Charlie McCready – Alienating Parents

Alienating parents typically refuse to be accountable or engage in self-reflection. Instead, they project blame onto others, particularly the ‘target’ parent, as well as anyone else who triggers their unhealed trauma. Self-reflection can be deeply uncomfortable. We all tend to bury stuff we can’t deal with at the time.

Bruce Lipton, a renowned cellular biologist and author, has shed light on the impact of early programming on our subconscious minds. According to Lipton, approximately 70% of our subconscious programming consists of negative or disempowering beliefs and patterns, many of which are acquired before we’re 7 years old. This programming, often rooted in transgenerational trauma, shapes our perceptions and behaviours throughout life. Shocking, isn’t it? But whatever it is we’ve picked up – inherited programming that’s not even true about ourselves, but merely other people’s beliefs and prejudices or ‘issues’ passed down to us – we need to heal from so that we also don’t want to download any that onto our children.

Therefore, moments of personal struggle, such as during a high-conflict divorce, present an opportunity for deep introspection and growth. It is like work. It’s not a walk in the park. But if we can do that deep dive and find out what it was that led us into an abusive relationship, or why we didn’t put up better boundaries, it can help us understand/accept where we are now. Acceptance is not easy to achieve, but it’s a great step towards healing and creating healthier, happier, more fulfilling lives, even despite adversities.

Parental Alienation- More than a phase – Charlie McCready

The people who say ‘it’s just a phase’, ‘enjoy your freedom’ and things like this probably mean well but totally misunderstand the pain and trauma of parental alienation, the not knowing when/if we’ll see our children again. It’s not empty nest syndrome, either. Nor is it estrangement when a child has a justified reason for not wanting to see a parent. Alienation is unjustified, coerced, and psychological abuse from a parent with an attachment disorder, narcissism, and/or a vengeance campaign against a loved/loving parent. I’ve taken inspiration from Simone de Beauvoir’s quote: ‘“Her wings are cut, and then she is blamed for not knowing how to fly.” Our children have their wings clipped, certainly. It is covert abuse, and so many people don’t get it. Even people who really should get it. Others suffering from alienation as a knock-on effect, such as grandparents, understand it (though not all), but friends and others say these things to us from a place of kindness but ignorance. They don’t mean to hurt us more with their lack of understanding. May they never know how far off the mark they are.

Sharon Stone – Family Court – Charlie McCready

Sharon Stone said during an interview with Bruce Bozzi on his Table for Two podcast that she believes she lost custody of her son because of a ‘kind of abuse by the (family court) system.’ And, in a Saturday Times article, Jan 2024, Sharon Stone talked about how, in 2008, she lost custody of her son, Roan, then 8, whom she shares with Bronstein, after a four-year custody battle following their divorce. She said, ‘… I had envy. Envy of the way they manipulated the court system. And envy is a deeper thing than jealousy. It’s dangerous. It’s in your bones …’ She sees it as the worst period of her life. ‘I was trying to recover from a nine-day brain bleed … and then someone takes your kid … and then they continued by trying to take my reputation ….’ The judge asked her young son, ‘Do you know your mother makes sex movies?’ She says of that horrific experience: ‘And that’s when I understood that the only thing that I could do was hold steady, (with) no response of retaliation.’⁠

⁠

I often write about this non-reactive response in posts. It’s difficult because the provocation is immense, the injustice and grief almost unbearable. But the problem is that if we react negatively (in anger or in-kind), the focus is directed to that rather than the root cause of the problem. The alienating parent then sits back and says, ‘See!’ ⁠

⁠

I hope it’s true her son has now changed his name from Roan Bronstein to Roan Joseph Bronstein Stone. Thanks to Sharon Stone for sharing her story and spreading awareness about spurious, devastating family court rulings.⁠
