In contrast, parenting styles characterized by high control (
especially psychological control) but low acceptance, and those that are specifically low in firm control, are associated with externalizing behaviors (Forehand & Nousiainen, 1993; Steinberg, Lamborn, Darling, Mounts, & Dornbusch, 1994).
Without a protective separation — unless we can first protect the child from the manipulative
psychological control of the narcissistic / (borderline) parent — no form therapy will solve the pathology, including and
especially a mythical form of therapy in which the therapist is just making stuff up («reunification therapy»).
