This judgement is a very difficult/long read. This case is brutal. I can’t begin to comprehend the catastrophe left behind for this father, the 2 siblings, their family. RIP Child D. May this tragedy help stop the disinformation that plagues this space. caselaw.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ewfc/2025/422

In the case, the judge dismissed unsubstantiated abuse allegations against the father but confirmed the mother's alienating behaviours—such as oversharing distress and badmouthing—polarized the children's views, feeling conflict that contributed to D's 2023 suicide at age 14.

Insights from lawyers confirm the plague of gender-based assumptions, false allegations, no interim contact, and lack of professional curiosity in family law. Yet the media only invite that one self-serving barrister who churns out her narrow-minded, sexist, harmful stereotypes?

Should be read by anyone even remotely taken in by ideologues who deny that women are abusive and that alienation is bad science. Whilst my team have never worked with quite such a tragic case we encounter self harm and risk taking behaviour in serious alienation cases.

Outcome could not have been worse. We shouldn't argue about DA or "alienating behaviours" we need better assessment and treatment in family courts.

The father, who was not eligible for legal aid, incurred legal costs exceeding £75,000 for the fact-finding hearing alone. His total legal fees for the entire proceedings reached approximately £367,000 #FamilyCourt

There is a line between acting fearlessly in your client’s interests and weaponising procedure against a traumatised, unrepresented party. Proudman crossed that line, with catastrophic consequences for this father, found to be victim of domestic abuse. juneventerskc.co.uk/news/recognisi…

The level of hate, aggression, misrepresentation, disinformation a narcissist engages in against those who expose them is extreme & may last for years. They get sadistic pleasure destroying those who might stop them leading their dark life by revealing their fake facade.

Dr Karen Mitchell PhD DSM certainly has its limitations. There may be more predators in the psychology and social work field than we realise?? The predators are in-charge, just like in politics?

A malignant/covert narcissist, psychopath, coercive controller (human predator) isolates their partner from family and friends like a predator animal in the wild approaches its prey. They do it quietly, slowly, hidden from obvious view. The partner feels no sense of danger,

Most people think depression means looking sad, crying, and wanting to talk about it But depression in men often looks a lot different e.g. looking angry, drinking more, and withrawing from others Isn't it time mental health professionals realised this?? centreformalepsychology.com/male-psycholog…

Brian Smyth now they are coming for your registered Clinical Psychologists. I wonder if they will go for any in the ACP-UK and if they don't why not? 🤔 Dr Craig Childress has advised for over a decade to stick to the DSM/psychological constructs. caselaw.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ewhc/fam/2026/…

What are the chances that their goal won't extend to eradicating all of psychology and fathers from the family courts? After all, how many psychologists do you know have not documented cases where mother is pathogenic...

Rachel Horman-Brown KC (Hon) What's in family court is pathology. The only solution should be psychology. But that is not what you ladies want to hear is it. Is "believe women" and removing every fathers right the only solution you have? Pitty the children. x.com/righttoloveuk/…

You forced me to study narcissism, now please enjoy the fully educated, informed, and upgraded me.

Do you know what gaslighting is? Gaslighting is trying to convince someone that something they saw or heard or experienced is different to what they saw or heard or experienced. The objective of gaslighting is usually to sadistically confuse & undermine the confidence of

Dark personalities (narcissists, psychopaths) don’t have empathy but they may act out empathy to achieve a goal. They may be involved in religion. They may become volunteers, ambassadors, board members at charities. Smart predators create an exceptionally convincing façade.

There is nothing more desperate than a narcissist who thinks they’re losing control. They: - Approach people privately with artificial information about their target - Spread outrageous lies - Falsify records - Scream ‘I’m a victim’ - Ignore proof of their own ‘badness’ - Harm
