Couples in court: the change in parental conflict and the false alligations

Abstract

In the field of Technical-Legal Consultancy, it is increasingly evident that the dispute over the custody of children is a way to destroy the partner. We are witnessing an evolution of the couple conflict where there is no negotiation but only the desire for privileged parenting to the detriment of the other parent. He is charged thus leading to the opening of criminal case against him, with consequent misrecognition of the child in a legal, physical and emotional sense. A tool through which destructive conflict can be enacted is represented by legal complaints, which in addition to achieving the stated goal, favor parental rejection in the child. What makes the legal complaint instrumental, even if grounded, is the adaption to legislative changes. Change the law, change the complaint. In this context of high conflict, any attempt at mediation becomes impossible and the concept of double parenthood is canceled. Thus, the satisfaction of the winner deprives the other parent of the child and the child of the parent, a child who, however, remains in a psychologically abusive context. The phenomenon of false accusations must not distance us from listening attentively and without prejudice; otherwise we will deny both the existence of violence within the couple relationships and the violence against children.
