Learn to “tame the narcissist!”
After a 12-year family court battle with a narcissist, Grace was able to get protection and peace for herself and her child. She succeeded against all the odds. Learn Grace’s “Skillful-Means Strategy” and “Grey-Walling” of keeping a narcissist out of areas he doesn’t belong in (like the details of your life) while calming his monstrous ego. You don’t have to open the door to the lion’s cage. You can just simply observe and maintain your sanity. Certainly don’t let them sink their teeth into you!
When co-parenting with a narcissist or dealing with family court, it can be like living in a circus. There are clowns and lions. The narcissist roams around freely. It’s not wise to poke the beast unless you are a lion trainer with skills, knowledge, and tools for self-protection at your fingertips. Trainers are experienced at disciplining big cats. No one would recommend that a spectator get in the ring with them. Lion tamers always watch their backs around hungry lions. Trainers feed them before and during performances for obedience. In the same way, a narcissist is hungry for attention and what is called: “narcissistic supply.”
What’s interesting about narcissists is that when fed, when they can see the whip and the sharp skills of the trainer (or when they want to put on a good show for others like a judge), they can behave a bit. Lions sense that the trainer knows their nature as predators. Narcissists know they are being watched. Is it wise to poke a sleeping, hungry lion without any training, tools, or an escape plan? No.
Sometimes, when dealing with a narcissistic ex, we mistakenly/unknowingly trigger the beast. Then, their fragile ego roars! We either have to endure narcissistic abuse, post-separation abuse, or legal abuse, or worse—we see our kids take the brunt of the narcissistic rage and his games. These manipulative mammals want to win. The narcissist has many tricks, tactics, and traps that they can set for victims. But, we survivors can use tools, skills, and strategies to stay in the ring for our children. We don’t have to leave the circus completely or leave our precious children behind in the unfairness of it all. We can use wisdom.
If you have children caught in the crossfire of a family court battle, would you stick them in the cage with an angry lion? No. Be smart and calculating. Take some time to self-reflect on your part in the equation of dealing with their narcissistic dad. Use Grace’s survivor wisdom to better the conditions for yourself. Be encouraged to seek support, use skills, heal, and overcome the narcissist.
