The online publication and the print book help bring to light a better way to divorce, by demonstrating that divorce without dishonor is possible by listening, collaborating, and exiting a failing relationship with dignity and respect on behalf of children and communities. "Much of what is discussed in Divorce Without Dishonor and Stop Fighting Over the Kids is a consumer awareness piece that demonstrates there are viable alternatives to the adversarial and expensive divorce process," states Lary Holland.
In 2009, Divorce Without Dishonor was referenced on the online and print version of the immensely popular "Divorce for Dummies" book:
Divorce Without Dishonor

You can see from the quality of the postings here that the author, a divorce attorney who went through his own painful divorce, puts a lot of thought and effort into his blog. He not only provides compassionate, practical advice about the major aspects of divorce but writes about such topics as how to overcome the guilt you feel because of your divorce and how to help your child cope with the emotions he or she may feel because of your divorce, tips for moving out of your family's home when you separate, and why some divorced fathers become ghost dads after their divorce --- fathers who pay the child support, but drift out of their children's day to day lives. The blog also highlights interesting divorce-related Web sites to check out, studies to learn from and divorce books to read, and even features quotes that will make you laugh or inspire you as you go through your divorce. (Divorce for Dummies. NJ: Wiley Publishing, 2009. 334-335. Print.)
In essence, inclusion of Divorce Without Dishonor in the Divorce for Dummies print book delivers the information and resources to a larger audience and continues to influence parents and professionals on the issues of positive parenting, collaborative law strategies, and child-centered
divorce practices through written articles, links, and resources.
Last night we released the first in a series of child-centered awareness programs that focus on divorce and trauma that children may experience inside and outside a divorce situation. Here is a copy of the first announcement that went to mediators, psychologists, and a select number of attorneys throughout the United States:
We found ourselves in a position to offer several professionals a free review copy of the book STOP Fighting Over the Kids: Resolving Day-to-Day Custody Conflict in Divorce Situations. The book sells for $29.99 through Amazon.Com. Within moments of many professionals walking into their office and checking their email our phones began to ring with people interested in using it as a resource in their own practices for parents, clients, and other colleagues.
Including the resource above we spread the awareness of the Coloring Away Pain series and have been receiving the feed back for them as well.
The resource books will help parents work with their children through a variety of different trauma types in the form of coloring books to help a child express themselves on complex issues. Tornadoes, Earthquakes,Divorce, Parental Alienation, Floods, Fires, and more.
We are also sharing resource sheets from other counselors, psychologists, and professionals amongst their peers, if you have a resource sheet please email me at laryholland@sbcglobal.net so I can share them with others.

Get Your Justice Live, the number one talk show about reforming our judiciary and making sure our Government is more accountable, has recently added new features, programming, and more. Here is a partial list of some of our updates:
This afternoon at 3:00PM (EDT), Representative Pete Hoekstra (MI) and Senator Jim DeMint (SC) held a joint press conference at Upper Senate Park, at the exact location of last years, DC FAMILY PRESERVATION FESTIVAL, next to the Russell Office Building in Washington, D.C., to announce the introduction of the Parental Rights Amendment in both houses of Congress. If you see clips of news on this, please send them to me as soon as possible at laryholland@sbcglobal.net. Congressman Hoekstra's office will also be releasing video, audio, and pictures through their new site listed below.
It is official, we have a Joint Resolution Number of 42. When speaking to Senators and Representatives you may now refer to the Parental Rights Amendment as House Joint Res. 42 or HJR-42.
We are being joined by an attorney from the Home School Defense Association to discuss the need for the upcoming Federal Parental Rights Amendment. We are also discussing the next course of action to ensure our parental rights are protected and respected by all on GET YOUR JUSTICE LIVE TONIGHT AT 8PM EST.
Home School Legal Defense Association is a nonprofit advocacy organization established to defend and advance the constitutional right of parents to direct the education of their children and to protect family freedoms. Through annual memberships, HSLDA is tens of thousands of families united in service together, providing a strong voice when and where needed.
This is just one of the major organizations that are coming forward to ensure the parental rights amendment gets passed.
We are spearheading one of three campaigns to raise awareness of parental rights on a nationwide scale and are looking for your help. Join us live tonight (February 25, 2009) for the first of several in a series of political discussions and activist awareness campaigns regarding parental rights.
Tune in live on Get Your Justice Live tonight at 8PM EST. Also, please take a moment and visit Children Need Both Parents for more information on the Federal Parental Rights Amendment and its' supporters. We need your help.

Please note that this language is being reintroduced into the 111th (2009-2010) session of the United States Congress. We have a
ton of work to do and our other legislative activities build upon this single issue. After all, parental rights should be respected and
protected by all.
On June 26, 2008, US Congressman Pete Hoekstra introduced H.J.Res.97, the Parental Rights Constitutional Amendment, which would protect parents’ rights to raise their children from unnecessary government intrusion. The amendment would allow for government intervention in instances of child abuse or neglect and would protect parental rights from the overreach of international law.
For those of you that have heard all the rumor mongering whenever I take a break, you have nothing to worry about. First and foremost, Get Your Justice Live will continue forward uninterrupted. You can always check out the official website at http://www.getyourjusticelive.com.
As many of you know, after family court it is very difficult to get back on your feet. The process exhausts most psychologically, emotionally, and of course financially. When you partake in advocacy it is a further drain on your basic resources, but well worth it not monetarily but psychologically.
Over the years I have had many successes at the local, state, and federal level when speaking with those that are decision makers. I haven't always gotten along with all the individual groups, activists, and the multitude of people in-between. Why? Because they are not the ones that can make decisions associated with why the family court system is the way that it is. Some of the more needy folk often times take it personally when you just don't have time to cater to their personal issues. Unfortunate, but it definitely happens.
I will be hosting a live talk show tonight to air out the truth about why some would attempt to hi-jack the number one circulated talk show about the family court system. But suffice it to say, it will be a long and likely drawn out skirmish. Rest assured, I will still be broadcasting and of course available to help people with their situations.
Some bullet points to be aware of. Some individuals are going around with a new myspace page trying to get friends to advertise the old talk cast id: 43507 as being "Get Off The Bench." The title of the myspace page was made to look like mine. The official myspace page is and has always been http://www.myspace.com/getoffthebench AND http://www.myspace.com/getyourjusticelive.
The reason there were these two distinctions is that Get Your Justice Live is the name that I have promoted and owned since my involvement with online broadcasting. But, moreso to protect the brand, when I learned more about some of the people that had vendettas against their family court judges and more about their personal histories. There were definite reasons why I parted ways which were not made public at that time.
I think that my original article title for the next major article is as follows:
Oakland County Friend of the Court Citizens' Advisory Chairman Associates with Convicted Criminal in online broadcasting venture? It will need some cleaning up, but the person that is now claiming to own the show is indeed an unsavory character. He pretty much runs his assets through his child, in an effort to evade IRS tax liens. He has a conviction in connection with "boosting" cars in Florida and was investigated in Oakland County, Michigan in connection with a death of his ex's romantic partner. My involvement stopped when I learned that he was also being investigated for insurance fraud in a "mysterious" disappearance of a boat that he has in one of his children's names. Let's face it, it takes all types I guess. The kicker was when I appeared at the Waterford Police Department in Michigan to make sure that he was not getting child sexual assault charges pressed against him in connection with "another incident."
After I went broke, partly associated with my initial association with the soon to be named individual above I took a short-term loan to keep the phone lines on. So far, I have not been able to contribute back to the payback of that loan to the "newly" proclaimed "host" of the old show. Suffice it to say that both gentlemen are in possession of around $10,000.00 worth of my assets, including computer equipment and more that was dedicated to this movement. No doubt it will be reclaimed as soon as the whereabouts have been learned and a claim and delivery suit is brought.
The issues surrounding my ownership of the show, are easy. Lary Holland is the host and producer of Get Your Justice Live. That will not change, the only thing that will change is that we will continue to expand the show and get the job done. More details will be released as necessary. But in essence, the list of participants goes on beyond just the two people above. They will be flushed out, and we will continue to have the successes that we have always enjoyed in the advocacy movement. All services are free and you can be a part of history.
The only skeletons in my closet are the ones that everyone knows about. I have debt of around $1400.00 left to pay back to two sources and a video camera to return that is located at my house from the last successful event that I helped bring about. Other than that, let the rest of the cannibals come out and I will be happy to answer your questions.
Chrissy Chrzanowski will be introducing at least one speaker and providing an account of her experience as an adult survivor of Parental Alienation. She will be joining the ranks of doctors, lawyers, and other mental health professionals that are well-known in the Parental Alienation Community.
"The Canadian Symposium For Parental Alienation Syndrome (CS - PAS), is an educational conference for Canadian and international mental health professionals, family law attorney's and other professionals dedicated to the prevention and treatment of Parental Alienation and Parental Alienation Syndrome."
This is only one of the many events that are being scheduled over the next year to raise awareness of Parental Alienation, Parental Alienation Syndrome, and the effects of an adversarial family court system over children and families.
Chrissy Chrzanowski, an adult survivor of Parental Alienation, will be providing a first-hand account of her experiences as a child navigating the hurt and manipulation that occurs with parental alienation through childhood and reunification in adulthood.
