	Parental alienation syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS) is proposed as a syndrome of behaviours arising from a process of parental alienation claimed to have been observed in situations where one parent is implacably hostile to the other.
		Some critics suggest that 'parental alienation syndrome' cannot be referred to as a 'syndrome' since it does not appear in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Psychiatric Association, nor is the syndrome recognized by the American Medical Association, or the American Psychological Association.
		Critics of 'parental alienation syndrome' generally point out that it is not a generally accepted theory within the scientific community and that it lacks a widely agreed upon definition, firm diagnostic criteria, and empirically based research studies.

		Their efforts to interfere with the target parent's visitation are persistent and pervasive, including attempts to block the target parent from having regular, uninterrupted visitation with the child and from having telephone contact, as well as trying to block the target parent from participating in the child's school life and activities.
		Accusations against the target parent's relatives may provide a combination of revenge, allegations that are difficult for the ex-spouse to defend since they are not directly against him or her, and a means to exclude the relatives from post-divorce involvement in the child's life.
		The target parent may be rendered ineffective to stop this cycle because providers retained by the alienating parent, and who take her assertions at face value, often refuse to talk to the target parent or allow the target parent access to child's medical records.

	The Parental Alienation Syndrome: An Analysis of Sixteen Selected Cases by Dunne and Hedrick
		The alienating parent is generally unconcerned with the psychological effects on the child of the rejection of parent and extended family.
		In one case, the non-custodial mother was the alienating parent and in one case, the non-custodial father was the alienating parent.
		Although the "parental alienation syndrome" was only first described in 1985 (Gardner, 1985), the question arises as to whether PAS has always been evident in the divorcing population, but unrecognized, or whether it is a recent phenomenon, perhaps increasing in prevalence.

	Parental Alienation
		The Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS) is the systematic denigration by one parent by the other with the intent of alienating the child against the other parent.

	Parental Alienation - AmJForPsy
		There are a wide variety of causes for parental alienation, including bonafide parental abuse and/or neglect, as well as significant deficits in a rejected parent's functioning which may not rise to the level of abuse.
		The child's loving experiences with the target parent in the past are replaced with a new reality, the negative scenario shared by the programming parent and child which justifies their rejection of the alienated parent.
