orms of parental alienation include:-

• brainwashing,
• character assassination
• the false inducement of fear
• incitement of shame,
• using children to commit relational aggression against the target parent,
• loss of self control,
• flareups of anger,
• unconscious alliances with the children against the target parent.
• delibrate denigration of the children's relationship with the target parent.

Parental alienation can all be mild, moderate, or extreme. Parental alienation often forces children to choose sides and become allies against the other parent. Children caught in the middle of such conflicts suffer severe losses of love, respect and peace during their formative years. They also often lose their alienated parent forever.
