Acclaim for The Parentectomy 


The Parentectomy is one of the most captivating books I have read in years. Kimber Adams did a magnificent job of describing the unfortunate decisions that too many parents make during divorce; to use the children as pawns. But she did an even better job at describing the emotions and thought process behind the sacrifice only the bravest of parents are willing to make in order to protect their children from the emotional scars of Parental Alienation: letting go. Thank you Kimber, for touching my soul with such an inspiring novel.

The Parentectomy is a true illustration of parental alienation. It sets the stage showing that divorce can turn into a war based on revenge. This memoir is the representation of a father that uses anger and revenge to punish his wife for terminating the marriage. We divorce our spouses, but in some cases the alienating parent weaves a web of lies and manipulates a child to believe their other parent divorced them as well. A parent’s worst nightmare becomes a reality when the children are brainwashed into erasing half of their identity. As a child who was alienated from my mother, I can feel the pain of these children who manifest these hateful behaviors. Kimber Adams allows us to relate and know as parents who mourn our children that we are not alone.
This book is an eye-opener for parents and professionals to witness the breakdown of parental bonds and revenge. You will find comfort in this emotional roller coaster as a mother finds her way in the world while battling her ex to continue to be what she always was — a mother.

The Parentectomy is not for the faint of heart. Parental Alienation is a real subject where one party chooses to disrupt the lives of all parties involved while going through a divorce. It’s hard to believe that one human being will do everything in their power to distress, intimidate, and alienate the other party; but it happens. What’s equally disturbing is when the children get involved, and through misinformation they sometimes choose sides and alienate one parent. I read this book with both curiosity and amazement. Kimber Adams tells a story that is worth sharing with both men and women who have experienced a difficult, post-divorce transition and then overcame those obstacles and found personal triumph. I recommend The Parentectomy for those Single Parents who can relate to this subject and want to find a good book with a meaningful ending.

In The Parentectomy, Kimber Adams vividly illustrates the heartbreak, frustration and hopelessness that parents experience when their children are manipulated and turned against them in order to fill the other parent's unhealthy emotional needs. The Parentectomy is a novel and Adams is a gifted story-teller; however her lessons are very real. Parents, legal and mental health professionals would be well-served to use Adams' experiences to protect children from becoming one parent's weapon and crutch when a child's only wish is to have normal, loving relationships with both his or her parents.

Breakthrough Parenting has been helping parents in difficult custody situations for more than 25 years. When it came to moderate and severe Parental Alienation cases, it was always a major challenge to get family members, friends and even many licensed family professionals to understand what it was like to be on the receiving end of PAS.
Until this book came out, those who hadn't experienced it first hand could not even imagine what PAS was like. This lack of understanding led to a large number of family tragedies across the U.S., even all over the world.
As professional educators, we were pleased to find the book so clear and easy to read that we can even recommend it to parents without an academic background. We will use this in our own practice as much as possible, and we will also recommend the book to the family professionals for whom we provide training throughout the year. These are primarily clinicians ranging from Marriage & Family Therapists in private practice to Social Workers at government agencies like DSS, DCFS, etc. Our hope is that this book can help them learn to identify Parental Alienation cases more quickly, and recommend effective interventions based on this understanding.
Ms. Adams' writing is very clear and focused. Her storytelling flows, and the key details that are so important to understand in PAS cases are lucidly described in a way that makes the whole situation come alive.
We have helped many thousands of parents in difficult PAS cases, and are glad to have this additional resource to educate those who need to gain a better understanding of PAS and its impact on family dynamics.

I found the book to be highly enjoyable. It presents a good example of the unfolding of an alienation situation from the perspective of a targeted parent. I am sure that other targeted parents will gain comfort and insight from reading the book.

The Parentectomy clearly explains the sudden, destructive nature of Parental Alienation; how family can inadvertently, or in some cases, intentionally, make it worse and how these behaviors are, ultimately, most damaging to the children involved. A riveting novel.
