[quote=Anonymous]My estranged (but not yet divorced) husband regularly accuses me of brainwashing the kids to reject him. The reality is that he pushed us all to reject him, by being his natural self, prone to tantrums and violent verbal attacks, and often resorting to emotional blackmail and psychological and financial abuse to get his way. But he will never understand this. Or if he does, he will never admit it to anyone. I can see him trying to persuade a court that alienation has occurred. So while I want to believe you, OP, it's a red flag for me that some therapists recommended against reunification. It seem to me that if love for their children has been expressed by both parents in a healthy way, then the kids will recognize that at some point, and will come back to their estranged parent. It took A LOT for my children to dislike their father. A lot of abuse. I didn't manufacture or twist anything, they lived it themselves. Best of luck. [/quote]
