[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad was horrible about this. Everything I achieved was yep, just like your dad. Every test mark, my favorite subjects, every compliment. My mom was the same but opposite- I was never good at math, one time me me me. Yet if I made the slightest imperfect decision though, that was all on me. And worse because I was now making him look bad. So now I have my own kids, I don't do that to them but struggle with validation and feeling good enough. It's a horrid attitude to raise kids with. Kids are separate and unique people. Dd looks just like me, everyone says it, but no mini-me crap. It's so damaging. [/quote] I agree. [/quote]
