Abstract

Nancy Erickson provides a compendium for challenging the typical allegations made against domestic violence victims by batterers and their attorneys during child custody litigation. She dissects the circular reasoning and gender-biased thinking inherent in charges like "parental alienation," a legal strategy often used against protective mothers claiming child or intimate partner abuse.
