Narcissists are addicted to narcissistic suppy.
Narcissistic Supply (NS) includes attention, fame, notoriety, adulation, fear, applause, approval. It is a mixed bag. If the narcissist gets attention -- positive or negative -- it constitutes NS. If he can manipulate people or influence them -- positively or negatively -- it qualifies as NS.
Even quarrelling with people constitutes NS. Perhaps not the fighting itself -- but the ability to influence other people, to induce feelings in them, to manipulate them emotionally, to make them do something or refrain from doing it.

I am sure that it would depend on the abusive ex-husband.
depending on if your the narcissist or just someone around the narcissist..... if you are the narcissist dont worry it wont effect you. You will just continue on with your selfish ways and use people for what they can do for you. If your someone around the narcissist..... RUN- get out while you can. The only way to really survive is to not have them in your life
Yes he would, but take a peice out of him and he'll take a chunk out of you, best thing to do to a narcissist is to ignore him, that will affect him more than anything.
they grow up thinking it is natural and they don't know that it is wrong
Depends on who the sports person is.
Not particularly. However, too much tickling can quickly become abusive if it goes on too long.
when the well is drained by a professional it won't affect other wells.
The marital status of an individual does not affect their professional standing.
It typically results in suspension of the professional license.
Some one who does not understand BDSM posted "being into bdsm is an unhealthy sign" this is a lie. All studies of people into BDSM have shown that most people into BDSM are happy normal people who just have kinks to there life. Most people who are into abusive relationships never get into BDSM relationships. If someone is into BDSM and there is also a abusive relationship going on all you need to do is look for the normal signs of a abusive relationship. Most BDSM couples for the most part have happy and healthy relationships but have a relationship that looks more like the idealized ones from the 1950's and may add play that would look abusive from the outside but is truly not. What I would tell people is take time to talk to both parties and look for the signs of an abusive relationship.
Data shows that a child who is abused will in turn become an abuser later in life. The life of an abused child is affected his/her entire life.
There is no doubt that it does.
