[quote=Anonymous]My mom does this but she’s definitely on the narcissistic personality spectrum. When she brags about me, it’s her way of claiming my accomplishments as her own, and when I am around and she gives me advice, it’s her way of cutting me down/minimizing my accomplishments. She wants to show me that she knows more than I do and I wouldn’t be where I am without her “expert” advice and influence. The reality is that when she’s around me she feels threatened or diminished so she has to minimize me or take credit for me, or both.[/quote]
