Narcissistic Parenting - Using Child as a Pawn

Narcissists use others as a way of gaining narcissistic supply and their children are no exception to this phenomenon.

This is done by creating an alliance with the child and brainwashing them to see the other parent as abusive and abusive: a truly horrific experience for both the child and partner of the narcissistic abuser.
