Anna Karenina and alienation
A very modern real custody battle is in the news. This has been covered well by BBC R4 Today (1hr 47m), Judge Wildblood’s judgement (using and praising the media), and Karen Woodall’s post (and concern for what may now be made of it) – and no

We are family – Oh no you’re not!
Parental Alienation patterns are serious but not weird. They’re extremes of normal relationship spectrums. We know the inalienable experience of ‘being family’.

A rose by any other name …
… would smell as sweet?! Alienation is more prickly than sweet! … There are lots of reasons why we need a name for the pattern commonly called Parental Alienation. Some people do great work with Alienated children and families but without using that label.
