A syndrome a child suffers due to
parents using the child to manipulate and / or arm twist the other parent into adhering to certain obvious manipulative requests. Requests such as inflated child support which is not actually used to support the child in it'
s entirety, last minute schedule change for self-serving purposes, rules limiting the possibility of a new significant other to
add family value and balance to sed child's life. Situations include and are not limited to "claiming" to have a significant other who takes highly unusual interest in a step fatherly / step motherly roll - with the ultimate goal of creating jealousy and envy where the
father / mother will respond with a desire to cock block / muff block the new predator.
Doug: you'
re not taking our daughter to Daniele's
house for dinner. Our daughter can wait to
eat until I pick her up @ 8. I
don't want our daughter thinking he's her
father by being a guest at his
house for dinner. If you go against my wishes I will keep you from seeing your daughter and I will go over there and whoop his ass right in front of our daughter. (Arm twist and cock block)
Linda:
fine asshole! Then you can't take our daughter around Janice. She'll hurt our daughter anyway by leaving you. (Reverse arm twist / muff block)
*Both happy with outcome; however, child has arm twist syndrome
