The Steps To Overcoming Parental Alienation

By Gary Bailey


Parental alienation can be especially tough on a child. It can happen when they are separated from their mom or dad due to divorce or separation. It may be because of abuse. They get it into their mind that they have a lot of negative feelings for the parent. Overcoming parental alienation, is indeed possible.

This usually happens at the time of a divorce or a separation. The little one will have to choose with whom they want to spend their time with. There is a custody battle. The parent will alienate the youngster.

Kids will get in the middle between the parents. One parent will manipulate the other and force them away from the youngster. They will also manipulate the child into thinking that the other parent is not a good person in their eyes. The child will begin to reject them. The parent who is rejected becomes a target.

It can be a problem when social services get involved because they don't believe in helping out and getting emotionally involved. They will realize that the parent has a problem, but they won't usually put this down to the kids and look at the conflict. It can also be very subtle, but it will build up slowly.

A play therapist will get a better idea of what is happening in the life of a child. They have been trained to analyse what is happening by the emotions that they display. This happens when they are involved in imaginary play or when they begin to play with toys. They may display signs of anger or frustration as well as sadness.

There are specific programs that have been designed for this purpose. Parents will work with the child. However, it can be difficult at first, especially when the alienation is severe. Kids will refuse to communicate and they will be resistant to therapy. It can take some time until things begin to move along, depending on the situation.

Parentification can also become a feature. This will happen when the child begins to take care of the parent. It can obviously do the child a lot of damage as well, and is a form of abuse. On the other hand, the child will become separated from a parent who feels he or she has to withdraw because they are being abused by the other parent in front of the child.

Children will begin to reject to hate you when he or she begin to believe the other parent. However, one should not give up on the relationship. Sometimes, they are merely trying to test you and to make sure that you still will try and go to the trouble of sending them an email on their birthday. The time you spend during these years is critical because when the youngster grows up, he or she will understand more about what was going on and you will begin to reconnect.
