[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s the last gasp of parenting superiority. Certain parents have spent the last 18ish years justifying their own worth and validating their own choices through the accomplishments of their children. They are wildly insecure and emotionally broken. Where their kid gets into school is the last big opportunity to hold their child up as proof of their own relevancy and success, [b]rather than being relevant and successful in their own[/b]. Part of that is dysfunction diminishing others and the children of others.

These parents may do this more subtly or not at all in real life to not ostracize themselves from society with such narcissistic  behavior, or maybe they have no one to subject this too in real life because they’ve already driven everyone away, so they come to an anonymous forum where it can be done without consequence.

Doubt it. Parent’s success and accomplishments are typically positively correlated with their children’s, not negatively. You’re saying it as another toxic person who is jealous and thinks negatively about people who have more success than you.[/quote]
