On October 18, 2022, Robert D. Weinberg presented on Avoiding the Parental Trap to the Children’s Issues Subcommittee of the Family Law Section of the Allegheny County Bar Association. This panel discussion stemmed from an article he authored entitled Avoiding the Parental Trap, which appeared in the Summer 2022 Volume of the Pennsylvania Family Lawyer. The other panelists included Dr. Eric Bernstein, a forensic psychologist based in Pittsburgh, and Dr. Ruth Zitner, a practicing psychologist with a focus on reunification therapy, based out of Washington, D.C. Mr. Weinberg and the participants covered a wide range of concerns including best practices in thinking about alienation allegations, best practices in terms of both litigation and treatment approaches, and generally placing parental alienation in the context of overarching family dynamics.
