The family courts often label cases that last more than one to two years as “high conflict”. The label presumes that both parents involved are angry and fuelling the litigation process. It has now been proven that family court files classified as “high conflict” often have one parent who has emotionally disengaged from the former partner while the other parent has a mental illness or personality disorder such as narcissism (or other Cluster-B personality disorders) and remains fixated on perceived injustices and grievances.
It is with this awareness that I understand familial dynamics such as these deserve unique and careful handling by family court professionals because the safety and well-being of children are a concern. We now know that it does not always take ‘two to tango’ in family court where there is a power imbalance, personality disorder or domestic violence.
