Children who suffer from emotional abuse often elude the legal assistance of the child protection system. For example, this emotional abuse is usually invisible to teachers and social workers and even the family court judge. The alienated child will talk with the judge in language and syntax similar if not identical to the way the alienating parent talks. While the targeted parent often appears anxious,depressed, or angry, the alienating parent appears relaxed, composed, and, therefore, credible.
