Many of us going through ‘parental alienation’ do not have the opportunity to show kindness or let our children know we love them. In this case, the boundaries are about self-preservation and not letting the sadness of the situation overwhelm us. It’s about drawing a line and saying ‘enough!’ We can keep knocking at a door, but unless it opens, we can die waiting or we can get on with our lives. That’s not to say we’ve given up trying, or that our door is closed. Our hearts, our doors are open. But we are getting on with being happy, and we are practising self-love. This is not selfishness. It’s not quitting. It is essential.
Each step towards nurturing your well-being and asserting healthy boundaries is a testament to resilience and self-love amidst unimaginable pain. For those cut off from their children, boundaries may involve not subjecting yourself to mistreatment or allowing your worth to be defined by your alienated child’s actions. While the absence of contact with alienated children may limit direct opportunities to demonstrate kindness, you can still extend compassion to yourself. Putting up boundaries becomes an act of self-preservation, a means of safeguarding your emotional well-being in the face of adversity. By removing yourself from situations that trigger negative feelings, you can reclaim a sense of power and choice.
