The Narcissistic Parent: A Guidebook for Legal Professionals

The Narcissistic Parent: A Guidebook for Legal Professionals Working with Families in High-Conflict Divorce

In divorce litigation, family law professionals can play a crucial role in supporting childrenâ€™s healthy emotional and psychological development following the break-up of the intact family structure, and in helping the family transition into a new separated family structure. Children love their parents, both parents, and all children want the love of both parents in return. However, in the context of high inter-spousal conflict children are often compelled by the pathology of a narcissistic parent to choose sides in the spousal conflict against the other parent. In these circumstances of high-conflict divorce, minorâ€™s counsel, guardians ad litem, and family law judiciary become crucial to helping resolve the childâ€™s triangulation into the spousal conflict and restoring the childâ€™s healthy developmental trajectory. Recognizing and helping to resolve the influence of the narcissistic parentâ€™s pathology on the child is crucial to the role of the legal professional in supporting the familyâ€™s successful transition to a new post-divorce separated-family structure of independent families and shared co-parenting. In The Narcissistic Parent, Dr. Childress provides a brief primer on the features of the narcissistic personality parent that impact the role of legal professionals working with children and families surrounding divorce and child custody issues.
