(By Hella Ahmed) People with no real knowledge in psychology shouldn’t be using the term “narcissism” to make absurd explanations about births. It’s naïve to generalize and associate “narcissism” with not having children, out of place:

First of all a lot of people can’t have kids and would love to. That being said, a lot of narcissists indeed have many kids whom they see as extensions of themselves promoting their financial success and “sense of sacrifice”. And sometimes, it’s even worse, they use them as an excuse to abuse others because the intent is said to be the need to greatly provide for their own kids, even teaming up with people hurting others’ children on some level.

Many narcissists use their kids as a cover up to trigger sympathy after they messed up in some way, and the worst are those using them as human shields during times of conflict. Very rich narcissists have many kids they don’t spend much time with, counting on one of them to one day become their loyal caregiver when they are old and vulnerable, endangered by their condition.

Also, a lot of people don’t want kids because they can’t afford to give them a good life or because they choose to give the best to their future children and they are working on it, or trying to, being billeted and ripped off by narcissists with many children they can provide for. Romantic love is not the priority when you want a good life, it’s succeeding professionally to be able to provide for yourself and back up your plans of happiness and having a family if you are harbouring the desire to have babies. You can’t be counting on luck to bring you love and money so you can have a good life and a family.
