[quote=Anonymous]DH is Filipino and we have lots of Filipino family and friends, and it's pretty common to speak somewhat negatively of your kids TO them or about them when they are in earshot-- yet praise them a lot when they (the kids) are not around. We've assumed it's just the sort of... you know, parents understand the child's strengths and weaknesses and are genuinely proud of their kids-- but culturally don't want them getting a "big head." Which is why they will brag on them, but only if they aren't around to hear it. [/quote]
