How Narcissism and Codependency Pass from Parent to Child | Generational Narcissism
Episode Description
Narcissism and codependency don’t just appear out of nowhere — they are passed down through families, generation after generation. In this video, Ross Rosenberg explains why children of narcissistic parents often grow up to become either codependent or narcissistic themselves, and how the cycle of trauma and attachment wounds continues unless it is broken.
You’ll learn how conditional love, neglect, or emotional abuse shapes a child’s identity and attachment style, why codependency is actually self-love deficit disorder (SLDD), and why the human magnet syndrome draws codependents to narcissists again and again.
Breaking this curse is possible — and it starts with healing SLDD and building self-love abundance. If you feel stuck in painful relationship patterns, you’re not alone. Ross has helped thousands escape this cycle and finally find healthy, lasting love.
