Narcissistic Mothers And The Scapegoat Golden Child Trap
In this episode of the Breakdown to Breakthrough Podcast, we delve into the toxic dynamics often found in families with narcissistic mothers, focusing on the devastating roles of the scapegoat and the golden child. Lisa A. Romano, a leading expert in codependency and narcissistic abuse recovery, breaks down how these roles are created, maintained, and manipulated by narcissistic mothers to uphold their fragile egos and maintain control over the family narrative. Listeners will gain insight into how a narcissistic mother’s need for validation and superiority often results in one child being idolized as the golden child while another is targeted as the scapegoat. This divisive dynamic not only pits siblings against each other but also inflicts deep emotional wounds that can take a lifetime to heal.
