All too often legal and mental health professionals focus strictly on the rejected parent and alienated child's relationship. The real pathology is actually in the other direction. The focus needs to be on favored parent and the child. Because it is counter instinctual (unnatural; biologically inconsistent) for a child to reject a parent, when this is observed in family court cases we need to pay attention. And the details are in the pathological relationship. Please visit www.naopas.com or www.drbobevans.com for more information on parental alienation and Dr. Evans.

Alienation cases frequently find the professionals associated with the case also split in advocating for one side or the other when in fact they are supposed to be neutral or at a minimum supporting the child.

While all this is going on the children are left in an abusive, alienating relationship. Please visit www.naopas.com or www.drbobevans.com for more information on parental alienation and Dr. Evans.
