  Narcissistic Mothers and Their Children &lt;br&gt; By Sam Vaknin &lt;br&gt; Author of &amp;quot;Malignant Self Love - Narcissism Revisited&amp;quot; &lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;Interview granted to Samantha Cleaver for YourTango.com &lt;br&gt; Q. What are some common ways that a mother&#39;s narcissism can affect her daughter&#39;s relationships? &lt;br&gt; A. Depends on how narcissistic the mother is. Narcissistic parents fail to recognize and accept the personal autonomy and boundaries of their offspring. They treat them as instruments of gratification or extensions of themselves. Their love is conditioned on the &amp;quot;performance&amp;quot; of their children and on how well they cater to the needs, wishes, and priorities of the parent.

  QUIZ: Who is This Politician? HINT: Not who you think! &lt;br&gt; He was born to a part of the population that was often despised and mocked by the majority. &lt;br&gt; He was &amp;quot;abandoned&amp;quot; by his parents early on in his life. &lt;br&gt; He spent his formative years abroad, outside his country. &lt;br&gt; He never accomplished anything of note before he became the leader of his party (in his late thirties) and the ruler of his country (in his mid-forties).
