One of 18 St John Street’s specialist family Barristers Anna White is co-presenting a Child Concern Seminar: ‘Parental Alienation – The law and psychological perspectives’.
Presenting alongside Ali Mather who is a Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Miss White will be sharing her thoughts and legal experience/insights on Zoom next Monday (24th May 2021 at 17:30). Tickets are available for this event here.
Parental alienation is often defined as when a child’s resistance or antagonism towards one parent is unexplained/is because of psychological manipulation by the other parent. There are several definitions for it but that is the broad meaning. Being one of many reasons why a child may resist spending time with one parent after separation, all potential risk factors must be considered. This includes domestic abuse.
Child Concern is a registered, non-profit making charity based in the North West. They consistently aim to work to further and improve ‘knowledge and practice of all persons involved and interested in the law and practice relating to children and children’s issues’.
