[quote=Anonymous]I think what some people hear as bragging is really just their own insecurities. It goes both ways. If you think everyone is bragging, you should look in the mirror. One example with my sister in law and mother in law from the weekend; we both have preschoolers about the same age: My 3 yo says something clever and funny, as she has a tendency to do. Me: Haha, you're hilarious, kid. My DH: Haha, she is seriously funny. Where does she get this stuff? SIL: My daughter is funny too. MIL: Oh yes, your daughter is so funny too. Very, very funny. Defensive, much? Another example, my 3 yo goes to the bathroom herself and washes her hands. Upon walking out of bathroom: Me: Did you go potty and wash your hands all by yourself? Great job. Our nanny, to me: She's getting so grown up. She couldn't do that when I started. SIL: My daughter is grown up and independent too. A very big girl. So many eye rolls. [/quote]
