[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, your family is the normal and well adjusted family. Your kids know themselves and act accordingly. At that age, they don't need your approval. You've raised them well. The other families (especially the adult children!) are doing some ingrained performative bullshit. Country Club families are full of this culture. It's weird! OP here the first post that really resonated with me. Yes, it did in fact seem quite like a performance, always laughing, smiling, everything was hunky dory with them, it was almost suffocating. I mean if its real, good for them. Was I feeling jealous and "less than"? Yes I admit I was because we didn't have the same interaction with my kids but you are right at least they stood their ground and did what they wanted vs following the crowd. You lightened my mood and perspective a little...thanks! [/quote][/quote]
