For me , they were distant , marriage then children brought out the primal energy and the competition, drama , control were too unhealthy to continue .
One of the most intractable problems that can lead to estrangement: sons-in-law and daughters-in-law.
The sequence above is surprisingly common in my experience, which is why I tackle it in my book, Rules of Estrangement, by asking questions like…
👉 Why does the adult child sometimes cut everyone off?
👉 What’s in it for him or her to estrange?
👉 Is there any hope for the son-in-law or daughter-in-law—can they be changed?
👉 How should a parent understand them?

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse.
As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my
desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven.
I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are
denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child.
I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power..
I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination..
Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative".
It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
