Many people don’t understand sibling estrangement, and some are unfamiliar with the word due to the shame and stigma surrounding the breakdown of a primary family relationship. It can be threatening to consider the possibility of estrangement, and some simply don’t want to hear about it. Others may have some awareness, but they may have misunderstandings about the experience. This episode addresses some of the most common misperceptions, such as “I’m the only person experiencing estrangement;” “It’s your responsibility to fix the problem;” or “There must be something wrong with me if I can’t get along with my sibling.” Listen to the episode to learn of other misperceptions.
