[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you handle one-uppers in your day-to-day life? You know, the type where no matter what, they've got you beat - they are busier, they have less free time, their kids sleep less. You have a work trip that is logistically hard for your family? Their DH is going on four work trips in the next month! This isn't just limited to things being hard -- their kids are also the smartest, the most athletic, etc. Assume this is a relationship where simply avoiding them won't work. Is there an easy way to shut this down? Ignoring it isn't working. [/quote] The question you need to answer is why does it bother you? You CHOOSE what bothers you. Would you care if this was a random person living in Europe? No. So, why do you care? Why can you not focus on your life versus comparing to others. Every family is different along with parent and kid personalities. [/quote]
