Today's video is the second in a two-part series on recovery from parental alienation. I focus on the child who had one of their parents scapegoated by the other. Recovery involves finding it safe to question longheld views towards both parents. Survivors had to believe that the other parent deserved the narcissistic parent's cruelty. The narcissistic parent threatened abandonment or attack otherwise. Safety happens in relationships that allow one to think their own thoughts without such threats. I describe three steps in the recovery process: deprogramming, surrendering ownership of your attitudes towards the scapegoat parent and healing your moral injury. An anonymized case example will be used to illustrate throughout.
