This episode rips the mask off common family court narratives, taking you deep into the realities—and tragedies—of parental alienation. Host Truth Seeker exposes the facts, busts the myths, and explores how trauma bonds like Stockholm syndrome can transform children into emotional hostages within high-conflict custody battles. Featuring real-life case studies, expert clinical insights, and courtroom testimony, the conversation shows why distinguishing alienation from justified estrangement is crucial for the fate of children.
Listeners—from parents to judges, evaluators, and guardians ad litem—will hear why our courts desperately need trauma-informed reform and how mistakes made in the courtroom echo through a child’s life. Through powerful storytelling, this episode demands accountability, challenges the system, and gives voice to survivors whose pain is often erased by legal jargon. If you believe family court should protect children—not abandon them—join us as we break the cycle of misunderstanding and push for a justice system that sees beyond the headlines and into the hidden wounds of fractured families.
