PA Day - Batman & Batgirl in action! ------------------------------------- From: Rob Robinson <burnabybatman@shaw.ca> Greetings all from Vancouver BC. As many of you are aware April 25 each year marks Parental Alienation Awareness, an all to common occurrence in the event of separation and divorce. For more information on this very important issue please visit http://www.paawarenessday.org/ Here in the lower mainland of BC this day, Kevin Christiaens, Hal Legere and myself attended the event in Langley BC hosted by Patricia Lessard, thank you Patricia for your hospitality. On this Day, April 25, 2009, Parental Alienation Awareness Day, Bat Girl (Paulette MacDonald) and the Burnaby Batman (Rob Robinson) go to great heights to raise awareness to Parental Alienation. Happy Anniversary Paulette on your monumental climb for the kids. Aliston Bat Girl Scales Water Tower - http://www.f4jcanada.com/OntarioPages/Ontario_Bat_Girl_Cookstown_Action.html Fathers 4 Justice Canada - April 25/09 - This morning before the sun arose; Alliston Bat Girl scaled the Cookstown Outlet Mall Water Tower, at Hwy 400 and Hwy 89 in protest. Her objective was to draw attention to Parental Alienation Awareness Day, which is on April 25th. From the front of the landmark water tower (Facing both Hwy's) she unfurled a giant banner which read, April 25th, 2009 - Parental Alienation Awareness Day - Love Is For Everyone! Bat Girl remained upon the landmark structure for 7 hours before police arrived on the scene. "One of my most memorable moments during this action was; once I secured the banner at the top and went down a level to secure the bottom of the banner and the winds were so strong,blowing the banner away from me and I couldn't access the rope to secure it. I began to pray and asked God to "Will" the rope to me,within seconds the rope was in my hands! That was truly inspirational! The other most memorable moment was speaking with Burnaby Batman while he was perched upon the Johnson Street Bridge in Victoria BC. That was way, too cool!", said Bat Girl. On This Day April 25/09 - Victoria BC - Burnaby Batman scales bridge to raise awareness - http://www.f4jcanada.com/BCPages/Burnaby_Batman_Victoria_Bridge_Action_2009.html Fathers 4 Justice Canada - April 25/09 - Parental Alienation Awareness Day - Victoria BC - Burnaby Batman Bridge Action - This morning before the sun arose the Burnaby Batman with the help of his trusted comrades scaled the Johnson street bridge in Victoria BC in protest. Our objective was to draw attention to parental alienation and to present our position on the current political parties running in the upcoming BC election on May 12/09. BEST WISHES ALL - IT IS IN OUR ACTIONS WE ARE DEFINED. 2. Say YES to NOPE - a group for parental equality! -------------------------------------------------- If you are looking for a group that supports actual EQUALITY between parents I can recommend the folks who founded NOPE (The National Organization for Parental Equality). http://www.nopeohio.org/ and http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=475803505300 3. Mother's Day Rally (May 7th) - cancelled with humility ---------------------------------------------------------- We were trying to get some Moms & Dads, and maybe a Superhero in attendance for a Mother's Day Rally in Lyons, NY. Sorry, I failed on all counts and the event is cancelled. Perhaps a lesson in humility for two reasons: 1. I'm a firm believer real change is within our grasp. I have no delusions about my effectiveness (or lack thereof!) in both my public actions and also in trying to more parents involved in the effort. http://www.AKidsRight.Org/family_rights I don't have any doubt NonViolent Action by parents will be required before real change takes place (http://www.AKidsRight.Og/civil.htm), but I'm humbled by my poor leadership and timidity in my actions. So easy to have an excuse not to do something.... 2. You see so much anger expressed in mailing lists, web blogs, email, etc.... Maybe we all need to ask ourselves, "When was the last time I participated in a Family Rights rally?" It was an inconvenience, but I went - because it was important. Hopefully we become a little more understanding of the politicians that don't seem as responsive as we like (they have a lot of other demands on their time also). How many of you have even bothered to call your Member of Congress, or your State Legislature, and go in and talk to their staff about reform? Want a guide? http://www.AKidsRight.Org/legislative.htm Let's be for a FIRM statement of our rights as parents & children, the "Declaration of Family Rights" (now at 330 signatures!) http://www.ThePetitionSite.com/3/the-declaration-of-family-rights Best regards! -- John Murtari _______________________________________________________ Coordinator AKidsRight.Org jmurtari@AKidsRight.Org Kid's Right to BOTH parents (315) 944-0999(x-211) http://www.AKidsRight.Org/ ========================================= http://www.AKidsRight.Org/ A Kid's Right to Both Parents! --- Newsletter mailing list Newsletter@kids-right.org http://kids-right.org/mailman/listinfo/newsletter
