Summary of Shahida Arabi's Healing the Adult Children of Narcissists
Description:... Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The effects of a narcissistic parent can be seen in the lives of their children, who often exhibit similar traits. They have a long-lasting, destructive effect on the well-being of their children. #2 Empathy is the ability to understand someone else’s point of view, thoughts, and feelings. 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.
