Barrister Nicholas Anderson shares his views on Narcissism - Part Three

Narcissists in Divorce: The Narcissist Trap - A podcast by Dr Supriya McKenna

Categories:

In this episode, London family law barrister Nicholas Anderson, Narcissism expert Dr Supriya McKenna  and UK solicitor Karin Walker discuss the issue of parental alienation - and how it is used by narcissistic parents as a means to punish their former spouse. Nick explains why the court is not the best place to deal with cases such as these, and Karin explains why arbitration is a much safer method to use where a narcissist is involved, where an adjudicative decision has to made regarding the children because the parents cannot agree. They discuss the important issue of how family solicitors representing a narcissist find themselves perpetuating the narcissist's abuse of their spouse, and the simple way to prevent this from happening - and how shortsighted they will find an approach like this to be when they themselves become the victim of the narcissist's abuse. They also delve into the difficult arena of relocation cases, where the non narcissistic parent wishes to move area with the children, but the narcissist blocks it. Finally, they reiterate the importance of education for judges and family lawyers, who first need to understand that NPD is a real diagnosable disorder, before becoming able to recognise the behaviours and the serious implications that it has for families in separation and divorce.
