Distraught dads, moms
and grandparents have sent to me many emails describing how their formerly good relationship
with their child was ruined by an alienating parent. I have created this page to aid
parents and children suffering from parental alienation, and hope that it provides a good
starting point for those who need information about parental alienation.
Each case of parental
alienation is complex and unique. This page does not offer legal advice and is not
a substitute for advice from a professional who is familiar with parental alienation and who
can provide insight into your specific case.
If you think you are in a parental
alienation situation, it is often helpful to secure a consultation with a mental health
professional familiar with parental alienation. That professional may be able to
assist you and suggest strategies to improve your relationship with your children. You
may also consult with a lawyer who is knowledgeable about parental alienation.
Sometimes (believe it or not!) there is something that a lawyer can do to help improve the
situation. In any event, knowledge is power and you should take proactive steps to
educate yourself, and find out what options might be available to you.
Since I first posted the predecessor of this
page, parental alienation has been getting more and more attention from the courts.
I will be updating links and cases periodically, as the parental alienation
jurisprudence develops.
