I’m having a hard time telling if my mom is narcissistic or not. She actually calls my brother her “golden child”. He still lives at home and she totally caters to him. Then she’ll complain about him to me. Would that make her codependent? But she also says/does so many other things these memes have shown.
News update:
Berklee College of Music has fired 11 male teachers since 2004 for sexual misconduct. Details of four of the accused indicates that they are most likely narcissists. The Narcissist’s Twin Lines of Defense was used by one of the accused and the vast majority of students that were preyed upon were international students afraid of losing their scholarships and student visas. If you read Me Too, then you may remember the list of reasons why True Victims do not speak out: b. Fear of repercussions; e. Our kind always operate on an imbalance of power.
California shooter: “Mum, it’s all over now,” Kevin Janson Neal’s mother said he told her in their final conversation. “I have done everything I could do and I am fighting against everyone who lives in this area.”
Neal killed his wife and two neighbors before heading out for a shooting rampage at a local school. Sheriff Phil Johnston states: “I really don’t know what his motive was.”
I posit that Neal suffered from NPD, was losing control, felt criticized and used his heated fury as a weapon to heal the wound to his construct.
This one actually made me laugh. If ever there was an acon to fit my life this is the one!! I can laugh now bc i see how absurd it is but years ago it made me angry and upset. My mum would come over for visits and would constantly bring up my brother and his life despite the fact we hadnt seen each other for years bc….of her!! Obsession is the only way i can explain it. Shes obsessed with him. My grandmother(dads mum) even seen it and would say to me…your brothers her whole world he better not let her down or itll destroy her. This always hurt me but it cut thru the gaslighting that it was me being sensitive or all in my head as my mum had said to me many times. Now years later shes favoring my son over my daughter. Its definitely not imagined!
Her golden child is constantly on her mind. I am curious now that ive taken myself out of her trio to triangulate who the new scapegoat is? Is it his wife? His wifes mum? One thing i know for sure is there is another scapegoat to triangulate with bc that is needed in the narcs life dynamic and im no longer that person.
At least I never had to deal with this one. I used to worry when I was very small, what if they had another baby? I knew instinctively that then I would lose what little good things I had and only get more abuse. There are advantages to being the only child – even if you’re the scapegoat.

You are worth marketing.
I’m decent at marketing, but it has to be someone I’m enthralled by.
Were you the golden child?
No, then I was but it was a case of heavy lies the crown.

Oh, yeah….this one really hits home. I was never the golden child. I was always the scapegoat.
At least I never had to deal with this one. I used to worry when I was very small, what if they had another baby? I knew instinctively that then I would lose what little good things I had and only get more abuse. There are advantages to being the only child – even if you’re the scapegoat.
