What is Parental Alienation?

Parental alienation takes many forms but can include when a parent keeps the other from seeing the child or tells the child such things as, “your parent hates you” or “your parent doesn’t want to spend time with you”. Any number of verbal and non-verbal actions can cause a child to be alienated from the other parent. This brainwashing can often be discovered by the efforts of an attorney. If you suspect parental alienation is happening, call an experienced family law attorney to discuss and analyze your options.
