Challenging Parental Alienation

The editors and chapter authors argue against the unquestioning use of “parental alienation” concepts in child custody conflicts. As such, this is the first book to support arguments against court orders that would prohibit contact with a child and force the child into potentially harmful parental alienation treatment. Of interest to any professional who may encounter parental alienation: mental health professionals, children’s services workers, lawyers, judges, domestic relations and child protection court staff as well as Children’s Advocacy Center interviewers. Parents and professionals involved in parental alienation cases can find in this book the materials they need to support arguments against court orders that would prohibit contact with a child and force the child into potentially harmful parental alienation treatment. No other book provides this help, even at this time when the use of parental alienation concepts is increasing.
