  What is going on, beautiful people?
• 0:02
  Today we are answering the question, why do narcissists
• 0:06
  have children? Why do narcissists that have
• 0:09
  kids? Tough one if you're new here, My
• 0:11
  name is Lee Hammock. I'm a clinically diagnosed
• 0:13
  narcissist and welcome to episode 985 of the Narcissist
• 0:17
  Code. Boom.
• 0:35
  Welcome back. Welcome back.
• 0:35
  Welcome back. So yeah, this is a tough one.
• 0:39
  Y'all. This is a tough, tough.
• 0:40
  This is a tail episode right here.
• 0:42
  Not tough an aspect that I I can't get through it because I'm
• 0:45
  going to be highly emotional. But it's a tough episode because
• 0:48
  I know people are going to see the description or to see the
• 0:50
  title, to see the thumbnail and be like, well, Lee is just
• 0:54
  ableist or yeah, people will conjure up anything they want to
• 0:58
  conjure up just based on the thumbnail and they'll just be
• 1:00
  talking. I know how people are, but
• 1:02
  that's not how this is, you know, that's not how this video
• 1:04
  is going to be. That's not how the video is
• 1:06
  going to be about Like, this is literally, somebody put a
• 1:09
  comment in my comment section yesterday and asked me the
• 1:11
  question, why do narcissists have kids?
• 1:14
  You know, because a lot of people, let's start off with
• 1:16
  this right here. A lot of people don't think that
• 1:20
  narcissists have the ability to love anybody but themselves.
• 1:23
  A lot of people don't think that narcissists can love anybody
• 1:26
  else other than themselves. So why bother having kids if you
• 1:29
  cannot love your kids? So that's where my mindset comes
• 1:33
  in, that right there. But the difference in how my
• 1:35
  mind works is that I do think that narcissists can love their
• 1:38
  children. You know, I sometimes I I just,
• 1:39
  I did a video very recently about can narcissists love their
• 1:43
  children. And that's the first thing that
• 1:44
  I said. Sometimes narcissists only love
• 1:46
  the kids, sometimes narcissists only care about the kids.
• 1:50
  I don't think that narcissists have enough emotions to go
• 1:53
  around, enough, you know, positive emotions to go around.
• 1:57
  I describe it as limited emotional capacity.
• 2:00
  So narcissists do have the ability to love people, but not
• 2:04
  everybody that's going to get that love.
• 2:05
  Not everybody's going to get that affection.
• 2:07
  Not everybody's going to get the care and the kindness and the
• 2:10
  compassion from that narcissist or toxic person, you know what
• 2:13
  I'm saying? So narcissists, some narcissists
• 2:16
  have kids because they want kids, because they want to have
• 2:20
  a family. They want to love their
• 2:21
  children, they want to try to raise them up.
• 2:23
  It doesn't mean that's how it's always going to be.
• 2:26
  Let me say that right there. Just because they have kids,
• 2:28
  because they love, they think they love the kids or they have
• 2:30
  to benefit, they love kids, doesn't mean that they're going
• 2:33
  to be great parents. Let's just say that, you know,
• 2:35
  and that goes for anybody, not just narcissists, but
• 2:38
  narcissists in particular who we talk about.
• 2:39
  It's like just because they have children doesn't mean they're
• 2:42
  going to, that they're going to be exceptional parents, you
• 2:45
  know, because in my video I made about narcissists love of their
• 2:49
  children, some people say they, a lot of people agree with me.
• 2:51
  They were just like, yeah, my narcissistic partner, it only
• 2:54
  only cares about the kids. My narcissistic partner only
• 2:57
  does things for the kids. My narcissistic partner only
• 3:00
  does this. My narcissistic partner only
• 3:02
  says this. It became like they only do
• 3:04
  things for the children. So narcissist.
• 3:06
  Some narcissists have kids because they love their kids.
• 3:10
  They think that they have enough love to give and whatnot.
• 3:14
  They they they have enough love to go around to be able to care
• 3:16
  for children and have a family and things like that.
• 3:18
  But a lot of times it doesn't work out that way because they
• 3:21
  end up neglecting their kids, they end up neglecting their
• 3:23
  partner and they also end up neglecting themselves, which
• 3:26
  leads to kids being raised in traumatic households or kids
• 3:29
  being raised in, you know, in emotionally turbulent household
• 3:33
  and things like that, situations like that.
• 3:35
  So that happens quite a bit within these spaces.
• 3:38
  That's what I'm just telling people.
• 3:39
  Like some narcissists have kids because they love their kids.
• 3:43
  You know, they they they have, they won't do.
• 3:45
  They want to have a family. They want to love, They want to
• 3:47
  give love. You know, they want to, they
• 3:51
  want to give the love that they might not have received when
• 3:54
  they were growing up. So there's a lot of narcissists
• 3:57
  themselves come from toxic households, right?
• 4:00
  So I if I come from a toxic household, then I might have a
• 4:04
  toxic mindset. You see what I'm saying?
• 4:06
  If I myself am coming from a toxic household, then I might
• 4:09
  have the mindset of a toxic person.
• 4:11
  You know, I might have the thought process of a toxic
• 4:13
  person and like, I might feel neglected as a kid.
• 4:16
  So I, you know, I'm neglected as a child, right?
• 4:21
  So I want to be able, I want to correct the mistakes of my past.
• 4:24
  Does it always work out that way?
• 4:26
  No. We always know.
• 4:28
  I'm not laughing because it's funny, but it doesn't always
• 4:29
  work out that way. They want to correct the
• 4:31
  mistakes of their past. They want to give the love that
• 4:33
  they didn't receive. They want to raise a kid in a
• 4:37
  way that they were not raised. But does it work out their way
• 4:39
  out of time? No, no, it doesn't always work
• 4:41
  out that way. You know, people's goals shifts,
• 4:43
  people's behaviors shift and whatnot.
• 4:47
  Another reason why narcissists do have children is this is
• 4:52
  probably the reason a lot of people we know right here is to
• 4:55
  trap people. Some narcissists cannot love
• 4:58
  their kids. They do not want to give love to
• 5:00
  kids. They think they see kids as, you
• 5:03
  know, access. They see kids as keys.
• 5:06
  You know both both They see they see their they see their kids as
• 5:10
  keys to access keys to access somebody else's life.
• 5:14
  You simply say keys that remain in somebody else's life in some
• 5:17
  way shape or form. They both there.
• 5:19
  So both of those words start with the word K, the letter K
• 5:22
  kids and keys. They see their kids as keys.
• 5:24
  So they they have kids to trap people quote UN quote trap.
• 5:29
  I know trapping is, you know, it depends on how what your it
• 5:32
  depends on what your thought process is.
• 5:34
  But not everybody can get trapped or whatever.
• 5:36
  But, you know, but they use kids as a reason to trap you, the
• 5:40
  reason to keep you there, a reason to show you that, show
• 5:42
  you that they love you. You know, not even to have kids
• 5:46
  that care about kids. They have kids to show you that
• 5:50
  they care about you. You see what I'm saying?
• 5:52
  They just have those kids in order to keep you here, in order
• 5:55
  to keep you around, in order to be here for you.
• 5:58
  That's what happens to a lot of these toxic, narcissistic
• 6:00
  relationships. They want to keep you around,
• 6:03
  even even if they don't want kids.
• 6:06
  They have kids to keep you around to, to have that access
• 6:09
  to you at all times. And that's why you I talked to
• 6:12
  so many people that have this back and forth story of going
• 6:16
  back and forth with their toxic partner because of the kids.
• 6:19
  Like like are they good parents at least?
• 6:21
  Like, no, they're horrible parents.
• 6:22
  But me and them, we're always going back and forth and when I
• 6:26
  get discarded or I break it with them, the kids are the first
• 6:29
  thing to go. They they would no longer want
• 6:30
  their relationship with the children either.
• 6:33
  So that happens all the time. That happens within these
• 6:36
  spaces. That happens within these
• 6:37
  dynamics. So I'm just telling you, if
• 6:39
  you're dealing with a narcissistic person, some
• 6:41
  narcissist will have kids just only to remain in their kids
• 6:45
  life. You see what I'm saying?
• 6:47
  To remain in your life, to have access to you, they don't have
• 6:50
  any interest in parenting. They want to use the kids,
• 6:53
  leverage that type of stuff out there.
• 6:54
  Kids end up being leverage points.
• 6:56
  I'm going to use a kid to stay in your life.
• 6:59
  They don't care about the kids. They don't, They don't have any
• 7:01
  intent on being there for the kids.
• 7:03
  They just use the kids as a reason to stay within your life.
• 7:06
  They stay within your space. And that happens quite a bit.
• 7:08
  Y'all understand that. You definitely get it a lot.
• 7:11
  A lot of you have been in been in this space right here where
• 7:15
  you definitely understand that narcissists have kids because
• 7:19
  you know, just they want to trap you.
• 7:21
  They want it like, oh, I'm and this happens a lot.
• 7:24
  You know, I'm baby. I'm baby daddy #8 or 7.
• 7:29
  You know. Yeah.
• 7:30
  No, no, no, no, no, wait, wait. I mean, I I think I might have
• 7:33
  did that backwards. No.
• 7:34
  But sometimes that happens too, though, from the from the
• 7:36
  woman's side of things. A woman can have a kid with a a
• 7:40
  narcissistic woman can have a kid with a man to remain in that
• 7:43
  man's life to have access to that man.
• 7:46
  And a man can do the same thing, you know, to the to a woman.
• 7:49
  So they just in that space right there and they can use the kids
• 7:52
  as levers. They can threaten to take the
• 7:53
  kids from you. They can threaten to take you to
• 7:55
  court. It just becomes keys to torture
• 7:57
  you with. They don't have any emotional
• 7:59
  connection to the kids. They just have the kids.
• 8:01
  You know, the kids are a result of us sleeping together and
• 8:05
  whatnot. I'll also say this as well.
• 8:10
  Another reason, y'all. Another reason that narcissists
• 8:15
  have kids is because it makes them feel normal.
• 8:20
  Not because they love the kids, not because they care about the
• 8:22
  kids. It's what you A lot of
• 8:24
  narcissists have identity crisis, right?
• 8:27
  Like, we feel like we don't fit into society.
• 8:30
  We don't know what normalcy looks like.
• 8:32
  So when we are mirroring other people, what does it look like?
• 8:35
  Right? What is it?
• 8:36
  What? You know?
• 8:37
  What do other people have? What makes it?
• 8:39
  What? What makes other people look
• 8:41
  normal? What makes other people look
• 8:44
  normal? Getting married, Having kids.
• 8:48
  So a lot of some narcissists will absolutely just have kids
• 8:51
  because it makes them look like a normal human being.
• 8:54
  It makes them look like a normal person.
• 8:56
  Yeah, quote UN quote, normal person.
• 8:59
  It makes them feel like they fit into society.
• 9:01
  Hey, I got kids. I'm a person.
• 9:03
  Hey, I'm a human being. I'm not an outlier.
• 9:05
  I'm not an alien. I'm a person with feelings.
• 9:07
  I'm a I'm a human being. They have kids just to fit into
• 9:12
  society. And this is like, I just did a
• 9:14
  video very recently about some narcissists have kids.
• 9:18
  I mean, get married to fit in. The same thing applies to why
• 9:21
  they have Some of them have kids.
• 9:23
  They just have kids because they want to fit into society.
• 9:25
  Hey, look, I'm a parent. I'm a human being.
• 9:28
  I'm AI have kids. So I'm a person.
• 9:30
  Look at me. Look at me.
• 9:31
  Look at me. You know what I mean?
• 9:33
  Look at me. I'm a human.
• 9:36
  I'm. I am not a narcissistic robot.
• 9:39
  I created life. So I cannot be a robot.
• 9:44
  Do you understand me? But that happens too, though.
• 9:51
  They just deal with they deal with the fit in.
• 9:52
  And I would say this right here. I'm gonna leave y'all with this
• 9:55
  last reason right here. I know there could be some other
• 9:57
  reasons. Why do y'all think narcissists
• 9:58
  have kids? Leave some reasons in the
• 10:00
  comment section as well. Let's have a discussion in the
• 10:02
  comment section. But I think another reason
• 10:05
  narcissists have kids is for money.
• 10:08
  Some people see kids as money. Financial things, you know,
• 10:12
  financial beings. These kids bring money into my
• 10:15
  life. Are you?
• 10:16
  You see what I'm saying? They bring money into my life in
• 10:19
  some way, shape or form. And this can go on both sides of
• 10:22
  the dynamic. From a narcissistic woman or
• 10:24
  from a narcissistic man, you know, and especially if y'all
• 10:28
  haven't, if you have a kid by a bum narcissistic person, they
• 10:31
  refuses to work or whatever and you work and you take care of
• 10:34
  the kids and stuff like that. And then you like, I'm, I'm sick
• 10:36
  and tired of this. I'm getting divorced and you
• 10:39
  making money. Like y'all they will a crowd
• 10:42
  here that's seen this story happening before.
• 10:43
  They will take you for spousal support and now they have an
• 10:46
  income. You see, do you see do you see
• 10:51
  It's it's wildest money is involved in the thought process
• 10:54
  of why some narcissists have kids.
• 10:55
  Y'all so that's wildest. I hope y'all got some.
• 10:59
  You know, if you have kids, buy narcissists.
• 11:01
  I do have my children's book. Remember, it's not your fault.
