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. 650 0 $a Narcissism $v Popular works. 650 0 $a Personality disorders $v Popular works. 941 $a 1 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20210206011133.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=080115CA684911EBB0377CA823ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
