Estranged Mothers Meetup Support Network

Connecting Estranged Mothers

Welcome to Estranged Mothers Meetup, a safe space where mothers and grandmothers support each other in navigating the challenges of parental estrangement, fostering healing, and building resilience.

This group was started by three Midwestern women, all of whom suffer from Parental Estrangement Syndrome. While Facebook may be a fine place to meet virtually, and share your story and vent your anger, shame, sadness, or even share hope and encouragement... let's face it... it's not a great place for ORGANIZING in-person meetups among mothers in widely differing geographic areas. Hence, this website.

When we get a sufficient number of potential attendees in a given area, we will share the information with you... the date, time and place of meetings.

About Us
How Does It Work?

This website is new as of September 2024, so we are just getting started. The idea is for people to sign up, and tell us what general area you are in, so we can start creating meetups in the areas of highest interest.

We NEVER share or sell your personal information, and will not "spam" you with annoying, irrelevant emails. We respect your privacy and promise to only contact you occasionally, and only with information regarding potential meetups.

When we get a sufficient number of interested mothers (grandmothers, etc.) in your area, we will work toward setting up an actual in-person meeting, during the daytime, in a safe, well populated venue. Contact us with your interests, questions, suggestions, etc.

Community Support

Develop a solid support network near you, with mothers (and grandmothers, too!) who understand your pain.

Since this website was started in Sept. of 2024, we have added a few new members each month. Patience is needed as we continue to build a network across the US (and as of October, we even have one member in CANADA!). When you sign up (below), please be sure to note your city and state, so we can add you to the list, and connect you with others in your area. (See the list of members' locations by clicking "Where Are We Meeting?" in the menu at the top right side of this page.)
