Narcissistic Personality Disorder in the Family Court

While divorce can bring out the worst in a healthy person, a divorce involving someone with NPD is like inviting the devil herself onto the battlefield. The narcissist appears to be charming, charismatic and endearing to those whom she encounters yet outside of the courtroom, she is calculated, manipulative and many times, downright dangerous. The untrained observer may perceive the situation to be about two immature parents who are not capable of putting their children first. But this is NOT always the reality.

This door swings both ways, NPD men are just as awful in these situations. It's abhorrent.

I'm going to chime in to agree, as others have pointed out, that anyone can be a narcissist. I browse a number of groups for people who deal with narcissists on a regular basis (which is usually a parent or a spouse). They range on a spectrum from frequently irritating to dangerously psychopathic. They inflict incalculable misery on their family and "friends" and say "I love you" while they do it.

Needless to say, be they male or female, a narcissist is going to manipulate the system any way they think they can because they truly lack empathy for others. They coldly manipulate human beings like lifeless objects.
