A survey carried out in America on college students has shown that today's students are more narcissistic than previous generations. The results show after a Narcissistic Personality Inventory completed between 1982 and 2006 by more than 16,000 students was analysed by experts.
The study linked narcissism to poor social skills, higher levels of infidelity and game playing, violent behavior, and relationships that are less warm and intimate. Narcissists also tend to lack empathy and show greedy and competitive behavior, the study said.
During the 1980's, there was a self esteem movement carrie out in American schools which involved children reciting "I am special". Apparently this plays a big role in making children more self-centred than they already are!
Shockingly, the study also pointed out that MySpace and You Tube are possible contributors, as they involve promoting yourself to the outside world. Many of today's children all over the world are a part of MySpace, so does this mean that deep down we're all attention seeking and self centred? If so, then I can include myself in those counted!

The thing with the I'm special movement is that people cannot take criticism anymore. I was reading something a while ago about how american kids are really brought up with the whole we are amazing and great and always looking on the bright side stuff that when they get even the smallest negative comment in (for example) a report card they really start crying because they cannot take the negativity. Of course this isn't true of everyone.
Yeah, all american kids have become more violent and rude than their earlier generations. This is all because of rude arcade and battle video games.
