What is parent alienation syndrome?

Parent Alienation Syndrome

In some of the other tips under this category, the Emotional Guru has talked about common behaviors seen in the aftermath of a heated custody battle. Although much of this behavior (e.g., thinking the other parent is poisoning the children's mind or only wanting shared custody to spite you) is common and will resolve itself over time, sometimes these feelings and emotions become prolonged, and set. This is called Parent Alienation Syndrome and it can be very damaging to the children.
