Hello, new here (surprise!).
I'm a divorced/single mother with four children. My ex almost certainly has NPD (he thinks anyone who starts to catch on is a quack, so he's not formally diagnosed). Fortunately, the terms of the divorce allowed me to move far away from him, and he has only supervised visitation rights (and has never used them).
Eldest son is adult, out of the house, and starting to exhibit some behaviors that may have been learned from his father.
Middle son, and my youngest two (girl/boy twins) are in high school. Youngest son is currently in counseling and has been diagnosed with depression (and hospitalized once for suicidal ideation, but this is not a current problem).
So, my goals are navigating a relationship with oldest son and doing what is best for youngest son.
