Looks like this condition is beginning to receive some media attention:
Thanks for posting, what a great article. I looked at the webpage and found an associated article about kids and loving the unloveable (kids) which was interesting, especially if you have a child of entitlement as i do. One with N tendencies.
People assume its teen development, but when your kid has always been difficult, somewhat abusive and non appreciative, this manifests to horror degrees in teen years, and you start to see that time is running out for things to improve, and the basic lessons to be learned.
Its hard to swallow.

Thank you for posting this! WOW, I just sent this to my therapist too… i swear, every single story, I read on feels so close to home,
This quote from the article sums me up:
“I no longer knew what was true and what was a lie. I was emotionally battered, my confidence was in shreds, and I felt the person I had once been had somehow been sucked out of me by Dan’s bullying and manipulation.”
great article. i am going to save this for future ref!
