"For the Love of My Boys: A Mother's Story of Parent Alienation and Abuse" by Sherri-Lee James
?For the Love of My Boys: A Mother?s Story of Parent Alienation? (ISBN 1468198556) by Sherri-Lee James tells the painful story of divorce and separation from her two sons and the strained relationship the author had with them as a result of her ex-husband. Divorce can have negative consequences on children and how they deal with future relationships, and James shows how this combined with a manipulative father led to her sons? absence from her life for nearly 10 years.
The memoir follows James? life from ages 15 to 40 and particularly her abusive marriage, the divorce and her sons? roles in everything. Her ex-husband and father of her children later in life turned to drugs as well as alcohol and lived a life of desperate destitution. Bouncing from job to job, more frequently unemployed, being close to homeless more than once and spending time in a rehabilitation facility and then jail, he dragged his children down with him. After committing suicide the boys were left orphans and nearly homeless. James chose to write a book on the topic of parent alienation as a result of people she has met wondering why she was never in her sons? lives. ?For the Love of My Boys? will let them know the real story of what went on behind the scenes of their traumatic childhood and her unhealthy codependent relationship with her ex-husband.
James hopes her story will show parents going through a similar situation that they aren?t alone. She believes that the effects of divorce can be devastating, and after her experiences and a losing a lifetime of experiences seeing her children grow up she strongly expresses that children shouldn?t be caught in the middle of a couple?s downfall. The story tells of how her children have struggled as a result of growing up without a mother: one of her boys seems to be unfortunately following in his father?s footsteps while the other has faced many struggles in life. Some of his struggles: falsely being accused of robbing banks; another being car jacked as a result of his father?s business dealings.? Her children have lived on the edge of the dark side. Whether or not they will continue there is still unknown.
?I am hoping to reach out to couples that are going through divorce,? James says. ?I would like them to read my book and see the damage that can occur when children are used as pawns in a divorce and custody hearings.?
?For the Love of My Boys: A Mother?s Story of Parent Alienation? is available for sale online at Amazon.com and other channels.
