He was supposed to be a father. Instead, he was the storm.
What happens when the person meant to protect you becomes the one you need protection from? In The Wrong Kind of Son, Jeff Peace delivers a breathtaking true account of life inside a home ruled by narcissistic control, psychological manipulation, and conditional love.
Behind the smiling family photos was a house where silence was demanded, fear was currency, and every moment could turn volatile without warning. Words were weapons. Love was leverage. And obedience was the only form of safety.
From the earliest memories of being shamed for showing emotion to the years of walking on eggshells just to survive, Jeff traces how a child's natural innocence slowly erodes under constant gaslighting and emotional warfare. Yet this is not a story told in bitterness-it's told with clarity, courage, and hope.
As the years pass, Jeff learns what it means to finally say no:
In choosing distance, he finds the space to heal-and the strength to give his own daughter something radically different: a father who shows up, listens, and loves without conditions.
The Wrong Kind of Son is raw, unflinching, and ultimately redemptive. It explores not just the cost of surviving a narcissistic parent but the profound work of breaking the cycle. It asks what healing really looks like when the apology never comes-and what it means to build peace from the ruins of someone else's control.
Readers will recognize echoes of Educated, The Glass Castle, and I'm Glad My Mom Died in the book's fearless honesty and emotional depth. But Jeff Peace's voice is distinctly his own: compassionate, precise, and filled with the quiet power of a survivor who has done the hard work of transformation.
"Every insult was a lesson in control. Every silence was a punishment. Every escape, a rebirth."
This memoir will resonate deeply with anyone who: • Grew up under the influence of a narcissistic or emotionally abusive parent • Struggled to reconcile loyalty with self-preservation • Has ever gone no-contact to reclaim peace • Believes that love can be redefined and rebuilt
Through short, vivid chapters that read like memories you can feel, Peace paints both the devastation and the deliverance of surviving a home like his. His journey proves that forgiveness is optional-but freedom is not.
For readers of memoirs about narcissistic abuse, family trauma, and personal rebirth, The Wrong Kind of Son offers both validation and vision: validation for the pain you endured, and a vision of the life waiting on the other side of survival.
For anyone ready to believe that peace is possible after the storm.

- No to rewriting history to keep the peace.
- No to inherited guilt and generational lies.
- No to pretending abuse is love.
