      “Hey, I’m proud of my kid!”

      Yeah, but is your kid as good as my kid?

      That’s not wholesome, that’s asshole.

        OR:

        “My kid can pass any test”

        “But is your kid a well rounded individual?”

        Nothing like a fresh perspective to challenge your perception.

          Post says “bragging about their kids’ accomplishments.” That’s what parents do. I get that there are parents who use that kind of thing to pre-emptively place their kids above yours, but in my experience, that’s not terribly common.

          The post honestly reads like it was made up by a kid who’s got some anxiety about their own place in the world and wants to feel bettr about it, not something that a parent would actually say.
