  • The narcissistically fragile parent, when his/her needs are frustrated, may have angry outbursts and mistreat his/her child.

    “The narcissistically fragile parent, when his/her needs are frustrated, may have angry outbursts and mistreat his/her child.”

    From Psychoanalytic Interventions with Abusive Parents: An Opportunity for Children’s Mental Health (2022) · cites this paper as [34]

  • Parents who abuse their children suffer from significant narcissistic fragility.

    “Many authors emphasize how parents who abuse their children suffer from significant narcissistic fragility.”

    From Psychoanalytic Interventions with Abusive Parents: An Opportunity for Children’s Mental Health (2022) · cites this paper as [34]

  • The reaction of abusive parents stems from failures and reversals in the early developmental stage of grandiosity because of the parent's inability to engender in the child an initial feeling of omnipotence and gradual disillusions suitable for bearing the frustrations and limitations imposed by reality.

    “Purcell [38], in agreement with Eldridge and Finnican [34], surmises that the reaction of abusive parents stems from failures and reversals in the early developmental stage of grandiosity because of the parent’s inability to engender in the child an initial feeling of omnipotence and gradual disillusions suitable for bearing the frustrations and limitations imposed by reality.”

    From Psychoanalytic Interventions with Abusive Parents: An Opportunity for Children’s Mental Health (2022) · cites this paper as [34]

  • Parents who abuse their children unknowingly wished to become parents for the purpose of finally having someone to maintain their narcissistic balance.

    “Eldridge and Finnican [34] pointed out that parents who abuse their children unknowingly wished to become parents for the purpose of finally having someone to maintain their narcissistic balance; in other words, to support their psychic integrity by supporting their fragile self-esteem.”

    From Psychoanalytic Interventions with Abusive Parents: An Opportunity for Children’s Mental Health (2022) · cites this paper as [34]

  • The personality of the abusive parent exhibits a particular form of developmental disorder in which the child is called upon to play the role of one who must support the narcissistically fragile parent by helping him or her maintain a sense of self.

    “In Eldridge and Finnican’s view, the personality of the abusive parent exhibits a particular form of developmental disorder in which the child, despite him/herself, is called upon to play the role of one who must support the narcissistically fragile parent by helping him or her maintain a sense of self.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
