This chapter focuses on the group psychoeducation done with the favored parents in families with parent–child contact problems attending Overcoming Barriers programs. A systems-based understanding of parent–child contact problems highlights the importance of intervention with each member of the family. The author describes the personality traits, beliefs, feelings, and attitudes of favored parents as well as challenges that such characteristics pose to clinical intervention. Strategies to promote a shift in favored parents’ beliefs about the health of their children are discussed, including calling attention to cognitive distortions, teaching about concepts such as memory and suggestibility, and building skills for coping with emotional triggers. The role of group process and relationships among group members are discussed as possible mechanisms of change. Case material is used to illustrate key points.

AbstractInternational studies have shown effects of family relations on Internet addiction in young people. This research aimed to outline a discriminant profile of young people classified as dependent and not dependent on the Internet regarding to socio-biodemographic variables to parenting practices, parent-child conflict and interparental conflict. The sample consisted of 200 students (152 girls and 48 boys), between 15 and 24 years of age, 85.5% reside in Rio Grande do Sul and 14.5% in other Brazilian states. Participants responded individually to the protocol available online. The results showed that interparental conflict, parent-child conflict and the educational practice of supervision of paternal behavior discriminate dependents on Internet. The educational practice of maternal emotional support was the only discriminating variable for non-dependents. These national findings corroborate the international context studies and reinforce the importance of including the family in promotion and prevention of mental health of young people.

In spite of the fact that migraine often manifests as a familial disorder, the role of the family in migraine has not been adequately explored. In this study parent-child interactions in 20 families with a child suffering from migraine were analysed and compared with 20 healthy families and 20 families with an asthma child. The families had to solve a puzzle within a limited time. Parent-child interactions within migraine and asthma families were asymmetric, revealing a disease-specific interpersonal context in the family. Communication with the affected child in migraine families was significantly more directive, with more specific instructions and less help, towards migraineurs than with the healthy siblings. Dominance of parents and submissive behaviour of children were the main features of interactions. In asthma families interactions were more conflicting and less cooperative. This study demonstrated a specific, asymmetric, pattern of family interactions predisposing children either to migraine or asthma.

This chapter describes the status of outpatient clinical interventions for unjustified parent–child contact problems using an ecological systems approach. It starts with a review of the multiple factors found to be associated with the development of parent–child contact problems, which include parenting styles and skills, parental alienating behaviors, cognitive distortions, history of the parent–child relationship, parental psychopathology, interparental conflict, and court involvement. Next, the chapter considers the specific goals of reunification treatment for the alienated child, the rejected parent, and the favored parent. Finally, the chapter critically reviews the state of outcome evidence for a range of outpatient and intensive reintegration interventions. Key clinical and theoretical components of each intervention are highlighted, noting both components that the interventions share and those that distinguish them.

This introduction provides a synopsis of the overall scope of this volume as well of its individual chapters, which cover a range of issues related to parent–child contact problems and family-based interventions to address them. The traditional approaches of the law and the justice system have failed to deal adequately with these alienation cases. Family-based therapeutic approaches that use psychoeducation and clinical interventions with the parents, the child, and the family offer promise for improving parent–child relationships and child outcomes. While the book focuses in great depth on the Overcoming Barriers approach, chapters are also dedicated to other such interventions. The authors endorse the need for further research and program development.
