One of the most heartbreaking occurences when two adults divorce, with children are involved, is when one parent alienates the child(ren) from the other parent. More common than we would like to think, this Parent Alientation Syndrome creates a dynamic between parents and children that can be ultimately very destructive.
Dr. Amy Baker, a nationally recognized expert in parent child relationships, especially children of divorce, parental alienation syndrome, and emotional abuse of children, discusses this topic in her book, "Adult children of parent alienation syndrome." Based on in-depth interviews of over 40 individuals, Dr. Baker's book answers the question, "What are the long-term effects of this type of alienation?"
Dr. Baker has graciously offered to appear on the radio program today, and will also be featured in an upcoming podcast of the program. Don't miss the show:
