https://present-father.com🎙️ Guest: Shawna LachenmeierTikTok: @TheUnseenParentInstagram: @theunseenparentParental alienation isn't a fathers' issue or a mothers' issue. It's a children's issue.In this episode of The Present Father Show, I sit down with Shawna (@TheUnseenParent), a mother, author, and advocate helping thousands of parents understand one of the most misunderstood forms of family trauma.Rather than using her platform to attack her ex or relive every detail of her custody journey, Shawna explains why she intentionally shares only parts of her personal experience. Her mission is to move the conversation away from blame and toward awareness, education, and protecting children from the lasting effects of parental alienation.Together, we discuss:• What parental alienation really looks like• Why it's not a fathers' issue or a mothers' issue• The subtle tactics that often go unnoticed• The emotional impact on children and targeted parents• High-conflict divorce and navigating family court• Why awareness matters more than attacking the other parent• Finding hope, healing, and purpose after alienationWhether you're a parent, grandparent, therapist, attorney, judge, or someone trying to better understand family dynamics, this conversation offers practical insight into protecting children's relationships with loving parents.If this conversation resonated with you, please Like, Subscribe, and Share. Every share helps bring awareness to families silently experiencing parental alienation.#ParentalAlienation #TheUnseenParent #PresentFather #ChildCustody #FamilyCourt #HighConflictDivorce #Parenting #Fatherhood #Motherhood #EmotionalAbuse #CustodyBattle #CoParenting #DivorceRecovery #FamilyLaw #MentalHealth
