The Responsibility of Immediate Family Members

by Kathy Krajco

If you are a member of a narcissist's immediate family, what are your responsibilities to other potential victims?

Some things to think about.

In some jobs, a narcissist can do an awful lot of damage. For example, as a teacher or a police officer, or President-for-Life.

In nearly any job, a narcissist will trash the character and job performance of their betters. That lifelong trail of destruction in a narcissist's wake is populated mostly with lives he or she ruined outside their immediate family. They get people fired. And even blackballed. They create such awful rumors that the victim ends up a divorced pariah, whom no one wants anything to do with.

And they climb.

Is it your responsibility to make it your business to know what they're doing at work?

And if they do climb to top by tearing others down, can you justly reap the rewards of their ill-got gain?

In fact, this is the actual context of the remark Jesus of Nazareth made when he said that lewd conduct was a special case, calling for separation/divorce despite Jewish law.

Many brothers, sisters, and spouses of narcissists think the narcissist won't do it to them - that he or she won't destroy THEIR whole life and career. When the narcissist then does, they wish they hadn't looked the other way while he did it to others.

My last straw came when my

My last straw came when my husbands secretary called me and told me about the abusive way he was treating her. I called a lawyer that day, filed, served him at work and it was over. I had a contact who was recruiting African-americans for jobs in the government. I put the two togeether and the secretary got a great job and she did such a good job for her agency that she ended up a regional director with her own home. She used to send me cards every year with her progress. he ended up a loser. I think users and abusers often end up losers.

That's Karma!

Karma at it's finest. I love it that the secretary ended up in a really good position and he's still a loser. Isn't it interesting that we will take so much crap from the N, but when they abuse someone else, that's when it really ruffles our feathers. And especially you with N's children, you are like mama lions, and that is a good thing!
