Psychology says the cruelest thing about being raised by a narcissistic but charming parent isn’t anything they did at home — it’s the structural impossibility of being believed by anyone outside the house, and a child who learns early that the world will never see what they see grows into an adult who has stopped trying to be understood by people who weren’t there

The endless requirement that the child organize themselves around the parent’s emotional needs. These are all real, well-documented, and worth talking about. But there is a second feature of being raised by this kind of parent that ... Read more Read more
