Title: Here is a question...
Post by: dontunderstand on Aug 07, 2005, 04:04:46 PM
If a parent PAS's a child and the child plays the game (telling mom and therapist what they want to hear), but doesn't hate dad, Is it still PAS?
Title: I would say yes

Because PAS is categorized by the behavior of the child.

However, parental alienation should be nipped in the bud BEFORE the child feels compelled to engage in the behavior too,  as the damage is done to the child long before they begin to play the game.
