Signs Of Parental Alienation
Children are victimized when one parent is alienated. Children are very impressionable at any age, especially in family matters. They can be easily confused and manipulated into siding with one parent over the other. They might feel that they are helping or protecting one parent, but they don’t realize that they are alienating the other parent unduly. That is why parental alienation is such a big problem.
If you notice any of the following signs of alienation, contact our law firm right away:
- Sudden argumentative nature or change in a child’s mood
- A child can’t explain reasons for anger toward a parent
- A child’s sudden unwillingness to talk
- Hearing from your child something about your relationship with the other parent that you thought was confidential
- Controlled communication between your child and the other parent
- Appearance of the other parent trying to shield a child from you
- Being accused of lying by your child
Our attorneys can help you translate these signs and recognize them for what they are. We can help you gather evidence and take decisive legal action to correct the situation now.
