My name is Simon Cobb and I am the founder of PAPA (People Against Parental Alienation). What brought me to begin this journey is probably a story very similar to your own or someone you know. Parental Alienation is a heartbreaking and complex issue that affects countless families. As a father, I experienced firsthand the pain and frustration of being unjustly separated from my child. This personal battle ignited my passion for change and led me to establish PAPA in 2016.
I am fortunate to now have an equal parenting arrangement with my son, a stability achieved through persistent effort and unwavering support. However, I am acutely aware that many parents are not as fortunate. This realization fuels my commitment to continue fighting for those of you who are still struggling within the family court system. PAPA is not just my voice; it represents the voices of thousands—millions—of parents and children affected by parental alienation.
Over the years, PAPA has been featured in numerous publications, and I have appeared on various radio stations to shed light on the issues surrounding child custody and parental alienation. We have now grown to the point where we are able to offer a free forum and resource center, as well as a Facebook support group. We firmly believe that parents should not have to pay to see their children, so everything we offer is on a goodwill basis. You will never be charged for any support from anyone associated with PAPA.
Our success is made possible by a strong team of dedicated volunteers who give their time and expertise to offer advice, support, and maintain our safe spaces. Together, we strive to make a difference in the lives of families, advocating for equal parenting and fair treatment in family courts. PAPA stands as a beacon of hope and support for those navigating the challenges of parental alienation.
