Louise shares her story with BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour
It wasn’t until Louise had her own children that she began to question how her mother had raised her.
‘I lived through seven years of thinking that I should parent the way she parented. It took me having my second child to be like: ‘No, this isn’t right. This is not how a mum treats them.’ Because I love mine and I want to hug them,’ says Louise, ‘whereas she never did that.’ ‘From what I've learned about narcissists, they try to separate their herd, their children, away from other people. And they'll say everything negative about everyone else, because they want to keep them close. They want to keep them on their team, on their side, like it's a war.
Louise’s research into narcissism made her reflect on how her mother’s influence and parenting style had loomed large during the early years of her first child's life.
