Narcissistic Family

Summary: It's a culture that has existed for generations, with genetic pre-cursors, abuse, and no accountability, charm, cover up and influence. The child can be affected by environment, education, or suppression, depending on the example. As an adult, the child carries the past or finds personal growth.
