Brains Applied's video: Where do entitled parents come from - The Social Learning Theory

Howdy Cowboys, Have you ever wondered out of which level of hell narcissistic children and their entitled parents come from? That's what I explain to you in this video. Academic literature proposes two theories: The psychoanalytical theory states that narcissistic people have often been put down as a children. They have very little confidence and with their entitlement, they try to make up for their past experiences. The Social Learning theory states that narcissistic people have been praised and spoiled by their parents. Off course, this isn't a bad thing but their parents take it really far and the children eventually take over their mindset. A survey has pointed out that the latter theory is more plausible. Please do note that character traits also have an important influence in whether you will become a narcist or not. Enjoy the ride! Don't forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE!
