Help that too often hurts in Parental Alienation/ Child Psychological Abuse

Well-intentioned professionals, therapists, legal experts, friends and family members, can inadvertently worsen the situation. This occurs when they do not understand parental alienation. They often, not without reason, prioritise the child’s perspective, not taking enough into account the covert, coercive, harmful influence of an alienating parent, almost indoctrinating this child. The child may seem highly passionate and plausible. They may express confusion, anger, fear, but not so much of the manipulation. By validating the child’s apparent “choices,” people who could otherwise be more supportive of all the victims of alienation (not just the child) often overlook the deeper causes behind the rejection of a previously cherished and caring parent.
