who seek emotional fuel at any cost -
positive fuel includes demanding worship and admiration rather than true friendship,
while negative fuel includes demeaning and sabotaging those around them to feel more powerful.

Anyway, right now, I felt the need to put this worry somewhere.

Yes, get it out and talk about it here!

You are smart (in many ways) and to know these people were very wounded early on...it is a fascinating, incurable disorder.
Why?
Because in their early brain development normal, healthy synapses did NOT even grow together!
Think an innocent baby/toddler crying... instead of being hugged is screamed at and left in a dark room with a dirty diaper.
Think of the Rhesus Monkeys that died from just having NO physical contact...see?

The behavior described very well could be *Borderline Personality Disorder...
often confused or in conjunction with narcissism...no matter,
it's a tough situation.

Hopefully, at 14, before any trouble happens, your son will see for himself
the screwy situation he may have entered!!
You can always pray and show him what a loving, healthy family feels like.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru
