Parental Alienation is Psychological Child Abuse

Parental alienation is a psychological form of child abuse, wherein one parent weaponizes a child to reject the other parent for whatever nefarious purpose that the alienating parent has in order to punish, eradicate or completely remove a parent from that child’s life. - Virginia E. Griffin, Esq.

“A mental condition in which a child—usually one whose parents are engaged in a high-conflict separation or divorce—allies himself or herself strongly with an alienating parent and rejects a relationship with the ‘target’ parent without legitimate justification.”
