These parents are focused on their own lives, often putting their needs above their children’s. They may be busy with their careers, social lives, or romantic relationships, leaving little time or attention for their kids. While they might not mean to harm their children, their actions create a sense of neglect, forcing the children to take care of themselves emotionally and sometimes even physically.
Children of selfish parents often feel neglected and unimportant, leading to low self-esteem and emotional insecurity.
