Although my book is primarily written for my children, I also wanted to share my message with others. In particular, I recommend it to any father who has lost contact with his children due to a similar situation. My hope is that this book will also emphasize to parents in general how dramatically their actions can affect their children's lives. Above all, I sincerely hope that my children are able to see into my heart and understand my great love for them. The love that I have for my children is unique because of my childhood, which is described in the book. I was willing to suffer through years of a bad marriage in the United States for the sole purpose of keeping my family together. The book describes my life experiences in a country where I had no one to turn to when I desperately needed help. Most of the book was written with a broken heart and sadness hovering over me. I want my children to know how traumatized I still am from being separated from them for all these years. Dror Rofe' was born in Israel. In 1976, at the age of 23, he moved to the United States.

When her husband refused to return their children, and the Australian government and Lebanese justice system couldn't help, Sally Faulkner flew across the world with a television news crew to try to bring them home herself. This is her story. This is for Lahela and Noah. All for My Children is Sally Faulkner's unforgettable true story, showing how one Australian mother's life fractured in the moment she kissed her kids goodbye. This is a book Sally had to write, because it is the only way her children Lahela and Noah will know she never stopped trying to bring them home. In May 2015, Sally hugged her children as they left Australia for a two-week holiday to Beirut with their father, Ali Elamine. Though separated, custody of two-year-old Noah and four-year-old Lahela had not been an issue. The kids lived with Sally in Brisbane and their dad often visited from his home in Lebanon. To Sally, everything seemed fine. Twenty-four hours after that farewell, Ali said, 'The kids aren't coming back.' It was every parent's nightmare . . . and it was only going to get worse. After ten months without any contact with her children, missing birthdays and her daughter's first day at school, Sally had exhausted every avenue she could - pleading with Ali, using the courts, calling government departments and contacting the media. Waking in a Beirut prison cell handcuffed to a 60 Minutes television reporter, Sally couldn't help asking herself . . . how did I get here? Looking back, 21-year-old Sally had scored her dream life as an Emirates flight attendant. She was dazzled by a world far removed from the suburbs of Brisbane. Then, she met Ali, a charismatic charmer with a Californian accent, who she thought was the perfect man, married him and had the children she'd always hoped for. But her dream life didn't last.

Separation is devastating for any couple, especially when children are involved. Most countries give child custody to the primary parent, making it hard for the other parent to see their kids. The author explores the complex issue of forced parental alienation in this thought-provoking book. The book carefully examines this heart-breaking situation to provide insights and practical strategies to help parents reconnect with their children.
