  1. This video hurt. Actually, I may be unsubbing if you're argument is that parental alienation is all false. It happened to my family, and mothers can be abusive liars. And MANY women play victim in the courts to get revenge on an ex. The sexist idea that children belong solely to mothers is awful but far too common.

  2.  @ladyeowyn42  Asking for proof is not victim blaming

  3.  @adapienkowska2605  You have to prove abuse actually happened! FFS people do lie.

  4. @tatiana4050  First you have to prove that safely is even an issue. I was safer with Grandpa than my Grandmother, who was an alcoholic and told me sexually explicit things about men at age 8. But SHE claimed he was the abusive one. Newsflash: Some women LIE.

  5. ​ @patray162 You're saying the OP wasn't alienated just because eventually they came to heal is gaslighting the fact that the injury happened in the first place.

  6. Hush summer child. Just listen to what our young doctor here preaches. Don't question her,she's educated.

  7. Parental alienation is REAL. My grandmother did it not only to my mom and her siblings to hate my sweet grandfather, but to me and my sister and cousins. She told me he was a child r4p1st, that he had altars to Satan in his basement, and that the hazel coloring in his eyes meant that he was possessed. She told me how he abused her. That he threatened her life several times. YEARS later, she confessed he never laid a hand on her and in fact, she once got drunk and tried to hit him in the head with a hammer. Grandpa never did anything to hurt 2 generations of children, bit we were all conditioned to fear and mistrust him. My grandmother died knowing she intentionally fractured her family out of spite.

  8.  @adapienkowska2605  It's a little disconcerting how you insist that this is in the best interest of the child but don't seem to recognize how much damage is done if the accusations are not true.

  9. @adapienkowska2605  I "felt unsafe" with my theoretical r4p1st of a grandfather. Grandma made sure of it. Telling me how he worshipped Satan in his basement. He not only never harmed anyone, but she confessed the year of her own death how she attacked him with a hammer. My mother, her sisters and my uncle (R.I.P.) didn't get the chance to reconcile with him until they themselves were grandparents. THIS HARMS THE CHILD. It seems to me if you truly cared about the best interests of the child, that would concern you. But you're more focused on narratives than facts

  10.  @melissabennett6571  That daughter will be a woman with a voice someday. If her mama honors her voice, she can say how things went down. It's sad that kids have to grow up to be heard

  11. @tatiana4050  Cite your sources. Mine is first hand experience.

  12.  @mongoose6685  When my grandmother alienated us from Grandpa, she kept saying it was because he didn't care about us. Not because SHE was keeping us away. This can happen a lot.

  13. @stitches318  Children CAN BE COACHED. I know. I was coached. I was coached to talk to CPS. Especially after the cops got involved. I was told just what to say to police. You might not want to believe a woman can be so deceiving, but human nature is human nature.

  14. Yeah will be unsubbing. You invited a lot of gaslighting with this video.

  15. But if left untreated, it can certainly happen.

  16.  @mlorencetti1  Mommies can hate Daddies just as much. But I will agree that when parents are selfish and use children as pawns, the child is the one one who suffers. My grandmother raised me to believe my grandfather was an abuser. When she was the one using emotional blackmail to abuse us children, for 2 generations.

  17. Not all of them.

  19. Wrong. It can work if the alienation is skilled enough.

  20.  @farkasmactavish  Ironic coming from someone with your behavior in other threads.

  21. @AliceVFame  Show me these "accurate statistics " because I have stats that day different from resources that are unbiased. She clearly is dismissive of actual lived experience so I went ahead and found my own. 13% is far too high for a mere 2 minute acknowledgement of parental alienation. You can be dismissive of my own lived experience: 2 generations of children alienated from my grandfather who never hurt a fly by my emotionally abusive grandmother who told me my body was a weapon to get money off of rich men at age 7. Now my mother and her 3 siblings are all messed up after she died This YouTube channel was theoretically another educational resource for people in therapy who are getting help. But instead it's a wonderful gaslighting tool to tell me my family's shared trauma is invalid because a bunch of Karens got 1 young doctor to agree with their biases on a YouTube channel.

  22. @farkasmactavish  First you have to prove the abuse truly was abuse.
    2
  23. @farkasmactavish  First you need to show evidence of actual danger. You can't just uproot a child on a "maybe".
    2
  24. @farkasmactavish  First you must show they actually ARE IN HARMS WAY. You really dislike due diligence, hmm? And I would appreciate it if you can elaborate on your falsehoods here: You claimed I said something I did not say. Explain yourself.

  25. @farkasmactavish  "Their side"...The only side is that of the children's. Fancy not seeing that.

  26. @tatiana4050  Vast majority of abuse IS NOT legitimate fam. There are endless court cases with false accusations.

  27. ​ @patray162 She addresses it in hardly a footnote

  28. @patray162  That's not true at all. It's not from the child's choosing. What are you saying?? A kid can be brainwashed. I myself was thoroughly brainwashed.

  29. Thank you!! I'm super close to usubbing this young doctor that I've grown close to admiring. Parental alienation is REAL and it HURTS.

  30. ​ @patray162 You act as if having a painful trigger is OP's fault. Have some empathy. Parental alienation is evil.

  39. She spent 2 dismissive minutes address it then went on to villainize fathers.

  41.  @farkasmactavish  It's odd how you're claiming I said something I never once said. Care to elaborate on why I should be shamed?
