What Is Parental Alienation?
Parental alienation is a term used to describe a situation in which a child is manipulated or brainwashed into rejecting a parent. This is often done by a parent who wants to gain full or primary custody of the child. The most common cases of parental alienation involve a child being manipulated into rejecting a parent who has been awarded custody by the courts. In many cases, the parent who is being rejected is the custodial parent.
