I'm very interested in your opinion about the reverse - alienation of the mother (grandmother syndrome ) and daughter (difficulties coping) from grand child after traumatic brain injury - who I believe shows accountability, displays more aggression towards mother and grandmother now in a more calmer environment which is actually the opposite of what happened before . However, the exact opposite is with me. It's never changed. We don't have any aggression and I can dispel aggression easily, so at least me to believe that there's been some issues that are unknown there and they're still there

My grandkids have the worse language ive ever heard .they have eatting disorders they havevproblems in school .they dint have friends .they have night mares .anizity and panic and theres other things they are going through 😊
Misinformation: Alienation Cannot be Distinguished from Estrangement Some writers suggest parental alienation (PA) cannot be effectively distinguished from estrangement For example, Emery said, My experience tells me that some extremely angry parents alienate children from their other parent. My experience also tells me that some self- absorbed parents use accusations of alienation to blame their former partner and excuse their selfish disregard of their children. . . . [However,] I do not have confidence in my own, or anyone else’s, ability to discern truth in divisive divorces . . . and I would be greatly impressed if some investigator could punch a hole in my skepticism with research demonstrating reliable and valid discriminations between accurate and inaccurate accounts of his and her divorce.46 The difference is straightforward: estrangement is a rational rejection of a parent while PA is based on an irrational rejection. For an experienced Mental Health Professional (MHP), the process of differentiating alienation from estrangement is analogous to diagnosing delusional disorder (i.e. distinguishing a rational from an irrational opinion) or a specific phobia (i.e. distinguishing a rational from an irrational fear). For example, one of the DSM-5 criteria for specific phobia is, “The fear or anxiety is out of proportion to the actual danger posed by the specific object or situation and to the sociocultural context.” (Footnote 47) Similarly, the basic premise of PA is that the child’s rejection of the alienated parent is out of proportion to anything that parent has done. To identify the presence of PA, the Five-Factor Model described in this chapter provides a reasonable methodology to follow. Once contact refusal is ruled in and maltreatment by the rejected parent is ruled out, the MHP needs to identify three other factors. These include a history of a previously healthy relationship between the child and rejected parent, the exhibition of abusive behaviors by the preferred parent, and the common symptoms of PA in the child. The degree of PA is informed by the severity of the behaviors in the child more so than the activities of the preferred parent.

Help) Seattle Washington) I'm looking for clinicians and legal professionals that can you help me on my parental alienation case. I have gone through 9 lawyers and 6 mental health clinicians. Over the past 10 years. None of them are willing to look at any of the literature on parental alienation Evan by the ABA or CDC?
19:36 i have hard time understanding this reasoning. So a bunch of bad behaviour, parenting error are good reasons for rejecting? So a parent should be absolutely perfect in every way all the time in order to avoid being rejected? A parent is not allowed to have a bad day? Because having a bad day may lead to the child rightfully rejecting the parent? Adolescents always feel that they are restricted by the unnecessary and incompetent rules of the parent. So no rules should be applied because that leads to rightful rejection. The thing is that the first thing alienators do is to.undermine the authority of.the targeted parent by overempowering the child. Their tactic is to twist and every act of the targeted parent and describe it in a bad way to the child. Who gets to decide what's bad parenting?
It would be very beneficial if Perth had people like yourselves!! Such a shame how this is not properly recognised by many or worse when it’s known but they still choose to turn a blind eye?? If a child is being psychically or sexually abused we are told to not turn a blind eye and to report that! But so so so sad when it’s a child being psychologically abused… it’s like many rub their hands together and all they can think is… How much can I make from this????🤮🤢 No care that families and children’s lives especially are being destroyed or even worse ended, due to not being able to comprehend why??? No child or deserving parent deserves such pain! Thank you for time and all the knowledge shared 😊 keep up the great work 🙏🏽🥰
I've been alienated from my 16yr old twin sons for 13yrs. They just found out I existed last year. Now I'm fighting for the right to just have them in my life again. I have trial in October for termination of my parental rights. There is SO much information here....thank you. I'm very proactive in my case and educating myself over this past year. I'm confident that I will see them again.
If the aluenating parent has narcissistic personality disorder, they donot change. They will sabotage their case and their relationship with their children and hurt themselves just to hurt the target parent. These people always need supervised visitation. What are the statistics on these people "getting better"? I appreciate the work Dr. Childress has done and his analysis for diagnosis involves pathogenic parentibg and enmeshment.
Excellent webinar. A lot of information that is the minimum that you need to deal with PA in your family. Thank you to the speakers ❤
Great talk! Indeed early intervention is needed! But seems like IF the MHP sees the alienation and even perhaps goes so far was to give CAPRD diagnosis, they are CLUELESS about what to do. They do not understand that protective orders or court intervention is absolutely necessary.
I'm so THRILLED TO BE SEEING THIS! Oh, thank you!
excellent presentation, thank you so much, we will get there 🙏

Very interesting. Important topic.
I've been alienated from my 16yr old twin sons for 13yrs. They just found out I existed last year. Now I'm fighting for the right to just have them in my life again. I have trial in October for termination of my parental rights. There is SO much information here....thank you. I'm very proactive in my case and educating myself over this past year. I'm confident that I will see them again.
How can I get the checklist of 17 behaviors and 8 presentations???
If the aluenating parent has narcissistic personality disorder, they donot change. They will sabotage their case and their relationship with their children and hurt themselves just to hurt the target parent. These people always need supervised visitation. What are the statistics on these people "getting better"?
I appreciate the work Dr. Childress has done and his analysis for diagnosis involves pathogenic parentibg and enmeshment.
Brilliant information!
Don’t all you lawyers and judges profit from all these cases? Why would you pretend to care about families when you’re profiting from these cases?
