I'd say it does make a difference - It depends on the reason they need the attention.

If it is just because they are self absorbed little divas who think they world owe them a living (you know the type) - as opposed to something critical being at the root cause - rather than just a stroppy little git / or egotistical adult who has to be the centre of attention for nothing more than wanting to be 'star turn' all the time.
