"Narcissism is affecting millions of families nationwide, damaging the children and sometimes destroying the spouses. In an effort to empower the victims, I've spent 7 years with a family headed by a narcissist who eventually released his psychopathic behavior by killing a pet animal. That murder was the final straw for his wife of 27 years. The Perfect Family is a chronicle of the insanity that occurs within a family and between all of its members when a narcissist is in control."Dr. Gangi spoke to a private group of women, mothers worried about their children and for their own safety."As mothers," she said, "you have a duty to protect your children and also your future grandchildren. First, you must protect and heal yourself.""The Perfect Family, Narcissism and a Mother's Love" was released with little fanfare as the author was threatened by a man who believes he is the subject of her book."At first, I was going to release it under a pen name so he couldn't search for my books and find it, but that went against everything I've ever taught. I couldn't come from fear. I had to come from love, and that love is for the victims of tis insidious mental disorder, mostly women and children."
