Infos

During divorce, children are often dragged into the fray, becoming innocent casualties. Although research has shown that a child's development depends on the parents' ability to protect their child from conflict, many couples fight indignantly over custody and visitation rights. The second edition of Divorce Casualties expands upon the evidence found through extensive research and stresses the importance of both parents' participation in actively raising their children while going through a divorce.

---

Some parents consciously, blatantly, and even maliciously denigrate their ex-spouse through negative comments and actions. Others simply sigh or tense up at the mention of the targeted parent, causing guilt and anxiety in the children. The result is a child full of hate, fear, and rejection toward an unknowing and often undeserving parent.Exploring issues such as secrecy, spying, false accusations, threats and discipline, Divorce Casualties recognizes the often subtle causes of alienation, teaching you to prevent or minimize its damaging effects on your children. Dr. Darnalls practical techniques for understanding the effects of alienation, including characteristics of alienators, symptoms of alienators, a self-report inventory and exercises, and real-life examples, will help even the most well-intentioned of parents renew their commitment to helping their child maintain a healthy, happy relationship with both parents.
