How Narcissistic Exes Manipulate Your Kids’ Emotions

If you’re co-parenting or divorcing a narcissist, you may have seen this heartbreaking manipulation firsthand: narcissistic parents use guilt, tears, and emotional pressure to make the children feel responsible for their happiness. This isn’t love — it’s control.

In this short video, I explain:
💔 How narcissists use emotional manipulation to gain sympathy
💔 Why children end up feeling responsible for a parent’s feelings
💔 What healthy parenting should look like by contrast
💔 How parental guilt tactics quietly damage kids’ emotional stability

You’re not imagining this — and you’re not alone.
