The purpose of this study was to investigate the moderating effects of teacher support between children's perception of parental overprotection and children's covert narcissism. The sample consist of 280 children in 4th, 5th, and 6th grades of elementary school from N city, Jeonbuk, Korea. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Cronbach'¥á, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation analysis, hierarchical multiple regression analysis using SPSS 25.0 program. The results of this study can be summarized as follows: First, it can be seen that boys are perceived as being more protective of their parents than girls. Second, the more the parents are overprotective, higher the chances that their children will reveal covert narcissism. Unlike parents, the more the emotional and practical support teachers provide, the lower the chances of covert narcissism being displayed by the children. Third, teacher support was found to have a moderating effects upon the father's overprotection and this in turn impacted on children's covert narcissism. However, this did not seem to affect the mother. This suggests that teacher support decreased the children's covert narcissism, however a mother's overprotection is more predictive of children's covert narcissism. It can be thus inferred that whilst teachers are required to increase the importance of their influence on children and to become independent in development, the existence of a mother still has relatively more influence on children than either fathers or teachers.
