- Parental Alienation Fallout When Children Are Grown
Is parental alienation real? Definitely, says Madison Wellborne, who discusses how her mother manipulated her into rejecting her father through false accusations and lies, leading to long-lasting emotional and psychological effects. In this episode of the Modern Divorce Podcast, host Billie Tarascio and Madison explore the effects of parental alienation on children, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and self-destructive behaviors.
Madison describes the emotional turmoil and the impact on her relationship with her father, whom she once considered her best friend. She explains how she mourned her father's absence as if he had died and the significant challenges she faced as the only child among her siblings who was alienated. Madison also delves into the psychological effects of parental alienation, including anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, and shares her journey toward healing and reclaiming her life after discovering the truth.
Rebuilding Relationships: Madison emphasizes the importance of rebuilding relationships with alienated parents and speaks about the formation of the Anti Alienation Project. She highlights the need for adult children of parental alienation to speak out and support each other. The episode also provides practical advice for parents to avoid alienating behaviors and foster healthy relationships with both parents.

Thank you so much for the interview!! I appreciate you exposing this terrible form of severe psychological abuse
Keep it up! Hopefully my daughters come across your content.
Madi, I listen to your videos all the time, but this particular interview my husband (the targeted) listened in and started asking me questions. I was able to explain certain things to him. It's a soft way in for him to think about what his kids are going through. Thank you for your courage to continue to be open for the those of us who need to hear this perspective and take courage. We appreciate all you do
Madi, you did a great job in this interview sharing your heartbreaking alienation story.💕
Maddie, you need our community. We will uphold you. We know exactly what you went through, are going through, and what you will continue to go through. The pathogenic is plotting. I feel it. So stay strong. We are here.
Thank you for sharing such a powerful story and important subject. This impacts my situation deeply and I hope all those effected by this can learn and heal. The truth needs to continue to be seen about this topic. Keep up the good work.
Such a crucial perspective
My oldest stepdaughter, at age 11 had done the same thing about "I have my own brain to make my own decisions". Then when my husband went for his parenting time, the kids refused to open the door because they were told he might be angry at them. (I was there when they called their Mom and refused to answer the door.)
In reality the mother wanted to be the center of attention, in control and to have their own "family meeting" because she heard we were doing them for the kids on his MINIMAL parenting time.
His ex wife also was the one who wanted the divorce, we were having family meetings to figure out how a blended family could benefit everyone involved, mostly addressing any of the concerns she kept saying the girls had with us. She also stopped going to family systems therapy to help boundary the 2 households. Narcissists always quit therapy because they do not believe there's anything wrong with them when they refuse to be accountable for their actions, they have an inability to self-reflect.
My oldest Stepdaughter was always put in the middle and she kept asking to be kept out of it by her child therapist. I heard it loud and clear, 💔I'm just sorry I couldn't have been able to protect them more from this type of abuse, but I am an alienated mom, stepmom & aunt too. Thank you Madi and Modern Law Divorce for this interview and raising awareness. 🙏
Having the 4 other kids definitely helped him stay positive and have hope for you to come back, Maddie. All 3 of my children are rejecting me with varying severity. I think my oldest will never come back to me.
My thoughts: the interviewer didn’t grasp how psychologically and emotionally abusive parental alienation is. It’s almost like she was very softly debating versus trying to understand. I don’t think she made the connection…
Alienators are horrible people. There. I said it. You were amazing, Madi. Brave and courageous.
Wow wow wow. Chills and tears and everything in between! Thank you for sharing so openly, Madison! I especially loved the examples of alienating behaviors. Truly loving and protective parents would never want their children to experience this kind of ab*se.
I hope you all do another episode together in the future!
She alienated you (girl) because she KNEW that would be MORE torture for your dad since you were his only girl. She kept him somewhat close (through brothers) but tortured your dad using his only daughter.
Thank you, Billie, for interviewing Madi to help spread awareness of this horrific form of abuse. Unfortunately, it's something you can't completely understand through textbooks.
Hopefully this will spur attorneys, courts, therapists, child services, law enforcement, etc to understand this abuse as much as possible to help save children from it. There is no amount of co-parenting happening by the alienator, and as long as no one stops their abuse or makes them follow court orders, the alienator will continue to ramp up the abuse (even after age 18). Sadly, Madi's alienation is more common than we realize.
At 25:00, you mention alienators truly believe they are doing what they think is right. I am not convinced of that. For example, Mental Healness claims these personality types will blow themselves up before they will do anything that looks like they are admitting they did anything wrong, even the smallest thing. And this conforms to my experience....they know their actions aren't the best, but they aren't about to change...even to help their own children. Instead they increase the raging, threats and lies to manipulate. And on the rare occasion this tactic doesn't work, they make up lies and twist excuses to their 'followers' so they are the victim.
Thank you again to both of you for your great efforts in bringing light to this subject!
Maddie's story is just SO POWERFUL and important
Thank you for covering this topic
With gratitude for this video, I would like to say that it might have been easier for Maddie’s dad since he had four children still in his life. And what might have made it a bit easier also is seeing Maddie at different times.
She knows what she did. They knew what they did.
Please do a video of 34:00 through
Needs to be shamed
Its your choice
Loyalty bind
"Can't make her go"
At 36:00 not saying a single word: love, gifts, money, microexpressions
Micro expression of hate or fear
Weaponizing affection
Rewarding rejection
If youre celebrating that, at all, its alienating
There is no justifiable alienation
... Etc.
In fact, can you just cut that as a clip and get it out?
I’m releasing a video next week about how parents can alienate without a single world. Stay tuned:)
Thank you for a great interview and exposing Parent Alienation. This is the ultimate betrayal from someone who is supposed to love you. A child should be a child not be exposed to adults issues at all. ❤️🙏
The abusers KNOW how to use the courts system people. They aren’t dumb. They are pathogenic. They learn…differently.
@@sonyaclove4178 Especially if the alienator parent has money. I talked to a judge once that said, "Family Court is corrupt. This is why I retired early.". Meanwhile a lawyer in family court: "I have to see how I can spin this to win". So they're willing to lie and put your child through damage's to win. Not to mention what it does to the targeted parent.
No…in her mind, she was rewarding Maddie for rejecting her dad. Why twist it? They are pathogenic…period. Let’s address the elephant in the room. These parents are pathogenic and can be very dangerous. What now?
25:37 many times the children are divided.
By abuser manipulated a judge and got a false RO on me as well. Traumatic.
Unfortunately apps like OFW only work if the courts enforce their orders. In my case they don't unless it is me that is breaking the order. ~Hugs~
19:24 was the brothers' relationship with both parents healthy??? If a parent can abuse one child, that does not make them a healthy parent.
so true!!
My son dad is keeping my son from me completely now. At first i had to pay cs biweekly which is when i got him. I had to pay him first then say i can come get him. At one point i didnt know where he was. I have been turned around at his school cause i wasnt on his info, still not. I got married had 2 kids and thro out he made it hard. Barely seeing my son. My son at one point was getting bullied at home by girlfriend 2 boys. She end up cheating on him lol. He failing in school but took him to get earrings jus cause i dont like it. They blame it on my husband being muslim but i personally think 12 is too young to have earrings with bad f grades. Can he work for them atleast.every year i would have to fight to have him for holidays. Hell his mom tried to take the kids from him he told me. Sheesh.anyway he was diagnosed with cancer last year my son did say he wanted to stay by his dad side n i didnt fight that. So now he getting married and have a kid this month n in may he tired to apologize for treating me like shit as my son mother. I disnt accept the apology then he continues to throw out dates of events that he have for my son for the summer. Alllllll on my weekends to have him. So 1 weekend was for her son b day and i wanted to take my son on a family outing. We went back n fourth for the next weekend he promised i could get him the following weekend. The next weekend which was actually my week, he tells me its his baby shower this week. I was pissed yes i sent the cops n both of them were mad. My son called me cry cause he was scared n told me his dad told him he can make his own choice when he wants to come to my house n this dont make him want to come over or talk to me. Every since then. The last time i saw my son was mothers day. Its july 26th. And watching this jus lets me see all angles. I need more of this.
🌚☄️❤️💫
The interviewer is interesting…..
I hope you find healing because it seems that you are still very hurt. Please remember that there is both good and bad in everyone, as we are all human beings. Understanding this may help you find forgiveness for others who have hurt you deeply.
Would you say this about a sexually abusive father?
Well, he has some good in him. No, you wouldn't.
Psychological abuse is a bad as suxual abuse. It makes you question your reality and trust yourself.
