A listener pushes back and asks, “How do we know the parent claiming alienation isn’t actually the abuser manipulating the narrative?” When a child rejects contact with a parent after separation, is it parental alienation or justified estrangement?
In this week’s fan mail, a listener pushes back with a challenge about a previous episode that aired October 16, 2025, titled “Why Does My Ex Always Blame Me When the Kids Want Nothing to Do with Him?”
This listener wanted to know how to tell when the person complaining about a toxic co-parent isn’t actually the abuser.
