Abstract

Parental influence plays an important role in the mental development of a child. In the early years of childhood, a parent acts as a role model to a child, so most of the children try to mimic their parents. In our work, we address a complex network model of a child who is influenced by a narcissistic parent from his/her childhood to his/her adolescence. This concept of mimicking in childhood is represented by social contagion. Later on, he/she can learn to develop his/her own personality based on experience and learning. This model can be used to predict the influence of a parent over the personality of a child.
