    Yesss. My narcissistic father has now turned my daughter against me. When she turned 18 he offered her a new car and he paid for her insurance. It’s now four years later and she still living with him she’s 22 and he has brainwashed her against me. She doesn’t speak to me at all. I’ve written letters begged to have a relationship with her But she refuses to have anything to do with me. All I can do is pray. It feels heartbreaking

    Way more convincing. They are the "victim" and the kids believe every lie and they live in such fear of her judgement. My stepkids are almost completely alienated from their father at this point. The kids are kept out of school to interfere with custody, their phones are blocked or not paid to interfere, they won't stay overnight anymore since they're older teens and we tried giving them more freedom - the narcissist took advantage and now keeps them under her control at all times. You can tell when she's monitoring their phones since their texts become her and completely out of character for the kids to respond in such a way. We've been in a custody battle for over a year. We won on every front and have a fantastic case for both alienation, and we could go after her again for defamation outside of family court. But that would be fluffing a narcissist's feathers. That's all she wants is to be the center of attention... it's a lose lose lose situation even though we win on paper....

    My 3 year olds dad started saying she is telling him that she doesn't want to come to my house and procrastinating coming over. He tells me this almost every time at drop off and when I ask my kid if she said that she says no. (Her speech is advanced so she understands the question). It's been going on for almost a year. She recently started peeing and pooping on herself at my house as well as hitting me in public when it's time to go. When I tell her dad this he claims she has never hit him and isn't peeing on herself much at his house. Is he alienating me? He is a covert narc so it's always possible. What should I do? My daughter is always talking about the good things daddy does and how she wants to go to daddy's.

    Today was the first time I didn't instantly call back/respond to my son's father's call. And when I did respond 7 hours later, he was freaking out, telling me how I won't see my son. I said, how is that any different? I told him he was predictable and that I refrained from calling because I knew what his reaction would be. 11 years of psychological torture at this point. I feel I have no choice but to take a step back. It feels unnatural, however, what I've been doing, has never worked. He is so manipulative, angry and abusive that my mental health has suffered tremendously. I know I have to be healthy for when my son breaks free. I feel it's time to back away.... I heard a good line the other day which said "Patience is not inaction" And it's so true! Any insight is appreciated. I just can't anymore. He's a tyrannical sadist.

    This has all happened relatively recently. A few months. It’s always been happening but not this bad. I’ve been really good about not speaking negativity and my ex wife but since she has been refusing to give the kids back because “they don’t want to and they hate me “ I’ve lost my temper a few times. Not off the rails but I’ve tried to reason and I’ve mentioned the custody agreement I have with the ex. Watching this video really has helped know what to do because I don’t want to hurt my kids anymore. Than they have been hurt already.

    I want to say two opposing things: Where have you been all my life? You are able to express this stuff so we’ll! And: I disagree with not telling the kids anything about what’s going on. The cognitive dissonance and loneliness for the kids is too great. I was alienated as a child and desperately wanted to understand what was happening. I asked parents and grandparents. No one would speak about it.

    Exactly. Wise words! Stick to them! Been through ALL of that. That's the ONLY (!) way. Amen. I have children, which were alienated for years and that children caried their burden as well, but got united exactly THAT way. They deeply respect and love me, the way I did (respect and love myself that time). It does sound like a esoterical equation but it is true. Being a parent in absence for a long time, was still being a awesome parent, they are kick ass proud of now. And ALSO the time they were alienated and damaged by the other parent. I know it hurts all the time BUT: - build the most healthy relationships - discover, what YOUR life is about - heal & grow in any aspect possible - get enough rest (that's the hardest) - ... ... (fill out for yourself) - keep NC! ... during that time!!! And I am thankful to the therapists of my children. At least one of them totally underestimated me. BAM!

    What did you do in those situations (where you had to leave because your spouse wouldn't stop yelling) when the kids were there? Did you take them with you or did they stay home? I don't want my kids to feel like they're being abandoned, but I also don't want to pull them away from their dad. It just seems like a bad situation for the kids either way and they might feel like they have to pick sides. What I've done in the past is told my husband that I was going to go out with the kids and when he felt like he could have a conversation I'd talk to him. Then, I take the kids out to go do something fun, but the kids aren't ignorant of what's going on when mom's getting yelled at... You are absolutely right, when you start putting up boundaries they really don't like it.

    WHAT WILL BECOME OF MY CHILD? I have come a long way in my journey and in my understanding of what my daughter is going through, but I will probably never understand everything. I agree with most of your thesis about what course of action is best for the child, even though it goes against what is commonly called common sense. However, I have a big question mark. What will become of my child if no one ever asks or questions. What will become of my child if what she learns and imitates comes exclusively from a narcissistic parent? What will she be like as an adult? I am convinced that who I am today is largely a result of how my parents raised me. Sure, I am my own person but the basic human view is deeply rooted from what I once learned and imitated. Now, when neither I nor anyone else asks or questions, will my daughter continue through life leaning on the only thing she knows? This knowledge is one of the reasons I will never give up!

    With respect, how about you say it's a "personhood" simply because sometimes it's actually the mother who becomes the target of parental alienation. Men and women are both capable of engaging in under the radar, clever PROCESS of parental alienation. These people are clever psychological manipulators. It's not only the children, but it is also friends, family and church communities that are hoodwinked. But there is ONE person who is never fooled and that is God, ie Jesus who SEES ALL and who will one day open the Books and pronounce Judgment.

Chorus: I have to give up now, I need to set myself free Because the pain in my heart just wont let me be My own flesh and blood used as soldiers in war against me Just look at what shes done to all lives, cant you see Outro: Blake and Zane as I walk away, I hope you understand, dont hate on me I never wanted this war, I never wanted to be you enemy Sometimes the only way to get someone back, is just to let them go You should also, Set yourself free, find a new path, allow your life to grow So my boys I bid you farewell, with love and regret I hope one day, we can reconcile and forget The pain and hurt that we've caused each other I hope one day we can start anew, with forgiveness for us all, and may be even your mother

    Im confused why you think it's selfish to text your daughter even if she doesn’t respond. When i wasn't responding to my dad, he still nicely sent me things with no expectations. That showed me he loved me. When he stopped, I took it as that he didn't care anymore. So it's just as likely that it's selfish to stop. Because it lets the targeted parent off the hook for providing demonstrations of unconditional love. There is a huge spectrum between "banging down their door" and disappearing. What do you think of that?

    Hello and thank you for this video. I've just started watching it. After having a not so good Christmas. My ex has continued to stop my younger daughter coming over to see me. I took her to court a year ago and we both got a court order to follow for two of my girls who is 11 years old and my younger is 6. However there's been numerous occasions she doesn't help the situation with my 6 year old. Discussing grown up talk to her. Words to encourage her not to come. However, when my daughter does come over she has a, wonderful time. Is just when she heads back to her mother she cries she doesn't want to come. On Christmas eve, I went to pick her up and her older sister, who is OK with the situation, as I'm guessing because she is at that age. But I still get concerned, as her mother uses her as a messager. Anyway went to pick her up on Christmas eve, my younger daughter wasn't there as mother took her to someone else's home. This was because she knew my daughter would want to come if she seen me. My older daughter was the messager again. Whilst mother hide in the house behind the door. So on Christmas day I didn't see my daughter. It was just me and my older daughter and her half brother for Christmas. Which I tried my best to be present, but the situation was killing me. I'm going to have to take her back to court as she's broken the court order now on two many occasion. Even got a text saying my daughter may not come on my birthday 28th. Any advice guys? As Im so concerned for my daughters mindset and how it may effect the younger greatly. Sorry about the long message too. Thanks. Please reply anyone 🙏🏿

I think my daughter gets it but I really fear for my son and I’s relationship. His dad has lost sight of right and wrong and is indoctrinating him, telling him every piece of our court dealings, making up bold faced lies, and blaming me every step of the way. I can see all this but my poor child cannot. I did like how you stated when my child repeats the lies he is in survival mode and it doesn’t mean he’s left me. I will hold on to that.

    I agree and I disagree. There is a time to fight this and that is when it starts, before the children are alienated. Once the children are fully alienated, I agree it’s time to walk away but let them know that the door is open should they wish to re-connect.

    It has been my experience that places the child in a double bind and a dual loyalty bind, which further isolates them because now they have to choose sides when all they want to do is love both parents. Furthermore, most parents are so angry at the other parent that they dump that anger into the child, which further damages the child. Once the child becomes an adult, usually 25-35 or older, and only if the child wants to know should the other side of the story be told, but it needs to be done with extreme care and very good boundaries so once again, the child is not placed in the middle or infected with the anger the ex partner might still feel. We all have our own approaches. It sounds like he believes differently. I always believe people should follow the path that they feel suits them best.

    I agree with most of your video, but have to disagree with telling the child that both parents love them. (Likely) narcissictic parents do not love their children. Any parent who openly lies and creates (proven) false narrartives about the other parent not only doesn't love the child, but are overtly abuse to the child. By telling the child that parent loves them is condoning and normailizing abuse- the very abuse that got most of us in this position..

    I’m so thankful for you right now I hope you could plz help me I’ve got 4 kids 2 of my kids just turned 19 my other 2 are 16 and 15 everything was going ok then suddenly I conversed with my kids about having a say so in a protection order that their grandfather got against me with all my kids under it, the judge granted it for 10 years that is when my last child turns 18. In the last 3 years I’ve been haveing regular visits w the protection order there it’s just the grandfather passed and bc he passed the strict rules on them not seeing me or talking to me at all was removed when he died. So I was asking my children if they still wanted this protection order and I asked them bc a child is able to make decisions on this at 12 to choose weather or not they want to see me..anyways to my horror my youngest tore me apart telling me she knows I physically abused her when they were little this is absolutely not true but she says she remembers! How do I even compete with a so called memorie they have? And how did this fake memory come about how do I go against this?

Honestly the fear of how yo discuss what happened is crippling my hands down biggest worry is how do i appropriately explain what happened to us when my child is old enough. Does anyone have advice on a semi boiler plate way to explain alienation? Im extremely worried about potentially causing a further divide and nobody wants that. The biggest thing i guess is how do you explain things without causing anger or resentment? Sorry about the awkwardness of this and best of luck to anyone in this situation!

    What if the other “parent” is my mother?? I have spoken badly around him before, but don’t anymore. Is that repairable? I do feel the need to tell him the truth though - I have given nuggets of truth at times, but want him to know the full truth someday. He’s 22, almost 23. For now, I’m keeping as tight a lip as I can and just showing love. It really hurts me though because he continually chooses my “family” over me. This past weekend was his college graduation and it was super hard for me to be there with them in the same room. It was a beautiful ceremony and I’m so happy for and proud of my son, but I’m also really hurt and it brought up A LOT of feelings for me.

    Kids can’t look at the court documents unless there are civil and not family court documents. An exception is appellate decisions and briefs. You would have to produce them to show. Family court records are sealed except for orders and pleadings. You can prove if you paid child support, and if you tried to gain custody or parenting time by your documents, but the rest is too legally technical for a young adult with emotions high to navigate. If you are in the position, like I was, too have had to pay to have a transcript made of hearings, then, if there are testimonies that could help the child understand then, maybe hold on to that for when they are adults.

    It's to late for my children as 15 years ago the children assisted the Ex in having their father removed by an Ex-partee order. They told their friends and had a good laugh at their father's expense. After 22 Judges the last one cut the money tree down and a year later the one son shows up to see what happen to the tree. I was not allowed to see or have contact with any of my children for years. This son was Angry, Mad, Violent and I nearly called the Police on him. I settled him down and started to answer any question he had. At first he didn't believe me and I could show him any paper work to him. This is not the same son I knew years ago and I'm having troubles relating to him. I was forced to bury my children to try and get on with my life. Thanks to the COURTS!

At least in my world, a person gets to speak as loud or quiet and irrationally as they choose. Therefore, I don’t like to tell them how to speak. Instead, I would say something more on the lines of…. I can’t hear you right now. I have just found that with loud voices and noises I can’t listen the way I would like. I hope you’re willing to understand. Goodbye.

I work in mental health and education and this poor girl who is now 15 has spent the last three years not in rolled in school, unable to attend in a state of psychosis develop seizures at 13 1/2 everything she could possibly do to avoid leaving her dad and leaving her bed and leaving her place of safety to go venture out in the world, he would move different school districts, and I would have to start all over knowing the process going down to the office of the superintend it to get her registered only for her to be assessed and then then move again before she was placed in appropriate program or services, I finally got her to move into the district in which I work, and because we’re very liberal and supportive and because I have establish relationship With my coworkers and colleagues, I was able to slowly build rapport and trust between those people in my daughter, and I’m hoping this fall. She’ll begin to take more steps into independence and confidence in a live. S and I have those relationships to think and just falling back and being patient anytime I stepped in to the her and her father‘s relationship it just cause problems for my daughter, so I really just had to sit back and be patient and talk a lot to my friends and family and get support for me

    Very grateful I just found your channel. I never realised how deep this alienation was going. I am struggling how to get my 17 year old son and 14 year old daughter out of the middle. My stbx throws all decisions on parenting time to my children telling them that they are young adults and can make all their own decisions. He considers the plan as optional and due to their ages I have no legal recourse. At the same time he has manoeuvred majority time with both children because I was the one who had to leave the house and they are comfortable there. I will have to settle that property this year to move on and I am concerned he will spin that to make me look bad. My communication with my stbx is text or email only. And the first thing I did when I got a place to live (I left in a hurry and had nowhere to live) was to get them a phone between them so I always had a way to contact them and they could video phone me. And I pay for it. I communicate with my stbx all parenting stuff after the children and I discuss on the phone what their extracurricular activities are. He does not reciprocate. He has both children utterly convinced that they get to do everything they want because it’s their life, including just changing plans of who they are staying with at a moments notice. I am vision impaired and do not drive so suddenly I am trying to figure out what’s going on. He will not communicate AT ALL if there is a change and my daughter forgets to tell me. This leaves me looking confused and unstable while he just tells them this is their right. I have also inconvenienced friends with needing a last minute lift for my child. Both of my children are highly disciplined and my son is very fearful of leaving home to go to Uni. I wonder if he feels like he has to parent his little sister and protect her till she is ready to leave. I did make the mistake of trying to set the record straight when I apologised to them for leaving in a hurry. And they have both seen his occasional attempted violence. And they heard his profanity punctuated put downs at least once a month for the last decade. I have shared bare bones of age appropriate truth because I felt they deserved to know more than just “it didn’t work”. Both children have told me their Dad does not say mean things about me even though they have been convinced by those who fell for the smear campaign that “Dad was only violent because Mum tried to force him to talk about stuff and that’s controlling.” Anyone have advice or a comment. I do not want to be anything like him so I keep presenting my boundary that they both ‘ask’ instead of just telling me changes at the last minute. I have asked them to just quietly say “Dad that’s between you and Mum.” I just get an angry response that it’s their life. Treading on quicksand here. I feel I need to have a life and capacity to say what suits me as well. I believe modelling a full life will show them what is possible. I also want my children to realise that they can run to me if they need to for safety. I am in Therapy and an online support group but not specifically geared to parental alienation.
