Dear Parents, Grandparents, and Fellow Advocates,
My name is Nicole Anderson, and I own Parental Alienation Resource, a resource I created for victims of parental alienation.
I’m reaching out to share something I believe can make a meaningful difference in the lives of teens who have grown up caught between two parents, two stories, and two emotional worlds. After years of witnessing parental alienation up close, both personally and through the families I’ve worked with, I’ve written a book designed specifically for alienated teens: Are My Feelings About My Other Parent Really Mine? Alongside it, I’ve released a companion workbook that gives teens structured guidance, emotional space, and thoughtful activities to help them finally recognize which feelings are truly theirs.
These tools were created to help young people begin thinking for themselves, separate from pressure, loyalty conflicts, fear, guilt, or the emotional atmosphere they’ve been raised in. If a teen is able to answer the questions honestly, explore the prompts, and reflect on their own experiences, I believe this set has the potential to be an invaluable resource, and in many cases, a quiet deterrent to manipulation taking root or continuing unchecked.
The book and workbook are deliberately written without blame, without legal terminology, and without any directive that could be misinterpreted as telling a child what to do. They are neutral, supportive, and focused solely on helping a teen understand their own inner world. The book is available through Amazon in both Kindle and print formats, and the workbook, designed specifically for writing, journaling, drawing, and deep reflection, is available in print. The workbook is significantly longer than the book and provides extensive space for teens to explore their feelings creatively, privately, and in ways that don’t trigger defensiveness or fear. It guides them to question gently, think independently, and understand themselves without ever instructing them to challenge a parent, take sides, or confront anyone.
Any parent, grandparent, or advocate who loves a child struggling with distance or alienation should feel safe providing these materials, because the content never accuses, diagnoses, or suggests wrongdoing. It simply empowers a teen to identify their own thoughts separate from adult influence. No resource is completely court-proof, especially in systems where manipulation is minimized or misunderstood, but the reality is that a professional acting in good faith, one who truly cares about the child’s well-being and emotional clarity, would never punish a parent for giving their teen a neutral, therapeutic tool designed to help them better understand themselves. Only those who fear a child’s independent thinking would react negatively to a book that simply encourages emotional honesty.
Because this project was built to amplify the authentic voice of the child, I strongly encourage parents to request that the book and workbook be incorporated into court-ordered therapy, reunification counseling, or individual sessions. If the goal of the court is truly to understand the child’s genuine feelings rather than the versions shaped by conflict or pressure, then giving the teen a structured, reflective space to process those feelings should be welcomed, not discouraged. This resource gives therapists a window into a child’s inner experience without forcing the teen to speak before they’re ready, perform for adults, or feel pressured to align with one parent’s expectations.
Thank you for your ongoing advocacy and the strength you continue to show in impossible situations. I created these resources because teens deserve tools that honor their emotional reality, and because alienated parents deserve something that supports clarity without adding fuel to conflict. My hope is that this book and workbook reach the young people who need them most, giving them a quiet place to find themselves again.
Warmly,
Nicole Anderson
