In some cases of divorce or separation in which children are involved, one parent may feel left out, neglected or even hated by their child or children. While not always true, this can sometimes be the result of parental alienation. Parental alienation is considered by many as a form of abuse on children.

Divorce and custody battles are hard for everyone involved, especially children who may not understand why their parents are no longer together. In some cases, this misunderstanding can culminate in the form of extreme dislike or hatred for one particular parent, resulting in alienation, avoidance, and overall negativity.

When parental alienation occurs, the rejected parent stands to suffer even more, as they may feel that they are losing much more than just their legal binding to another. In some cases, this type of alienation can be brought on or fueled by the non-alienated parent, making the situation even worse than it typically would be. Many If you suspect this is the case in your situation, then you should immediately ally yourself with a Missouri or Illinois attorney who is highly experienced with matters involving domestic relations.
