Do narcissists love their children?

7 Reasons Why a Narcissist Doesn’t Love Their Children

My mother once said, "You'll see this happen when you have a baby: when the baby is inside of you, it's all yours. Once you give birth, the baby isn't yours anymore. It's everybody else's."

I, too, heard a lot of "I wish I never had children," and, "Your father loves you more than he loves me."

What's the most valuable lesson you've learned in life, and how has it impacted your journey so far?

With my first pregnancy, I was terrified this would happen. It never did. With my second son, I was terrified I wouldn't have enough love for both children. As my friend Rae explained, "love just multiplies." It sure did!

So I don't understand how my mother looked at motherhood. I don't understand how she could look at a baby and it not be "hers" anymore. I was no more than an obligation, a millstone around her neck.

I'll never say as she did, “I wish I never had kids.” That's just too cruel to understand.

Joe Biden is not the best president we had. That would be John F. Kennedy. How is voting for Donald Trump any worse than voting for Joe Biden?

If an NPD mother does love her children, it's for what they bring to her, and I felt that I brought her nothing but pain and shame after I was finally born.

I was too young to understand how my mother was insanely jealous.
