					<description><![CDATA[Spot on! Thank you! As I read through the article, I had to stop several times while reading it. Each time I stopped reading I was grateful for what I was reading, but I kept saying to myself I wanted to forget that it was right and stop reading. Five times I did this......Normally I read at a quick pace, not with this post. Thank you and the Lord so much for helping me understand all of the confusion. The help has helped me save myself for me, my family (regardless of how much the narcs don&#039;t want boundaries), friends and neighbors. We all do so much better with hope and prayer. 
Happy New Year to Everyone!!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hi Melanie,

Thank you, this is useful input going into the Holiday season. Keeping a clear head while “swimming” in emotions that come with the celebration is not easy, and these insights definitely help.

Happy Holidays (not being sarcastic) :)]]></description>

Dear Hurt Mom,
My heart goes out to you. I have been there, though of course your personal experience is it’s own painful version of inexplicable. I too have a teenaged son, now 19 years old.  From years of experience I have learned the hard way, and for me, the only way, that though everything in you screams to heal your son in the places he doesn’t even know yet that he has been wounded, the only real and lasting healing will originate solely from your own healing.  It will be the ultimate act of faith on your part.  But your healing, as incremental and paltry as it may feel, is the answer. You have more power than you ever dreamed. You can do this. My son and I made it through and it remains a miracle to me. You can and will heal. Both of you.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[My Stepson and his wife have played out every form of gaslighting to my husband and myself but especially my husband.  After years of trying to be family I understand now it’s just not going to happen.  At first I felt I had been a bad stepmom somehow.  But it’s not the case.  It truly is my stepson who’s the narcissist.  He comes from a lineage of them.  His mother her mother and my husbands mother all narcissistic women. 
 Each very abusive mentally and physically to thier husbands and children.  
I didn’t fully understand the amoral part  but now I do.  My stepson and his wife live with her parents have a baby and are pregnant with another.  They are both 27 and capable of caring for themselves but the “wife” of my stepson wanted to move back home with her mommy and daddy.  She has a history of quitting jobs to avoid working.
 It wasn’t until I saw a posted video of another “cousin’” pulling the baby in her little wheeled walker around the garage in a wheeled vehicle himself she was behind him and no parent was watching her that I realized yep they truly don’t care.  She’s not one year old yet and anything could happen in that scenario where she could have gotten really hurt.  One fall or accidental out of control move by the “driver” who was a kid himself.  In the video my step son and his wife are both separate from each other in the garage playing on their phones while the baby is being ripped around the garage space.  
They have already tried to use the baby as a pawn so my husband and myself have decided to go no contact.  It’s hard but eventually it all does make sense.  You realize these are not good people even if it’s your own kid and it’s better to save yourself because they will not change.  It’s rare and that person has to want to change.  The lie they live to justify and create their grandiose persona is too much for them to lose.  Even though they truly are a turd of a person.  You will learn that.]]></description>
