It’s a legitimate concern. Social media trends like this can distort your sense of reality, especially if you’re a teen.

If you’re primed to attribute other people’s behavior to narcissism, you might end up dismissing people who have good reasons for behaving the way they do. We’re already alienated enough without armchair-diagnosing our loved ones with mental disorders.

But I don’t think you will succeed at convincing your kids that protecting and limiting are two different things. All parents need to set limits. Oftentimes those limits are for the protection of their kids. So protecting and limiting sound like pretty much the same thing. You can’t set limits on what people do and simultaneously convince those people that you’re not limiting them.
