Supposedly we’re raising more narcissists with every generation.

Small family size can’t be helping the situation.

There’s a large cultural element in this kind of behavior for sure.

If you’re talking about true narcissists, a borderline personality disorder, family size has nothing to do with it. It is a defense mechanism the child creates because of not getting their emotional needs met in the stages that require it.

If you’re talking about a culture that cares more about frivolously entertaining oneself and amassing toys, that lack of character (but not true narcissism) probably has more to do with taking God out of everything, including our homes.
