Parent-Child Alienation (4 CE)
The healthy development of
children is highly influenced by their relationship with
parents and the quality of the relationship between
parents. Therefore, when parents go through a separation
and a child is deprived of a relationship with one
parent, this can have negative consequences throughout
childhood and into adulthood. Parent alienation occurs
when a child becomes allied with one parent and
alienated from the other parent, usually with no factual
evidence of abuse or neglect. Parental estrangement, on
the other hand, describes the dissolution of a
parent-child relationship as the result of witnessed
violence, abuse, or neglect. There is a great deal of
information and a number of strategies a professional
may utilize in treatment to create a healthy environment
for children and parents in an alienated/estranged
situation.
