Balancing Act: Protecting vs. Smothering in Parenting

The best defense against smothering and narcissistically abusing a child is to go on a healing journey and become the person your child needs you to be and ultimately, an example of who you wish they become.
Parenting is no easy feat, especially when trying to protect your children without crossing the line into smothering them. In this episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast', Yitz Epstein, a life coach specializing in narcissistic abuse, tackles this delicate balance. He dives deep into how well-meaning parents can inadvertently cause emotional harm by overprotecting their kids. Through engaging stories and practical advice, Epstein sheds light on the subtle yet impactful differences between healthy protection and harmful control.
The episode explores the consequences of narcissistic parenting, including emotional abuse and stunted development, and emphasizes the importance of setting healthy boundaries. Epstein also highlights the necessity for parents to embark on their own healing journeys, advocating for self-awareness and self-healing as essential tools for breaking the cycle of narcissistic behavior. By leading by example, parents can foster a nurturing environment where their children can thrive.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to create a healthy family dynamic while addressing their own past wounds.
