 “Parental Alienation Syndrome mothers have a way of finding therapists, almost invariably women, who reflexively join them in their campaign of denigration of the father… [who] in some cases even join the mother’s paranoid delusional system . . . some of these therapists are paranoid themselves.  Other harbor deep-seated hostility toward men, hostility so strong that they will seize upon every opportunity to vent their rage on them.”
Richard A. Gardner, Qualifications of Richard A. Gardner, M.D. for providing court testimony 149 (1992), reprinted in, Kathleen Coulborn Faller, The Parental Alienation Syndrome: What is It and What Data Support It?, 3 CHILD MALTREATMENT 100, 102 (1998).
“I believe that the reluctance by sex-abuse workers to recognize and accept the increasing frequency of fabricated sex-abuse allegations relates to certain psychological factors operative in their career choice . . .  I believe that people who have been sexually abused themselves in childhood are much more likely to enter this field than those who have not had such childhood experiences.”
RICHARD A. GARDNER, THE PARENTAL ALIENATION SYNDROME AND THE DIFFERENTIATION BETWEEN FABRICATED AND GENUINE CHILD SEX ABUSE  104 (1987).
