[quote=Anonymous]Social media created an echo chamber telling people that imperfect parents are all narcissistic abusers and that adult children never have any responsibility to their families. It’s so much easier to cut off your parent and blame them for every single problem you have than it is to accept that life is complicated, unsure, and nuanced. How to be a supportive friend? Just listen. If they are dealing with genuine abuse, validate their emotions. If they’ve bought into the narc nonsense, listen to a point and say something like “I’m glad you trust me enough to share your feelings.”[/quote]
