Kids & Family
Parental Alienation is defined as "something which primarily occurs during a high-conflict divorce in which the child identifies strongly with one parent, usually the custodial parent. The other parent is hated and rejected without any justifiable reason, such as abuse." (Source: WebMD). If you have ever found yourself asking any of these questions... this episode is for you; why does my stepkid dislike me so much? what is their parent actually saying about me that's untrue? or why does it seem like my stepkid is incapable of forming their own opinion?
We dig into the depths of what parental alienation actually is and then highlight many reasons why scenarios like this might cause a stepmom to feel as though she is constantly on the defense.
