Abstract
Literature and psychiatry have probed the psychopathology and Parental Alienation Syndrome in various cultures and centuries, shedding light on the complexities of family relationships. The prevalent belief is that parental misconduct arises from the mental illness of one parent. Psychiatric disturbances demonstrate cases where parents maintain filicidal desires towards their children. This paper delves into the intricate aspects of the parent-child relationship by analyzing the occurrence of filicide in medieval England.
