1
Hey hi everyone my name is Jerry Wise
2
and the topic today is the narcissist's spouse parent meaning the spouse who is the other parent
3
and why didn't they protect me we also could call them
4
the enabling parent much like in an alcoholic home you have the alcoholic and then you have what we call the codependent,
5
the enabling parent who enable the alcoholic.
6
Narcissists have enablers too.
7
They bring enablers around to them.
8
Flying monkeys are enablers for narcissists.
9
That's my topic today and what I've done for years is to try to help those who grew up in dysfunctional families, narcissistic families,
10
broken families and get
11
that dysfunction out of them what is an enabling parent in
12
a family with a narcissist as a parent a parent who is not the narcissist
13
but enables the narcissist now sometimes you have two narcissistic parents
14
and one's more of an enabler one's more of a malignant or more negative narcissist
15
the narcissist enabling spouse simply are those parents who have made
16
it easy for the narcissist to continue their destructive parenting
17
and habits now that you're adults i try to shift people it's not
18
so much about what they did or what they didn't do
19
but what is left over in you that's what's really important
20
for us as recovering healing adult children of narcissists it's not
21
that I don't care about the trauma or the pain
22
or the hurt or the damage or abuse
23
or neglect all those are important and it's important
24
that we acknowledge them it's important that we don't
25
and no longer stay in our denial about them
26
but what do we do now with the way they were
27
and the way they treated us narcissists enabling spouses number one do not know self -care self -respect self -confidence
28
or self -regulation they don't know those things they weren't programmed in
29
that way and if you have two narcissistic parents then this is a little different
30
but i think both probably it would apply to both as well
31
but again they don't know those self skills
32
and that's why they're more likely to be enablers they could
33
have been abusive in many ways from neglect to physical abuse these enabling parents we all had unique family dynamics
34
and and will talk about the common roles
35
or typical families with a narcissistic parent so
36
if your experience was not exactly that
37
that way that's fine as we all say in recovery programs take what you can use
38
and leave the rest so we experienced pain hurt
39
and even terror at times what else did we learn or internalize
40
or took into adulthood i have a lot of people who
41
can talk about their trauma what happened how horrible it was then and that they're still suffering from that
42
but they don't know how it works in them they know what happened they never have pain
43
which is important
44
but how does it work in you how does it work in relationship ships how does it work
45
and how you relate to you
46
and i think that's some uh focus that's a focus that could really be helpful in recovery and finding freedom.
47
So you might ask yourself in what ways have you internalized your parents?
48
I realize you might be an enabling parent now.
49
You may mirror the enabling parent.
50
You may tend to mirror the traits of the narcissist.
51
There could be some mirroring going on that's very close or parallel.
52
What I also like to look at is the deeper dynamics.
53
How are those dynamics at work in me and how I look at relationships,
54
how I do relationships, how I am reactive, how I'm not reactive.
55
I like to look at those things because they actually go deeper and maybe are a finer tuning to our recovery.
56
Second of all, enablers are in denial about how they didn't or don't protect others.
57
I've had many, many, many people, friends, clients, everybody, so many have come to to me and said, even my parent now who's 85 years old,
58
I can say, Mom, don't you realize how awful Dad was as a narcissist?
59
I just didn't feel very protected by you.
60
What will they respond?
61
Well, there was nothing more I could do.
62
Or it didn't happen.
63
That isn't true.
64
Your memory is faulty.
65
We had a great family and you had clothes and food
66
and you were sent to school and you had a new car
67
when you were 16 they'll begin to talk about things like
68
that and completely ignore what you're talking about and how toxic
69
and damaging the narcissist parent was to the whole family
70
and to you
71
and they'll still ignore it even these many decades later they chose the narcissistic parent over the children
72
and over themselves they stand by when the narcissist tells lies is cruel is abusive
73
then they may come to pick up the pieces
74
that have been shattered oh honey it's better to forgive your
75
father you know how he is let's get some ice cream you know there's nothing I or you can do.
76
So let's just try to be happy or let's go on with our day.
77
We are always powerless and these are some of the silent messages that are sent.
78
There's nothing you or I can do.
79
Remember we are always powerless.
80
Don't fight back because it will only make it worse.
81
Yes your dad is wrong and this can be a message that can be a silent message.
82
Yes your dad is wrong but he loves you I may have been wrong
83
and not protecting you but you know I love you
84
and I wish this hadn't happened okay and again I would say that comes out of a certain emotional location
85
that your enabling parent was in and was in as a child
86
and was and it was a bequeath to them by their family
87
and they can talk like that from that position but
88
if you're in a different position maybe you're in recovery you're
89
just shaking your head going what is this all about what
90
is this nonsense all about this doesn't even make sense
91
and there's not even an acknowledgement of what really happened the narcissistic parent delivers trauma directly oftentimes the enabling spouse
92
or parent delivers it through passive means neglect standing back
93
and watching helping after the rage or after the abuse
94
and they may have even learned to dissociate detach from
95
that momentary reality in other words they see it happening
96
but they're just not even there they just and then I think
97
so often that is that does happen they've been traumatized they see this trauma with their children
98
and they can just watch it
99
and just not even be present uh consciously you know emotionally uh
100
because if you and i were to have
101
that happen with our children we would be horrified the enabling parent just shuts down just doesn't see it uh
102
and and just goes on with life as though it never happened
103
and that's how they cope the difficulties
104
that they have children who are dependent on them that's the problem
105
and that's where we were this neglect from the non -narcissistic parent often gets internalized into us
106
so not only did all this mess
107
that was happening with the narcissist affect us the patterns thinking
108
emotional dynamics often gets internalized in us we could end up being an enabling parent maybe not to a narcissist
109
but maybe an alcoholic
110
and alcoholism by the way as all addiction is are narcissistic
111
addictions I mean they have you become narcissistic not in a personality disorder
112
but in the syndrome of
113
and the disease of alcoholism drug addiction any addiction has a narcissistic side to it
114
and so if this is what let's say mom was doing dad was a narcissist mom's the enabling
115
and I've had many people have it be reversed mom was the malignant narcissist
116
and dad was just the quiet sit in his chair not do anything about what was going on
117
so we take in from this experience with the enabling parent what's going on they're neglecting themselves,
118
they're neglecting their children and guess what I end up internalizing?
119
I then end up neglecting me.
120
That's the trait I pick up from them.
121
Or I can stand and watch me be abused, misused, shamed and then try to come in after the fact and try to make it better for myself.
122
Or I might tell myself well it's no use i have no power that's again part of
123
that enabling parents dynamic and programming that we receive from the super self
124
and the emotional wi -fi in the family and
125
so then i go i have no power i can't do
126
anything about it anyway my boss i can never talk to him i just completely fold isn't
127
that what the enabling parent did and
128
that i might even tell myself any resistance to others who are treating me badly only makes it worse
129
and so those are some of the dynamics we take in there are many more
130
but those are some of them
131
if you want to know more about getting this toxic family
132
and the toxic parents out of you the narcissist
133
and the enabling parent i hope you'll join the online program mentioned down in the description it's six modules
134
and a year's worth of group sessions with me on a monthly basis.
135
I hope you'll take a look at that.
136
I go into much more detail than I can do in my videos that I put on YouTube.
137
It would take too long and we need to focus on some things.
138
So I would recommend you take advantage of that.
139
Number three, the enabling parent often escapes our awareness
140
and we often do not see the role they played in enabling the family dynamics.
141
So many times what we'll do is demonize the narcissist
142
and deify the enabling parent because that's the only parent that has any kind of something left for us to connect to.
143
And at least she did give me some ice cream.
144
It's not as bad is what dad was doing
145
so then we we may become more blinded about their role in what was happening
146
and by the way my focus nor my desire is for blaming my desire is for awareness
147
and i talk about blaming in the program in the online program and how it's something that we truly want to avoid.
148
Speaking the truth and having awareness and having someone be accountable is not the same thing as blaming.
149
So blaming is not good.
150
These other things are fine.
151
But often what we'll do is we'll be in our own denial and not see how that role played in.
152
This happens especially if the enabling spouse
153
or enabling parent over functions after the fact
154
or they behave codependently they get us ice cream they tuck
155
us in at night they go buy us a gift
156
if they did that now many enabling parents didn't even do
157
that but many times the enabling parent will might try to pick up the pieces might try to comfort us
158
while ignoring the true problem
159
and then there are other enabling parents who just sit there and ignore the true problem and don't even comfort.
160
They just stay out of it like they can stay out of it.
161
Unfortunately, if we're the parents and we're raising children, neither parent can ever stay out of it.
162
It's because we both have a responsibility to the children.
163
Often this parent is a hidden source of anger for those who grew up with narcissistic parents.
164
And they may then only realize later how I really am angry
165
and hurt about what mom did or didn't do or what dad did or didn't do as an enabling parent.
166
And we didn't feel like we even had the right to have those feelings
167
because at least the enabling parent tried a little bit.
168
So we feel guilty about having true feelings about that
169
and then they get stuck in us oftentimes i find in working with families
170
and marriages over the many decades
171
that often there might be more emotional dynamics going on with
172
the non -problem parent than with the problem parent the narcissistic
173
parent he's just out there that's just out there very clear this is much more subtle much more hidden much more
174
you know anything's better than nothing
175
kind of uh thinking that we will have for an enabling parent
176
so what can you do now become more aware of family dynamics
177
that happened to you
178
when you were growing up particularly with an enabling parent who was doing what
179
when how did they react to that what what was done
180
when was it done how was it done and i wouldn't worry
181
so much about why i would just look at what is happening
182
when dad's in a rage what's mom doing where's she at
183
and what she you know is she in baking cookies for
184
everybody after the rage is over you know what was going on
185
and begin to see that because you may have a tendency to do
186
that when the heat goes up in your own life
187
and there's higher anxiety you may go to your kitchen and start making cookies in your own life confront true feelings,
188
which are a residual effect of the family dynamics.
189
How would I really feel about that if that's what was happening?
190
Well, I would feel pretty frustrated or angry or upset about that.
191
I'm not saying I need to go and slash my mother's tires.
192
That's not what I'm saying.
193
I got to deal with it in me.
194
She's her.
195
I can't fix her.
196
I got to deal with me
197
but I want to know my true feelings about it
198
so I can deal with me
199
and then look at how you've picked up the enablers dynamics within you
200
and many times I talk about picking up
201
and being programmed by their emotional location the emotional location where they're at
202
and I'll be talking more about emotional location in the program
203
which means their own self -differentiation how they deal with feelings
204
and thinking how how self -differentiated are they how little are they self -differentiated how much trauma do they have
205
and what are the rules and beliefs that they have that's your emotional location
206
because it will drive how you feel
207
and then often your feelings drive how you think
208
and we want to try to work on reversing
209
that whole process look at what you've picked up from the
210
enabler a propensity to be in denial accepting others abuse smiling
211
while in pain self -neglect trauma bonding complying rebelling or being reactive
212
or shutting down accepting toxic boundaries for self and from others
213
because that's something the enabling parent will do is accept toxic boundaries.
214
There's boundaries in narcissistic families or families with a narcissist. But they're toxic boundaries.
215
For example, don't fight back because it'll only make it worse.
216
That's a toxic boundary.
217
Don't do that.
218
but it's a toxic boundary.
219
Begin to notice when you want to feel, you think.
220
When you want to think, you feel.
221
Because for an enabling parent, they have probably learned to do that and to reverse that.
222
I want to thank you for watching today.
223
I hope you have a great day.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
