Do narcissists love their children?

Do narcissists love their children?

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

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

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.

Why do men always bring up “the draft” (the last military draft was in 1972) when abortion rights are being discussed? - are they advocating that women ought to owe our bodies to the government? Should anyone owe their body to the state?

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.

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!

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."

Molestiae omnis voluptatem sed assumenda et.

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