Is Your Ex Brainwashing Your Kid?
A mental disorder not yet widely recognized by the medical community is at the center of a debate among family law attorneys and mental health professionals alike. This disorder, known as "parental alienation syndrome" sometimes called "hostile aggressive parenting", involves the alleged brainwashing of a child by one parent in order to turn the child against the other parent. When a child succumbs to the negative influences of one parent, he or she will often see the other parent as an enemy or a source of fear. This situation commonly occurs in hotly contested custody battles.
Do they have a new pill for this diorder? I think we do ourselves an injustice by using their terminology. We know there is a social problem with people who meddle in the affairs of families without just cause but we don't refer to this very serious social disease as "Fastbuckleigh Disorder" or "Silly Ass Syndrome". If we refuse to use their terminology, constantly ask them to define their terms and use their definition rather than their words they will become confused because they can't think for themselves. After a few weeks they will develope "LK Metamorphosis" and be cured.
