The Core Characteristic of Emotional Abuse in the Personality Disordered Parent
“It is no exaggeration to state that children of a PD parent are considered by that parent to be a possession, or commodity, to be used in the service of the PD parent’s ego. Whereas the average parent instinctively knows that they are responsible to be emotionally supportive to their child so that the child can grow into a healthy adult, the PD parent demands that the child emotionally support, nourish, and protect the parent. Relationship, support, and deference only can go in one direction: from child to parent.”
