Narcissistic Mothers and Fathers

Download | Duration: 00:03:59




Mothers and fathers of narcissists are often narcissistic themselves. These parents are emotionally cold, manipulative and lack empathy. They are incapable of having genuine relationships with their children. The child of the narcissist is a puppet of the parent. The puppet master, the narcissistic parent, directs his child's life. After years of rehearsal and imitation, the future narcissist has mastered the part written by the parent(s). There are many individuals who grew up with narcissistic parents who are not narcissistic. They have suffered great emotional and psychological pain and deprivation as children. Many of these individuals survive and grow to be authentic, creative and loving  people. Visit my website: www.thenarcissistinyourlife.com

    Although we were born into The Land of Narcissism we don't have to remain haunted by the abuse we endured there. There is an escape. There is a way to leave the Land of Narcissism, the abusive parents and the enabling siblings. There is a journey to healing and an adventure of self-discovery awaiting you.
