[|Human|] Hi my name is Beverly. My question is when a narcissist is not empathetic toward others does that mean they are also this way towards their moms and dads too, when the parent express their hurt verbally to their daughter? or does this lack of empathy only happens to other people who are not parents?
[|AI|]  Hi Beverly, A person with Narcissistic Personality Disorder do have the need for constant admiration, and usually a complete lack of empathy toward others. Such people often display snobbish attitude and are often condescending towards others.  If a person is suffering from Narcissistic PD, such behavior will be generalized towards all, including close family members. All said, the lack of empathy isn't part of only narcissistic people and can happen in other personality types too. I would suggest you to talk to the person concerned and may be tried to convince her to meet a psychiatrist. Best wishes.
