Sibling Rivalry in Narcissistic Families: The Hidden Battle for Love

They do this not knowing that the entire dysfunction had been created by the narcissistic parent who wants to manipulate, hurt and abuse and ultimately steal resources from others, steal from the children, steal from the family to make themselves feel better about themselves.
Sibling rivalry is tough enough, but throw a narcissistic parent into the mix, and it becomes a battleground for affection and control. In this episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast,' Yitz Epstein dives into how narcissistic parents pit their children against each other to maintain power. Imagine siblings fighting tooth and nail for a parent's love, only to realize it's all part of a manipulative game. This rivalry isn't just childhood drama; it can scar relationships for decades.
Yitz explains how these manufactured conflicts create lasting resentment and deep-seated anger among siblings. Even as adults, they might still be competing for that elusive parental approval. But there's hope. By understanding the root cause of this rivalry, healing can begin. Yitz discusses strategies to break free from these toxic dynamics and rebuild healthier relationships.
Whether you're dealing with this yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights into the long-term impact of narcissistic family dynamics and the path to recovery.
