High-conflict separation ends healthy family dynamics and destroys childhoods. When parents weaponize their children, coach them to lie about the other parent, manipulate therapy sessions to serve their agenda, or pit siblings against each other in impossible loyalty battles, the emotional devastation can last a lifetime.
After 40 years and over 4,000 high-conflict custody evaluations, Dr. Peter Favaro has witnessed the darkest tactics parents use against each other—and the collateral damage inflicted on children caught in the middle. As Managing Director of a leading custody evaluation practice, he's seen how inter-parental hatred strains relationships and distorts reality, causing parents to genuinely believe the other parent is dangerous even when evidence suggests otherwise.
In this essential conversation for anyone navigating difficult co-parenting, Dr. Favaro discusses:
What "weaponizing children" actually looks like—the specific tactics toxic parents use and why they convince themselves it's justified
The role of personality disorders—how narcissistic and borderline personality disorder patterns fuel high-conflict custody battles
How inter-parental hatred warps perception—when parents create false narratives of danger that trap children in psychological warfare
Character disorders vs. difficult personalities—understanding when you're dealing with a disordered parent and what that means for your children
The destruction of sibling relationships—how high-conflict parents turn brothers and sisters against each other
