The traditional model of domestic abuse is deeply flawed. Scholarly research is clear that men and women are equally likely to be victims of domestic abuse. But now social scientists are sounding the alarm that domestic abuse may be more a generational issue than a gendered issue.
That’s due to parental alienation. A parent commits domestic abuse when they use coercive power and control over their child, through physical, emotional or psychological means, in order to hurt that child’s relationship with his or her other parent, often in the context of family break-up.
This serious dysfunction severely affects a child’s development and transmits intergenerational trauma. But once we recognize the problem, we can take steps to protect children and break the cycle of abuse.
