What Makes a PSYCHOPATH PARENT | (Identifying Toxic Parents) In 9 Ways |Psychotherapy Crash Course

***TRIGGER WARNING

Who wants to believe that they have a psychopathic parent?

Who wants to accept that they may never have a "normal" parent to run to when needed?

I honor and respect GOOD parents. NO ONE wants to be faced with the reality that their mother or father is incapable of normal human emotion. It's a shock to the heart and mind to find out that your parent may be a psychopath.
Most research suggests that psychopaths are born and that many life experiences have a way of "strengthening" the psychopath so that they can become the un-emotional and callous individuals they are.

In this video, I discuss the characteristics of psychopaths and narrow the focus to parents.

*All of the behaviors discussed in this video occur together -- like a syndrome -- and rarely occur alone. For example, some parents may do the things discussed in this video but that does not NECESSARILY mean they are psychopaths.

It's so sad but some parents are COMPLETE psychopaths and there is NOTHING that can be done to change them. It's a sad reality for some families.

[MsThe]

A parent that projects their own uglyness onto you, a parent that takes blatant advantage of your emotional dependence on them, a parent that enjoys hurting you, watching you cry, a parent that shows a totally different face to the rest of the world is a psychopathic parent.
The worst of all, a parent that trains you to become like them and then cries victim.

[jantelopez]

why aren't ALL parents assessed for psychopathy .. they do need to be identified just because they have different needs but most of all because THEY ARE INCAPABLE OF CARING FOR A CHILD

[xrc]

"Very depraved of morality"

Well, my dad, besides being physically, mentally and emotionally abusive, also viewed me as his second wife and would treat me like a jealous bf, so yes, they're very depraved.

[darkskinisalwaysin]

I think a lot of them like to hide behind religion too; it gives them a sense of power.

[aljazkolar]

my father was definetly psychopath. Every emotion on the inside of me was considered a problem to get destroyed. And he was like a robot

[xkero]

My mom is a psychopath. I'm a dark empath, but I don't use it for bad, I use it more to protect myself. So luckily, I'm able to tell immediately what my mom's trying to do. I've recently found out how to annoy her, too. I only annoy her to the point she stops completely and leaves. Because I don't feel like being around her, and as her 13 year old child, that's disappointing to say, but it's true. That's why it sounds like I'm talking like that's my enemy or friend I'm annoyed of. Because I don't see her as a mother anymore.

[SSMITH-sofn]

I am a man, and my mother is very emotionally distant from me constant character assassination , but she is very caring to outsiders, so people think her slander of my person is well deserved. i am amazed how many women she has as flying monkeys, i rarely deal with women

[Heyokasirenieisxso]

my parents are the criminal version, thank you for saying what a mother is supposed to be like they had me thinking im crazy in those regards. my mom the other day said i had no empathy for her after telling me to die of aids

[AdamantlyAdams]

Oh boy! The good news is that, I'm learning what I experienced as a child. When I compile everything, my mother and her deceased husband are psychopaths. And, their friends, and my uncle are not functioning adults. Afterwards I wonder, where is the love? When it comes down to it, It's my duty to meet my mother's needs and realities. As a result, now, I know know who my opponents are and what they're doing. Thanks to you Tamara for this one here! I love turning over every stone to find out why it was so horrible. That's to my advantage 😂😊

[samanthamarshall]

You made so many points that describe my mother to a "T". I am 41 and an only child, I have been crushed by mother through out my life. Almost like being in an abusive relationship. The constant push and pull of emotions, her making feel confused or even crazy at times. Her laughing at my heart break. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos.

[itsYourChance]

My mom used to to have me locked up in mental facilities for teens....but i was running from her. She needed to be locked up. Shes done so much.not criminal.but crazy still but still so smart and plays it off as if shes dumb. Shes a leader in a church but she's crazy.but its a mask. Shes caused me pain and manipulative ways. I feel ashamed to say. It shouldnt be so. I have no mother. She used to try to lose me in stores as a little girl. I would never do what shes done to me.. to my kids. Shes competitive. Always needs be heard seen loud annoying on purpose. Hates men. Doesnt want her kids to find love or success. Shes not diagnosed.shes avoided counseling..but always sentme to it. Those counselors told me something is wrong with her. She laughs at pain. Or smirks!!!! If we are happy and laughing, she hates when we all laugh at funny things. Shes a stalker...to me.. her eyes pop out ifu ever tell her no thank u to anything she offers. I swear what she offers is cursed literally.. she scares me

[suzsiz]

My mom has psychopatic traits. She has gotten Worse with age, getting paranoid and schizo traits and also more aggressive. Really sad😢 I want her to be admitted to psych ward but she refuses help becus «there’s nothing wrong with her» No self-reflection. 🙄 My Dad has gotten a restraining order against her.

[catherineharber]

Thank you so much Támara for your integrity on addressing the uncomfortable truth that some of the white collar professionals are psychopaths.

My dad was a respected attorney and knew how to win over the approval of the community while being depraved to his spouse and children behind closed doors. Thankfully, I made the decision to sever ties from him a decade ago, and my life has run much smoother.

[darkangel]

It's a harsh reality to accept.
That they have no empathy

[ellakramar]

My father is like that. Emotionally distant, gets bored easily. Angry hyper at the drop of a hat. He beat our school psychologist once. He beat his manager at work. Criticizing everyone. He cant take criticism himself. Has no boundaries..cast me to the wind...

[energylikeeliza]

thank you for making this video. it confirmed everything i thought about my father. he was granted custody right before i turned 13, even though my mom had come forward for years with evidence of my sister and i being a***ed abused by him and his son. he convinced everyone she had brainwashed us and i am now going to physical therapy for pelvic floor dysfunction and remembering everything. this put so many dots together, especially about how he has treated me coldly, angrily, and neglected me for so many years after claiming he was the keeper of peace. i cannot thank you enough.

[Homoclite]

I gotta get my head right for this one! And remember NOT to type a huge essay! This is going to be REALLY good!

[darkangel]

I feel this is whats hapoening to me. I have no emotional supportive ppl, i feel so alone and sad, hardened, by fact that theyre like this.

[wiyxgyo]

It’s hard for me to remember my moms ex boyfriend, even though he was the one who around me basically 16-24 hours per day from ages 6-13. My mom was a traveling medical sales rep with a territory of all of northern and central California (Reno to Bakersfield to San Francisco to a Crescent City). She only slept at home half the time or less. She moved this guy she barely knew (he was her waiter in Reno basically) in with us and immediately left me alone with him all the time from 6-12. She dated a lot of other guys after my dad died (and left me with my grandparents all the time) before this guy moved in. She someone settled on this creep. He was highly impulsive grandiose parasitic and abusive he would have her buy him all sorts of cars motorcycles and other toys. But I honestly cannot remember much of anything that happened when I was home or when I was around him. At first, he isolated me from other kids except going to school. Before, I spent a lot of time with my grandparents. But he isolated me and my mom from family. He made me do all the household chores, made me jog every weekend with him (he ran and did sone fun-run type competitive races). He threw out all my toys and other things, and that’s just the things I will mention. He was irrationally violent and he kept me in a state of constant terror. Later on, he pawned me off on babysitters after school so he had time to do god knows what. He started going to college 3 hours away, had a few short-lived jobs, and was cheating in my mom a lot apparently. Most things that happened are fuzzy or a complete black hole. I only remember bits and pieces of things before age 13.
