Quickwrite - "Young People are Narcissists"

Are all young people narcissists?  I actually believe the opposite of the quote and I think that all young people are insecure. If you went up to a teenager on the street and asked them to point out their biggest insecurity, they could probably list you 10. I think that most young people put on a mask and pretend to be overly confident because they believe that it appeals to other people. Maybe some young people think that coming off as cocky directly relates to being "popular". But the truth it everyone has their own insecurities and nobody loves everything about themselves. Of course there are certain teenagers who really do love themselves, but the majority are insecure. For those who truly are narcissists I don't think they can grow out of it, it's a personality trait that you have and will stick with you.
