Breaking Free from Narcissistic Abuse
My Ex is Blaming Me For His Broken Relationships With Our Kids
“Why does my ex always blame me when the kids want nothing to do with him?”
This week’s Fan Mail comes from a listener in Rochester, New York, who writes about the heartbreak of watching her children pull away from their abusive father, only to be blamed for it.
Her ex insists she’s turned the kids against him, while his family defends him as “such a good man” who’s “done so much for us.”
In this episode, Dr. Kerry explains how emotionally immature and abusive individuals deflect accountability, making others feel guilty for the natural consequences of their own harmful behavior.
