Recognizing the Signs of Emotional Enmeshment
Emotional enmeshment is an unhealthy relationship between a parent and child, where the child becomes a surrogate partner. It is different from normal closeness and can involve inappropriate boundaries and a transactional form of love. Signs of emotional enmeshment include oversharing of intimate details, discussing romantic or sexual topics with the child, and the child feeling like a sexualized boyfriend or girlfriend to the parent. This phenomenon is more common than people realize, and becoming aware of these signs can help individuals identify if they have experienced emotional enmeshment in their own lives.
