Parental alienation

The phenomenon of parental alienation: why does it happen and how do you deal with it?

First, we would like to explain what Parental alienation The courts in Israel and the tribunals refer to parental alienation when one of the parents incites the minor against the other party.

Also, examples where the minor refuses to go or see the other party for no apparent reason. Another example, when a minor refuses to meet with the other party and a parent refuses to even encourage him to go or talk to him, it is determined that this is parental alienation.

Parental alienation, in 1985 the term  parental alienation syndrome was coined by Richard Gardner, who saw it as a subtype of emotional abuse of the parent by the child.

Furthermore, a phenomenon in which the minor Taking sides in the divorce battle or after it for no reason is a known phenomenon and also needs to be addressed.

 Over the past few years The case law regarding parental alienation has evolved. And the court, as well as the tribunal, know how to carry out enforcement, which is unfortunately not uniform, and to provide relief to those who seek it.

The Tel Aviv Family Court, Honorable Judge Erez Shani, ruled in favor of his sentence. What is the phenomenon of parental alienation?

“Parental alienation” It is a phenomenon that occurs in children of parents who are in a custody dispute over them, and is expressed in the children’s alienation from one of the parents without justification. In order to determine that this is parental alienation syndrome, it must be determined that there is “parental alienation” without any justification,

A question that is constantly asked by clients is why the other party seeks revenge through the phenomenon of parental alienation and uses the children. Unfortunately, the answer is simple: probably the same party. hit I think it’s revenge on the other side.

In this regard, the words of Honorable Judge Haim Porat

“The importance of the child’s relationship with both parents increases, especially when it comes to a young child. Young children lose feelings for people they do not see frequently and develop a sense of alienation and alienation towards them. This stems from the child’s difficulty in perceiving time. He does not understand the significance of the duration of the other parent’s absence. At an early age, it is very important to maintain a close relationship with both the mother and the father. The prevailing approach today also recognizes the centrality of the father and his importance in the lives of children in early childhood. In the past, the common worldview of the father in the social and legal system and even among family members themselves was that of a breadwinner rather than a parent engaged in raising young children. In contrast, the central and exclusive importance of the mother was emphasized. This pattern is no longer exclusive. Social and ideological changes have highlighted the extent to which the father’s place has been neglected in the analysis of the procedures that the family goes through, and to what extent the centrality of the father and his importance to the child, especially in early childhood, are now recognized.”

Important tip – Our recommendation is to not bring the children into the divorce fight under any circumstances.

Think about the fact that later you will pay a heavy price, psychological, personal, and moral.

Important to know – The Tel Aviv District Family Court currently handles the phenomenon of parental alienation under a special procedure. When a PA or a social worker in the assistance unit identifies parental alienation, she can send a special form and then it reaches the judge on duty and there will be an urgent hearing. Within 14 days To examine the claim.

desert Honorable Judge Erez Shani

In fact, the procedure established in the Tel Aviv-Jaffa court recognized the fact that since parental alienation is an illegal phenomenon, whether alienation in the making or alienation that has already occurred, alienation – that is, an unjustified severance of contact as opposed to justified reasons, then providing emotional therapy to solve the problem or emotional therapy to one of the parents or even the children is only one step in the “combat” of illegality.

Go out and learn. The judge sees the phenomenon of parental alienation as “bad” and that action must be taken to eradicate it, and preferably one hour earlier.

Our firm has years of experience and many successes in the stubborn battle against the phenomenon of parental alienation through tort claims, transfer of custody, and alimony in both the family court and the rabbinical court. In this ugly phenomenon, action must be taken and it is forbidden to wait, but this must be done by managing an organized strategy and choosing the right remedies.
