161. Child Slavery In Haiti - Restaveks There are over 300,000 slave children throughout Haiti suffering abuse unheard of in the civilized world. child slaves as young as 3, are sexually, mentally, physically abused up to and including death. http://quicksitemaker.com/members/immunenation/restavek.html

RESTAVEKS: CHILD SLAVES FACES OF SLAVERY Haiti's Forgotten Children Thousands of children are living in slavery in Haiti - taken from their families in the rural villages or given up by desperately poor parents for the promise of a better life in cities like Port-au-Prince, Jacmel or Les Cayes. The promise is rarely kept. Instead, the children, some as young as 3 years old, are whipped and abused, forced to fetch water, mop floors, wash dishes, care for babies not much younger than they are. They are forbidden to eat at the table and are forced to sleep on concrete or dirt floors. They rarely get any schooling. A United Nations study in 1998 estimated there are 300,000 such children - known as restaveks, a Creole word meaning "stay with". The restavek phenomena, like slavery is a system that stresses ownership of the person versus the use of cheap or underpaid labor. The reason that so many of these children can be mistreated and often times beaten to death without any intervention from authorities or other adults is found in the reality that they are seen more as property than child laborers. The life of a restavek is one that is comprised of continual day-to-day menial chores where they must serve everyone around them, and refer to them as monsieur or madame (sir or mam), even to those younger than themselves. They are strictly forbidden to speak unless spoken to. They are not allowed to display any emotions without fear of reprisal, or even voice any opinions about their daily needs. They are rarely provided with a chance for an education, an if so, they are relegated to second rate schools where they may or may not graduate based on the whim of the families who own them.

Department of child Psychiatry, College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, New York, New York, USA. http://www.fact.on.ca/Info/pas/gardnr99.htm

The American Journal of Family Therapy. Vol. 27, No. 2, p 97-107 (April-June 1999) DIFFERENTIATING BETWEEN PARENTAL ALIENATION SYNDROME AND BONA FIDE ABUSE-NEGLECT RICHARD A. GARDNER Department of Child Psychiatry, College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, New York, New York, USA In recent years, with increasing familiarity and recognition of parental alienation syndrome (PAS), 1 parent has accused the other parent of inducing PAS in the children. In response, the responding parent accuses the other parent 4 abusing and neglecting the children. In short, the children's alienation is considered by 1 parent to be the result of PAS indoctrinations and the other to be the result of bona fide abuse-neglect. The purpose of this article is to provide criteria for differentiating between these 2 situations, a differentiation that is obviously crucial if courts are to deal properly with children exposed to and embroiled in these 2 very different situations. Parental alienation syndrome (PAS, Gardner, ) is a disorder that arises almost exclusively in the context of child-custody disputes. In this disorder, one parent (the alienator, the alienating parent, the PAS-inducing parent) induces a program of denigration against the other parent (the alienated parent, the victim, the denigrated parent). However, this is not simply a matter of "brainwashing" or "programming" in that the children contribute their own elements into the campaign of denigration. It is this combination of factors that justifiably warrants the designation

These sexual behaviors are intended to erotically arouse the older person, generally without consideration for the reactions or choices of the child and without consideration for the effects of the behavior upon the child. Behaviors that are sexually abusive often involve bodily contact, such as in the case of sexual kissing, touching, fondling of genitals, and oral, anal, or vaginal intercourse. However, behaviors may be sexually abusive even if they don't involve contact, such as in the case of genital exposure ("flashing"), verbal pressure for sex, and sexual exploitation for purposes of prostitution or pornography. Who are the perpetrators of child sexual abuse?

173. Comment On "The Universality Of Incest" By Andrew Vachss (The Journal Of Psychoh Article written by child protection consultant and attorney, Andrew Vachss, provides an operational definition of incest and what can be done to protect children in incest abuse cases. http://www.vachss.com/av_dispatches/disp_9119_a.html

Comment on "The Universality of Incest" by Andrew Vachss Originally published in The Journal of Psychohistory , Vol. 19, pg. 219, 200 [1991] In my view, the significant contribution of The Universality of Incest is its blunt recognition of evil. I realize "evil" is not a psychoanalytic term, and I don't suppose even the periodic sea changes undergone by the various DSM editions will ever acknowledge its existence. However, as a combat practitioner of many years standing, (from USPHS investigator in sexually-transmitted diseases, to ghetto caseworker, to the Biafran war, to directing a re-entry center for ex-convicts and a maximum security institution for "aggressive-violent" youth ... and, finally, to a law practice which is limited to representation of children and youth), I have seen evil closely (and often) enough to venture an operational definition: evil is choice. By documenting that incest is a product of the human (as opposed to cultural) condition, deMause gives cold comfort to its many apologists. The incest statutes do not mention "force," which would compel a harsher judgment of the perpetrator. Yet a child's ability to resist sexual intrusion by an all-powerful family member is virtually non-existent. Unless and until juries are permitted to understand that incest is nothing less than rape-by-extortion, it will be perceived as a "mental health" issue. And its victims, especially teenagers, will be perceived as complicitous.

Family Advocate, Winter, 1993 When You Suspect the Worst Bad-faith relocation, fabricated child sexual abuse, and parental alienation Carol Holstein Sanders You have analyzed a father's case for custody and decided to take the case. Your preliminary investigation shows that the father is an emotionally and financially stable individual. He was more involved than the mother in the care of the children before the separation. You have given him your best advice about measures he should take to strengthen the case during the pendency of the action, but now you are faced with one of three scenarios: You receive a frantic call from your client who has discovered that the mother has immediate plans to move to another state with the child. The mother has refused to provide information about why and where she will move. You receive a call from the local protective services agency advising you that the mother has filed a report accusing the father of child sexual abuse. Your client calls to report that the child is suddenly being disrespectful and is making derogatory remarks to him. The remarks are inaccurate and pertain to matters the child could have heard only from the mother. Your routine custody case has just become every family lawyer's nightmare! You must understand the dynamics of these scenarios and the best strategies to turn them to your advantage. Delay will be the death knell of your case.
