Half of children of narcissists become narcissists or failed narcissists (borderline). Otherwise, the other half of children of narcissists become codependent/people pleasers, who are by definition neurotic (an old-fashioned term). Codependents can heal. Some borderlines especially after getting DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy) can spontaneously go into remission/be cured mostly in their 40s. Narcissists are hopeless.
This is one of the most literally insane things I've ever seen. Thank you for exposing it.
Impossible for me to not like this post. As you say, there is no boundary to this madness. I have James Lindsay's recent podcast bookmarked to listen to also: https://newdiscourses.com/2023/10/kindergarten-asylum-sanism-education/
I'm just a reader, but I thought that narcissistic parents produced neurotic children.

Thank you for your insight and experience. I appreciate your comment.
