How to Avoid Raising Narcissistic Kids 2018-04-18T19:06:50+00:00 Sarah Hamaker

LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

Studies have found that parents who overpraise are raising narcissistic children. In this week’s video blog, I give ways that parents can keep narcissism at bay in our children by avoiding overusing praise–and how you should encourage and compliment your children instead. For a written version of this blog, read “7 ways to nip narcissism in the bud” from the Washington Post.
