The eventual manifestation of codependency is directly connected to early childhood psychological damage perpetrated by a child’s emotional manipulator parent. Emotional manipulators (extreme narcissists) are typically neglectful of their child’s basic emotional needs, as their narcissism prevents them from truly understanding and knowing how to unconditionally love and nurture their children. The child’s ability to successfully cope with his/her parent’s narcissism will transform into an adult codependency.
