Child custody battles are emotional. Even well-meaning parents sometimes cannot agree on who should have primary custody of children. Unfortunately, sometimes parents even use their children as weapons in a fight against one another. Child custody disputes also arise if the custodial parent wants to move out of state with the child and the noncustodial parent objects under Connecticut's child relocation laws.
Parental Alienation Syndrome
Although it is sad to think about, parents sometimes use their children as pawns in an ongoing divorce war. Some parents are unable to encourage their children's healthy relationship with the other parent, instead blocking parenting time visits or encouraging the children to disrespect the other parent. This can result in what is frequently referred to, and recognized as, parental alienation. When a child begins to regularly disrespect or express active dislike of a parent — and there is no other recognizable cause — the child may have been subjected to parental alienation as a result of one parent's negative actions.
If you believe that your child is at risk of being influenced by parental alienation, a child custody dispute attorney may be able to help. Attorney Daiga G. Osis is familiar with parental alienation syndrome and, if necessary, can present expert psychological testimony to show the court that the child's long-term mental health may suffer if the current custody arrangement is not immediately changed.
Proving parental alienation can be a long and costly process and should probably not be undertaken without serious thought and consideration, including the adverse affect such a fight has on a child’s long-term mental well-being. Attorney Daiga G. Osis will listen to all the facts of your particular situation and then help you decide how best to proceed.
