Hi,
I am a step mom to a narc teen. I thought I was doing a good thing, the right thing to try to take care of her and be her parent; she has been with me for 6 years. Her dad left 3 months ago. But I can't do this anymore.
So I am always waiting for the next crisis. She lies and she cannot not lie. So even the goodness of wanting to be her parent, I cannot do, because I am not going to be able to heal. She smiles while she lies and when I am upset and just looks at me and lies. So after I thought I was on the road to healing from her Narc dad, I realize I am still dealing with the same gas lighting and agenda behavior. I have file to get legal custody of her but
I am going to have to remove her out of my life because I cannot heal and do not feel safe in my own house. Her dad is a narc and he had been physically violent to her and me before leaving. I have given everything of me . How do I reconcile this?
