Michelle Darné has been a prominent figure in the fashion, advertising, marketing, publishing, and entertainment industries for more than thirty years. In 2000, she bet on a market nobody believed existed when she decided to publish And Baby Magazine: Redefining Modern Parenting which became the pioneer national magazine to focus on alternative parenting. Within a few years, And Baby became a radio show with 7 million listeners, and then a TV series followed by 35 million homes through Time Warner cable. In 2005, National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC) named Darné the inaugural Entrepreneur of the Year. She is currently the CEO and Executive Producer of Patina Entertainment, a digital media company providing quality content for underserved niche markets. To amplify the impact she aims to have through Parent Deleted, she also recently joined the board of Erasing Family, a documentary on family bond obstruction, and founded Simply Parent, a non-profit that is dedicated to forging a society where good parenting is protected in all its diverse genesis, forms, and colors.

“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 "Parent Deleted is a MUST read for all
parents, everywhere. It tragically exemplifies how parents can be
alienated from their children. This powerful story reminds us why
we must protect our families, even if from ourselves, and
illustrates—with disarming humility—what we can and must avoid at
all costs. Children need access to all of their loving parents and
extended families! Michelle Darne's book is also an olive branch to
the millions of children who have been severed from their parents.
Parent Deleted will spark unexpected, invaluable conversations and
change how we plan our families.”
—Dr. Terri Orbuch (PhD), The Love Doctor®, Professor at Oakland
University, and author of 5 Simple Steps to Take Your Marriage From
Good to Great “An uplifting message to mistreated and alienated
parents, and a must-read for all seeking to end institutionally
endorsed parental alienation.”
—William Bernet, M.D., Professor Emeritus, Department of
Psychiatry, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, and author of

Professionals (Behavioral Science and Law) and co-author of
