Do you have a b*tch mum & a beta dad? Watch this...

My thoughts on the implications of having an alpha-like mother and beta-like father and how this relates to you ending up in relationships with dysfunctional people. More videos on this subject to come, but wanted to start off with this introduction and get the ball rolling for some discussion in the comments below. This seems to be a common pattern amongst the people that I counsel, who find themselves in friendships and relationships with traumatised BPD sufferers, they often have a "bitch mum and beta dad" (as one of my clients coined it.)

If this video speaks to your situation and you would like to talk it through, have a look at my counselling and coaching sessions or email me at melanieprsvp@gmail.com. New videos come out on my YouTube channel — subscribe so you don't miss them.
