"::As I pointed out, it is a misrepresentation of Warshak, because you have combined two sentences together, the critical one of which states that only ""Most mental health and legal professionals"" agree, not that it is ""not a point of contention"". (And neither of them mention the ""chronically or irrationally"" part.  That's ignoring the issue of the out-of-date nature of the comment and source. I take it you agree that you have mispresented Bernet.
As I have said, over and over again, nobody disputes that some children may be alienated from their parents.  What is thoroughly in dispute (and almost totally discarded at this point) in the field is Gardner's conception of PAS, including existence, causality, treatment etc..  This is an article about PAS, and all of these aspects are already included included in the article. The influence of parents clearly is a point of contention as one of your own sources makes clear, and why all the newer conceptions (parental alienation, parental alienation disorder, etc) do not include the parent's actions as a criteria for the disorder.  But I'm repeating myself and will do so again. Your paragraph is not an accurate representation of either the sources you have provided, or of the literature in general.
