Dysfunctional Families

Co-parenting with a narcissist is relentless. You can’t change them, but you can change how you respond—and that makes all the difference. If you’ve ended a relationship with a narcissist (or plan to), you know they won’t suddenly become a cooperative, empathetic parent. Though free from their direct control, their manipulation and gaslighting can continue—primarily through your children. They may sabotage your parenting, manipulate your kids, or fight for custody despite lacking true commitment.

Have you ever felt stuck in the same toxic cycles—self-doubt, unhealthy relationships, or negative thoughts that just won’t go away? Maybe you don’t think of yourself as toxic, but sometimes, in certain situations, you notice behaviors you’re not proud of. You’re not alone. And most importantly—you’re not doomed to stay this way. This book isn’t about judging yourself or others. It’s about understanding where toxic patterns come from, how they take root, and how to finally let them go so you can build a life that feels lighter, healthier, and more fulfilling.

Mandeville uses her research findings on what she named "Family Scapegoating Abuse" (FSA) to help survivors recognize and release the damaging "scapegoat" narrative associated with the family "identified patient" role.

At its core, gaslighting is a deliberate and repeated attempt to distort the truth in an effort to erode the victim's confidence in their own judgment. Examples of manipulation that may be used to support the gaslighter's tale include trivializing sentiments, rejecting facts, or changing facts to support the deception. It is common for victims to feel confused, anxious, and the desire to justify their interactions with the manipulator.
