OK,I'll bite!
There are quite a few assumptions being made, none of which is accurate. I understand narcissistic abuse perfectly, as my mother is a Narc, in many ways like AE, although she is not on Social media and she has marginally less of a potty mouth. I still have light contact with her, but less so when she is in one of her rages. My father is a heavy drinker, with a tendency towards violence (including towards me, in my early teens.) He is also a serial adulterer, and left my mother when I was 17 for a younger woman, with whom he went on to have more children. These children were taken into care, and I gave evidence in court against my own father. I have not had any contact with him since I was a young trainee solicitor. I am not surprised that I chose my particular field of law in my profession.
If anyone should be triggered, it probably should include me, however I have never responded like that. I can be very forthright and say what I think. When my dad hit me I hit him back. When he belittled me I stuck up for myself, my brothers and my mother from a young age.
My earlier posts were a clinical explanation of the law as I understand it in the UK. I repeatedly said "could" not "should". There are many ways that he could return to the house if he wanted to, none of which would mean he should go alone. Arrangements can be made with the authorities in advance and with the support of others. Some don't agree, but that is your perogative.
I have zero respect for narcissists and I treat them with the contempt they deserve and I refuse to live my life in fear of them, or to allow them to infringe my rights or those of my children.This is my way of dealing with it, I suppose. I confront, and take no prisoners.
As a lawyer my role is to advise and represent in court and apply evidence to establish the facts. I am not a social worker or a therapist, and the law can be cold and clinical at times. I find that fairly comforting. I apply UK law to achieve the desired outcome for my social worker clients. I provide the legal advice, they plan and implement. I don't tell them how to carry out a task like going round to a house with a police officer to remove a child. I just tell them how to lawfully go about it and obtain the order they need. UK social workers would always try to place a child with the other parent or a family member, rather than Foster care when it is safe to do so.
Does that make me a flying monkey? That made me laugh out loud! It was just me, saying what I thought on a discussion forum. I am on twitter and I can see what AE posts (and others) but I do not post on twitter very much, and it tends to be on legal twitter, not to feed the narcissistic supply of Alive Evans.
Although I am saddened that some felt triggered please understand that not everyone reacts in the same way. I saw a reference to "IG hate" and I must have missed that, I didn't see any of that in my posts or others. The closest thing to that in my post was that he should "grow a pair". That may sound harsh, but it was born out of my own reaction to dealing with narcissists, with zero respect and zero fear. I am not saying others are wrong, but it is not how I have survived this far.
