If you are not familiar with the term Parental Alienation Syndrome, the Founder of the term, Richard Gardner, M.D. describes this problem as:
A common way in which a parent will contribute to the alienation is to view as "harassment" the attempts on the part of the hated parent to make contact with the children. The alienated parent expresses interest in telephone calls, attempts at visitation, the sending of presents, etc. These are termed "harassment" and the children themselves come to view such overtures similarly. In frustration the parent increases efforts in these areas, thereby increasing the likelihood that the attempts will be viewed as nuisances. “Recent Trends in Divorce and Custody Litigation", Academy Forum, vol. 29, no.2, 1985, pp.3-7
Alienated children may grow up to become adults who:
Have trouble trusting others.
Have low self-esteem.
Have difficulty sustaining intimate relationships.
Feel shame for hurting the rejected parent.
Suffer from depression.
Engage in substance abuse to relieve the pain of parental alienation.
Are more likely to experience divorce.
Are more likely to have difficulty with authority and the law.
Experience the loss of their own children through parental alienation.
