Parental alienation is a multilevel attack on alienated parents. The alienators destroy the sacred relationship between the children and the alienated parents while using false allegations to destroy the alienated parents’ reputation in society and in court. This has an immediate impact on the alienated parents’ emotional health, leaving the alienated parents feeling lost, helpless, angry, fearful, broken, and depressed. Like a domino effect, the immediate damage caused by parental alienation transpires into further damages in other aspects of the alienated parents’ lives, including their relationships with others, their career prospects, and their physical health. While their life and career are affected, they are also forced to fight long, prohibitively expensive, and unreasonable battles in court, draining them financially. The alienated parent’s world is crumbling down, just as the alienator(s) hope.
The consequences of parental alienation on the rejected parents’ lives are horrific, yet there is such a lack of public awareness on the topic. There are resources for virtually all types of marginalized groups out there: domestic violence hotline, homeless shelters,… yet there is no public resources and support for alienated parents. Unfortunately, this means that the alienated parents are to fend for themselves when they are most vulnerable.
We believe that fighting parental alienation has 5 pillars:
- Reset your mind,
- Rebuild your relationship(s) with your child(ren),
- Defend your legal rights,
- Set boundaries with the alienator(s), and
- Live your best life.
You may not be able to fight and win all five, but these five areas are somewhat intertwined and need your attention.
