Is narcissism inherent or learned behavior?

Learned. People are not born with narcissism, but they are egocentric as young children and I think narcissism develops from an overblown egocentric development. When every thing in the family is centered totally on the young child and all of that child's wants ( needs are different) are given without delay the egocentric development grows to a point that it becomes narcissism. This doesn't happen with all children, but it does happen.
