Mother, stepmother, blogger & author who is happily married despite disbelieving fairy tales. I'm also an outspoken parental alienation awareness advocate. {I used to believe in fairy tales until my children and I began to experience the effects of parental alienation.}
What is parental alienation? "Parental alienation syndrome (PAS) is a psychiatric disorder that arises in the course of child-custody disputes adjudicated in the context of adversarial proceedings." The Not So Wicked Stepmother has a resource page for those who might have experience with this issue and need support.
I personally have watched several friends in recent years go through very difficult custody battles, trying hard to do what was best for their child(ren) and stay above the fray. It's heart breaking. Thank you for being there to support parents in these situations, and bringing attention to this issue.
Proud to have you be part of The Mom Pledge Community!
