Honestly, the sheer amount of referencing narcissism in others, especially children, makes me think this person has NPD and is projecting their own faults onto other people. You can't psychoanalyse someone from a single blog post though.
Yeah, like I said, it is impossible to diagnose someone via a random blog post. I've dealt with some awful narcissists in my life so I tend to see it a lot, even when it isn't there. It's far more often just someone with an inflated ego than someone with an actual mental illness.
In the US, a psychiatrist has gone to medical school. A psychologist generally has a PhD focused on a type of psychology, something like social psych, clinical, neuro, etc. and likely already has a lot of research experience because of that.
