I F you don’t want to raise a narcissistic brat, consider
taking a hard look at your parenting style.
A new study found parents who believe their
kids are better, more special and deserve more than
other kids can pass that point of view on to their children,
creating young narcissists who feel superior to
others and entitled to privileges.
“ Loving your child is healthy and good, but thinking
your child is better than other children can lead
to narcissism, and there is nothing healthy about
narcissism,” said Brad Bushman, a professor of communication
and psychology at Ohio State University.
Bushman is the co- author of a new paper that
found a direct correlation between parents who overvalue
their children and children who are narcissistic.
The study, published last week in Proceedings
of the National Academy of Sciences of the United
States of America , is the first to look at the origins of
narcissism.
“ People are not just born narcissists and there is
nothing you can do about it,” Bushman said. “ Our
research shows that the way parents treat their children
can predict how narcissistic their kids are.”
Narcissism is not a disorder people do or do not
have. It is a spectrum on which adults and kids from
the general population gradually differ from one
another, said Eddie Brummelman, a postdoctoral
researcher at the University of Amsterdam in the
Netherlands and the first author of the study.
“ Most children score around the midpoint of the
narcissism continuum, with some scoring very low
and some children scoring very high,” he said. “ In
its extreme form, narcissism can sometimes develop
into narcissistic personality disorder in adulthood.”
For the study, the researchers conducted interviews
with 565 children between the ages of seven
and 12, and their parents, every six months over an
18- month period. Bushman said they chose that age
range because the first signs of narcissistic tendencies
begin to emerge around age eight.
“ Before that, every kid is a narcissist,” he said. “ If
you go into a classroom of five- year- olds and ask who
here is good at math, they will all raise their hand. It
isn’t until about age eight that they start to compare
themselves with others.”
Every six months of the 18- month study period,
the children were asked to rate their response to 10
items on the Childhood Narcissism Scale from zero
to three, with zero being “ not at all true” and three
being “ completely true.”
The statements included, “ Kids like me deserve
something extra,” and, “ I am a great example for
other kids to follow.” It also included the sinister
statement, “ I am very good at making other people
believe what I want them to believe.”
For the parents, the researchers used the parental
over- valuation scale, which includes statements such
as, “ My child deserves special treatment,” and, “ I
would find it disappointing if my child was just a
‘ regular’ child.”
The researchers also had the kids take a selfesteem
test, and the parents were asked to take a
parental warmth test.
The researchers found the more parents overvalued
their kids, the more narcissistic the kids’
responses became six months later. They also found
parental warmth was associated with high selfesteem
in kids, but parental over- valuation was not
associated with high self- esteem.
“ When children are seen by their parents as being
more special and more entitled than other children,
they may internalize the view that they are superior
individuals, a view that is at the core of narcissism,”
the researchers conclude in the paper.
They add: “ When children are treated by their
parents with affection and appreciation, they may internalize
the view that they are valuable individuals,
a view that is at the core of self- esteem.”
So, according to the research, loving your kid and
thinking he or she is awesome is a good thing, but
thinking your kid is more awesome than other kids
can lead to trouble down the road, Brummelman
said.
