Abomination-Abandoned Child

This artist captures the horrible reality of divorce for some children!

Artists’ commentary: She was -like another victim of a divorce- abandoned by their parents, and lived in fear and misery. She had no place to go, and finally kill herself.. The dark power of vengeance raise her from death, and filled her with fury in her empty eyes.

Symbolism of Divorce

June 14, 2015 By Shared Parenting Confessional in All Confessions, Artwork About Child, Impact on Child

Artist describes her creation!

Statements in bold by Shared Parenting Confessional.

The gray woman on the far right. She can represent the girlfriend/parent/best friend/whatever-you-want-to-call-it on one of the parents side. This person is firm in what she believes in, she’s set in stone in what she believes, thus the reason why she’s gray.

However, her ear is only half the size it should be, and she’s missing the pupil in her eye to show that she only gets half of the story.

The parents. Each parent is wearing ear plugs and blindfolds, showing that they are oblivious to anything else except for what they believe is their right and what is for their benefit.

The fact that they both eventually turn into trees show that they are firmly rooted that what they say about the divorce is right.
The colors represent two things: anger and having a hard heart. So often, the parents are angry at each other, pointing fingers at one another, while showing no compassion for someone they once loved.
The vines on them represent communication, and the leaves represent each lie, each nasty comment said about each other. The fact that each adult has a leaf of the other spouse shows that they were married.

The mom is placed a little higher than the father, representing custody, and how a parent can have the upper hand on persuading a child against her other parent.

Now, for the little girl. She is wearing white to show that she is still an innocent child, that she has done nothing wrong.

Her eyes are covered, while her mouth is open wide in scream, symbolizing that the child shouldn’t just be another item for the parents; that she needs to be heard, not seen.

The bandage on her head represents the emotional/mental trauma a child suffers when the parents divorce.

The girl is wearing ballet slippers, but they are bound with bandages. So often, a childs’ hopes and dreams are affected because of the divorce.
Lastly, the vines and leaves that wrap around her show that she is surrounded by her parents lies and harsh words towards the other parent.

I hate it when divorced people put their child in the middle of the situation. It can truly cause emotional and mental damage to the child. Nor is it fair to the child simply because they are not the reason why the parents are now divorced. But because of our stubborn trait, we sometimes unknowingly put the child smack dab in the middle of the battlefield.

Please, protect the children that are going through divorce, that they might not suffer an abuse that is too often over-looked.

The Abyss

June 13, 2015 By Shared Parenting Confessional in All Confessions, Artwork About Child, Impact on Child

A deeper meaning of divorce:

“Now imagine a divorced couple, and then their little girl child. That child is always performing a dance on the rope, travelling from the cliff that is mother to the cliff that is father, the divorce the abyss it has to defeat.”

Parental Alienation is Real

June 13, 2015 By Shared Parenting Confessional in All Confessions, Psychological Abuse-child

The trickery of parental alienation will be revealed. Nothing can remain a secret forever! This is especially true with PAS.

They DO KNOW…… Don’t fool yourself by thinking their just kids and they’ll never know. They see EVERYTHING! They KNOW what you did. They know you lied….. about…… EVERYTHING!

Real Parents

Real parents vs. parents who engage in tactics of parental alienation.

REAL PARENTS don’t keep their children from the other parent “Parental Alienation is about parents who place their own selfish needs above those of their defenseless children and in doing so, they deny them their right to love and be loved by both parents.” ~ Dr. Reena Sommer

Emotional Support

June 7, 2015 By Shared Parenting Confessional in All Confessions, Psychological Abuse-child

Emotional support offered. A parent who has experienced the pain and heartache of PAS gives insightful backing to another parent in the throes of PAS.

I just wanted to post on your wall, and hope that your friends and everybody else see’s this. Parental alienation is a serious matter, it’s so unfortunate that so many fathers (mothers) have to be alienated from their children, and speaking from experience (being an alienated child) I know the pain, and the severity of the situation. It is unjust, and cruel, and no one should have to live without their parent/child because of someone else who is selfish by nature, and feels the need to subjugate their children because of their own negative emotions, that they cannot separate from the situation, and see just how vast the damage is, that is being done. Not only does the alienated parent have to get up everyday without their child, children are also suffering, and we all know the facts about what happens when a child feels as though one parent doesn’t want them (which sadly happens a lot of times because they cannot fathom why their father isn’t in their lives, especially young ones who cannot see the truth)

Though, I want every single father (or mother) to know who is reading this, who has a child that is separated from them. No matter what kind of hostility that is being instilled in their minds, no matter how they even react to a situation, their hearts beat a different tune. They may be influenced vastly by the parent that is alienating them, but their hearts speak a different story – they still love you, they still care, and because of the harrowing situation they don’;t understand. They are being manipulated and despite what their minds are telling them, what they are being taught – they can never eradicate the love they have in their hearts for you. Speaking from experience, they miss you, they love you, and they are being taught to hate, to be hostile – this is not who they are deep down. No matter what, don’t stop fighting, because there are happy endings. You cannot manipulate somebody forever, eventually they will see the truth, and it will come back and bite the one who did the wrong..
