Besides Richard Gardner, J. Michael Bone has done immeasurable harm to parents and children victimized by the fraudulent intentional custody change theories that lie at the core of the hypothetical theory of Parental Alienation and Parental Alienation Syndrome. The non-custodial parent is favored in every way. Any demand, any complaint by a non-custodial parent can be recast by these unethical psychologists as parental alienation. Just have a child who is abused who refused to visit the abuser, and the protective parent and victimized child will be patholized and vilified by these unethical so-called experts. Research published by both Bone and Gardner reflect their own viewpoints and own ideas. Others may have jumped on this money train to make endless amounts of highly profitable work to the detriment of the victims, but the ideas behind the theories lack evidence to substantiate them. This "lack of evidence" is the official statement by the APA on Parental Alienation Syndrome. But the APA does not seem to want to ever restrain any research and appears to do nothing in the way of discipline regarding far fetched theories, no matter how offensive. Just as in the Rind Study which required an act of congress to denounce it, Parental Alienation is based on pro-pedophilia ideas. One wonders why anyone would condone these studies unless they agreed with them.
J. Michael Bone advertises extensively, offering training, lecturing, consulting and has multiple websites pushing his parental alienation ideas. Upon further investigation though, J. Michael Bone is not a licensed mental health professional. It appears that his license was relinquished after multiple complaints regarding his evaluations. Disciplinary hearings were held in February of 2007. His license was relinquished after complaints were filed regarding failure to consider other theories or to follow ethical regulations.
Anyone forced to undergo parental alienation evaluations is forced under duress by court order to go to these crackpot psychologists who everyone knows repeatedly "diagnose" or more accurately stated, ACCUSE parental alienation. No custodial parent forced into any of these evaluations will ever be the same after having to fend off these phony accusations of hypothetical theories. Especially when the psychologist is able to just make this stuff up. These sham exams have no more validity than witchcraft accusations. They can claim that a behavior of a child is the result of something the custodial parent has done, but in REALITY there is no scientific way of ever proving this correlation with the accuracy required to make it provable by scientific standards. The theory summarily rejects any other possible causes for a child's behavior, other than it's always the fault of the custodial parent.
Children who complain of abuse and refuse visitation should be listened to as to what the problem is. Histories of domestic abuse and child abuse are very valid reasons for not wanting to endure forced relationships with the offending party!

J. Michael Bone (John Michael Bone) of Winter Park, Fl has lost his license to practice mental health. He is one of the biggest crooks I've ever seen. Any attorney who has worked with this bastard should also lose their license to practice law. I am so glad God stepped in a gave Bone exactly what he deserved.

I discovered J Michael Bone about a year ago and have been suspisious of him. He's to good to be true. I appreciate hearing he lost his license to practice mental health. You can find a lot about PA and PAS on the internet and what struck me is his name comes up everywhere. He is just one more in the corruption of our Family Court System. He is promoting himself to make money. plain and simple, it's what they all do, judges, mediators, parenting time expiditors, GAL's, etc... People need to be aware of the preditors and I am convinced that greed is running the family courts. It's all about money, not the children.
Fuckyou.... Pas is real. I can prove it. Abd it will be In the dsm. Untill you have been there, you know. There more stupid thing that passed in the dsm, because PSA NEEDS NO meds. You fucks lose money.
The "debunk" crowd that think PAS is some sort of fictional witch hunt has never experienced the pain of an ex-spouse's campaign to systematically erase their father out of their lives. Such classic lines as "if you divorce me, you divorce the family (ie. kids)".
There simply are no words to describe how hurtful it is to the alienated parent and confusing (and scarring) it is to the children that are mentally coerced to join the alienating parent's campaign of alienation (out of fear of losing acceptance/love of the alienating parent and losing them as well as the alienated parent).
It is truly a game of masterful manipulation by the alienating parent whose goal is to plant the seeds of alienation, making the targeted parent seem irrelevant or worse yet, inhuman and worthy of contempt and alienation.
For those of you that think Dr Bone is a fraud or a sham......every one has an opinion - and I won't argue if you are right or wrong since I don't know this man, personally. However, I do know PAS because I'm a father that is not abusive, pays child support regularly, has followed all of the divorce paperwork and instructions but has an ex-spouse that has successfully alienated 2 of my 3 children. The youngest child will see me but is verbally abused by the mother when he does.
People, PAS is very, very real......unfortunately, this kind of child abuse is very hard to detect because the bruises and cuts are internal unlike actual physical abuse which can be more easily detected.
By the way, I'm not some misogynist who is "against women/moms".....PAS is an "equal opportunity" abusive game that a father or mother can play. However, there are more cases of PAS being performed by mothers - but I suspect this is due to the high percentage of divorces where the mother is granted custody.

He just recently drained my ex for 3500.00 and will continue to drain anyone that calls his number .He and his partners that he refers to testify are all quacks and are only out for a dollar . I guess if ur dumb enuff to believe him you will pay him.
No one doubts that PA exists - yes it is very real and its a crime much like Child abuse and should be treated as a crime with criminal sanctions as you would with child abuse. What we stand in opposition to are some of the QUACK Science and theories described by Gardner and his followers. Inclusion of PA into the DSM profits only those so called experts who look to line their pockets with our money.
Robert Evans from Palm Harbor is the front man for this guy, Bone. Beware. He is also a fraud.
