Quotes by Brenda Stephens  (?)

“A narcissistic mother typically lives in a world that she creates in her mind. She is lost in a fantasy,”
Brenda Stephens, Recovering from Narcissistic Mothers: A Daughter's Guide

“A narcissistic mother will not have the empathy to feel for her child when she uses her child for her own needs. This often manifests in a narcissistic mother’s relationship with her daughter as an enmeshed relationship. The mother has no boundaries with her daughter and burdens her with the emotional turmoil and low self-worth the mother feels (but would never admit).”
Brenda Stephens, Recovering from Narcissistic Mothers: A Daughter's Guide

“Because the stunted narcissist has little emotional intelligence and little tolerance for frustration, she will start to confide in her daughter about her fears. She tells her daughter things she should be telling her romantic partner or another adult. Through this process, she becomes enmeshed with her daughter and does not tolerate any boundaries that her daughter may try to create.”
Brenda Stephens, Recovering from Narcissistic Mothers: A Daughter's Guide
