When parents separate often the children remain with one parent as the main carer, with the other parent having a contact order. Often divorces can be bitter, and children used as pawns to hurt and seek revenge with no thought of the impact that this can have on the children. Often one parent can be denied contact to their children by their ex partner, without the children having a choice in the matter, and are gradually alienated from the other parent. The court process is slow, and very expensive. The impact of this can be huge on the children, and lasting well into adulthood. Currently there is little in place to support either the alienated children or parent in these cases, and I would like to see fairer laws in place, with social workers and courts being seen to take a more serious stance in such cases. Parental alienation is emotional abuse. Something needs to be done to stop this practice, and the long term damage it can have on the children.
