Si l'expression des enfants et des adolescents s'est développée depuis une ou deux générations, leur capacité à mettre en commun s'est appauvrie considérablement.

I wrote this book for anyone else who is suffering at the hands of a malignant narcissist. I want to offer not only healing words but also guide you through understanding the disorder in order to better help you deal with it.
