No denial... must be true.
"Narcissism tends to develop in environments where there's a lot of OVERINDULGENCES and under-indulgences," Chelsey Cole, a psychotherapist and author specializing in narcissistic abuse, says. "Typically, it's an overindulgence in focusing on status, MONEY, appearance, how things look to others or just to focus on external achievements, and there's an under-indulgence in teaching kids about compassion and empathy, really developing their sense of self and their self-
esteem and connection to others."
The three ways people become narcissists
According to mental health experts, there are three main ways children grow up to become narcissists:
They are overindulged for their SUPERFICIAL attributes.
They are under-indulged in their emotions.
They experience TRAUMA or abuse.
Parents can also overindulge children by allowing them to throw temper tantrums without consequences, never allowing them to learn how to
regulate emotional outbursts, as well as by teaching them that they are more special than others.
This one's for Rudy: Lastly, children who suffer abuse are at a higher risk of developing a myriad of mental health issues, as well as a
narcissistic personality style.
The Problem With Rich Kids
In a surprising switch, the offspring of the affluent today are more distressed than other youth. They show disturbingly high rates of
substance use, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, cheating, and stealing. It gives a whole new meaning to having it all.
Increasingly, significant problems are occurring at the other end of the socioeconomic spectrum, among youth en route to the most
prestigious universities and well-paying, high-status careers in America. These are young people from communities dominated by white-
collar, well-educated parents. They attend schools distinguished by rich academic curricula, high standardized test scores, and diverse
extracurricular opportunities. The parents' annual income, at $150,000 and more, is well over twice the national average. And yet they show
serious levels of maladjustment as teens, displaying problems that tend to get worse as they approach college.
Poor wittle rich kid.
