Description
An acclaimed spokesperson for equality at the helm of And Baby, a pioneer magazine, radio show, and TV series on alternative parenting, Michelle Darné found herself at once callously erased from the lives of her children and silenced by the law.
Parent Deleted is a gripping tale of one non-biological, lesbian mother’s fight for her children—an intimate, infuriating, and infectious story of perseverance, sacrifice, and hope in the face of debilitating adversity. And it is a courageous, disturbing, and necessary exposé of a likely emergent social justice frontier: the rights of all children to be with their parents, whether they are biologically linked, straight, gay, prepared or knocked up, perfect spouses or fallible ones.

Advance Praise
“Michelle’s enthralling and heartbreaking story presents the raw truth
of what it is like to be the target of another parent’s alienating
behaviors. Her experience reflects that of millions of other parents who
are blamed for what is happening to them, and for whom there is no
relief. It takes great courage to share such a story, and Michelle Darné
is to be commended for her courage to do so.” ―Jennifer J. Harman, PhD,
Associate Professor of Psychology at Colorado State University and
author of Parents Acting Badly: How Societies and Institutions Promote the Alienation of Children from their Loving Families
