seem ill prepared to handle matters that touch on criminal sexual conduct. This new program will add an important dimension to this on-going problem and hopefully lead to helpful solutions.
