Story
Many people are in the midst of a high conflict court and custody battle with a narcissist. They begin to experience the narcissist’s gas-lighting and wrath in many ways. Not only do they experience this, however. They find that their child is the victim of gaslighting and brainwashing also. The non-narcissist doesn’t realize that the other parent brainwashes the child and triangulates the child against them. Eventually, the child begins to detest and hate the non-narcissistic parent.The non-narcissistic parent never knows what they did wrong to deserve their own child hating them.

Half of all marriages end. Unfortunately, about 20% of divorces are high-conflict, involving frequent visits to court, allegations of abuse, and chronic disagreements regarding parenting schedules. In response to this conflict, some children become aligned with one parent against the other - even a parent who has done nothing to warrant the hostile rejection of their formerly loving children. These parents are on a painful journey with an uncertain outcome. Surviving Parental Alienation fills the tremendous need for concrete help for these parents.

If you are feeling this way, my friend, there is a simple explanation. You may be dating or married to a narcissist. Your self-absorbed partner may be gaslighting and manipulating you. He may cycle between love-bombing and distancing himself from you. He seems to be a nice guy to your face sometimes, but then you find out that he is talking bad about you to others. He seems to triangulate you with other women or family members in order to make you jealous and boost his own ego.

Although clinical research has been conducted on narcissism as a disorder, less is known about its effects on victims who are in toxic relationships with partners with Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Individuals with this disorder engage in chronic devaluation and manipulation of their partners, a psychological and emotional phenomenon known as "narcissistic abuse". Unfortunately, the full extent of what narcissistic abuse entails is not taught in any psychology class or diagnostic manual.

Light bulb moment that allowed me to start healing

Written by: Jackson MacKenzie
Publisher's Summary
Being partnered with a narcissist or borderline personality can be hard enough, but learning how to shield children from the fallout is paramount. Here, the authors tell listeners how to manage parenting when a narcissistic or borderline partner is part of the equation.
Life in a narcissistic family system is at best challenging, and too often filled with chaos, isolation, emotional outbursts, and rigid controlling behaviors. It is too often devoid of peace and emotional safety. In the worst outcomes, children in these families grow up with low self-worth, issues with trust and belonging, and a lack of self-compassion. They are at significant risk of carrying the cycle forward and having poor adult relationships. This book offers a way to intervene and disrupt the cycle of negative outcomes for children.
Authored two family therapists who bring a combined total of 60 years of clinical practice with individuals and families, the book pulls no punches, giving clear-headed advice, easy-to-follow actions to help children, and an abundance of teaching examples. Instead of the doom and gloom scenarios often presented about life with a narcissist or borderline, this book provides a much more positive outlook, and most importantly, it offers hope and a path to an entirely different outcome for the family members.
Supported by current research in neuroscience and mindfulness, and parenting information, the book focuses on teaching resilience and self-compassion to raise emotionally healthy children, even in a narcissistic family system. It starts by helping parents get a clear understanding of what they face with a narcissistic or borderline partner. There is no room here for denial, but there are also many options to explore. It explains how and why the narcissistic family system functions so poorly for raising healthy children, and pinpoints the deficits while providing information on how to intervene more effectively for the benefit of the children.
Using their years of experience, the authors present ideas for staying together as well as knowing when to leave the relationship and how best to do that. Emphasis throughout the book is on supporting and strengthening the listener with encouragement, concrete ideas, skills, and compassionate understanding.

a guideline for condoning abusive behaviours
This whole book is just about how to avoid and manage an abusive partner's behaviours. Should be called a guide to walking on eggshells. I only gave it one star cause I couldn't give it zero.
if your partner acts like this, get out as fast as you can.

If you've sought this book out you are likely....having a time. Let me assure you this book will make things feel less scary and much more manageable. It's honest, and practical and despite some hard truths, is very comforting. You essentially receive the professional, compassionate and non-judgement advise and support you would expect of a therapist in book format.

Wish I had when my kids were younger
Dr. Fjelstad and colleagues write so clearly and helpfully it amazes me. All of her books have been so helpful, brave, and honest. So many healthcare practitioners want to hide behind clinical jargon and keep you on a hamster wheel that catering to the borderlines and narcissists in your life. Finally someone who has the bravery to tell the truth.

A Must Read for Those Raising a Child with an NPD or BPD Parent
The writers of this book have a very thorough and clear understanding of the challenges presented when trying to raise children with an NP or BP parent. This book is well-organized and written in such a way that I felt encouraged, validated and supported. It offers both realistic and compassionate solutions while addressing the anger and frustration felt in these households. The volume and value of information presented in this book is equivalent to an entire course on the subject. It was an easy listen, aside from the tolerable, but slightly robotic narration. This book is essentially a “how to” guide to getting your sanity back and learning how to navigate parenting under such difficult circumstances.

Accurate Description and Context
I unfortunately find myself in the position described in the book. I have read a lot about the topic and keep hoping for a solution, but ultimately it seems there isn’t a clear cut approach. The book does a great job explaining, giving context, and validating but really only presents mitigative approaches. Still worth the read though.

So helpful
Definitely a must read for parents with a significant other/spouse with BPD/NPD. Validates many thoughts and feelings and provides many helpful suggestions. Let’s you know the “model” everyone else shoves at you to do, does not fit for relationships with a BPD/NPD. But….gives hope that a relationship can continue. Also, very realistic. Doesn’t just try to make everything sound perfect or easy.
