QuickLinks: About the Title | Chapter Titles | Credits

This professionally-produced DVD is designed to help children and teenagers see family problems from another perspective and avoid taking sides with one parent against the other. The program helps children empathize with the suffering of rejected parents and understand their favored parent's perspective, and motivates children to restore positive relationships.

Parents will find valuable tips for helping their children adjust better when parents live apart from each other. The 83-minute DVD is suitable for viewing by parents and children together or separately. It is also a valuable tool for therapists and counselors working with families in which children have, or are in danger of developing, a ruptured relationship with a parent.

About the Title

For 76 years Pluto was part of our family of planets. Then, one day in 2006, astronomers decided that Pluto was not worthy of being considered a planet. The word "plutoed" has come to mean "to be demoted or devalued."

I thought Pluto was an apt symbol for alienated parents who have been demoted by their children. It also symbolizes the emotional and physical distance between alienated children and the family they reject. For children who have cast a parent out of their lives, or are thinking about doing so, or one of their parents thinks it would be okay to reject the other parent, this program gives children another, healthier, perspective. Welcome Back, Pluto can help children recover, and keep, the family they deserve.
