Narcissistic parents are unable and unwilling to empathize with their children. They discount and invalidate the emotions of their children, which leads their children to feel as if their pain is unseen and unheard. #3 The early years of a child’s life are crucial, as they depend on their parents for emotional and physical nourishment. narcissistic parents who are overly preoccupied with themselves or self-centered show little regard for the welfare of their children. #4 Those who have an excessive sense of entitlement believe that the world and others owe them something. They expect special treatment they have not earned, and they expect complete obedience from others.

Those who have had a narcissistic parent can testify to how damaging it can be to one's psyche. Narcissistic parents lack empathy, show a severe sense of entitlement to micromanage the lives of their children and often subject their children to neglect, as well as emotional, psychological and physical abuse. From the unique challenges daughters of narcissistic fathers face to the ways in which adverse childhood experiences affect our brains, Shahida Arabi's insightful essays resonate deeply with those who have been raised by narcissistic parents. In this new essay collection, Arabi explores how narcissistic abuse in childhood can set us up for trauma repetition in adulthood, affecting how we navigate relationships, the self, and the world. She pinpoints the toxic traits and behaviors of narcissistic mothers and fathers, exposing how covert abuse insidiously plays out in these specific dynamics. She offers the essential tools, skill sets and healing modalities for survivors who have undergone a lifetime's worth of abuse, helping them to break the cycle once and for all for future generations.
