Bragging Parents
Do your parents brag about you to other people, even infront of you? and how does it make you feel?

my parents never do that. maybe they might slip and say some little things here and there, but that's all. we're pretty quiet most of the time.
Yes my mother always brag about me to other people, and I really hate it, because I feel she does it only so she can take the credit for bringing me up. One annoying thing is, when I was a child, I never could do things good enough for her, and I never felt that she loved me. The other thing is, when I met my mothers friends or family, she already told them almost everything about me before I got the chance to tell them myself. That is one of the reasons why I don´t talk much with my mother anymore. ![]()
My mum's a star at it and she sometimes even does it in front of me. I hate it. But I don't think she realises it. That's just her u know. My dad's perfect when it comes to that. He hardly says anything. ![]()

ummm.... my mother never doea that, but my dad finds it funny, so he does that all the time. Sometimes I get really hurt, because his jokes are too humiliating. Anyway, I have learned to live with that, though it still hurts me.

not about me no. they brag about my sister all the frigging time, i dont care, but it's so annoying since she doesn't live in this country anymore. i'm proud of my sister but there's no need to be saying it out loud every 5 damn seconds.

They'd like to do that. But they can't. Because they know that if they start, I'll go on bragging about them in front of people and that wouldn't be nice at all.

Sure! Not so much lately (he, maybe there is no reason
:)
).
I tried to teach them not to do that.
On the contrary. My parents brag about my elder sister but try not to mention me, as I have not had the same fabulous career as my sister. Well, hers was uninterrupted because she never had children. So, they go around telling people how proud they are of her. They forget to mention me. Once my Father said he wanted me to do something to make him proud and which he could tell other people about. So far I have failed to measure up to his expectations. However, without me, my parents would not have had any grandchildren. But, they do tend to forget that fact.
OMG....Well we moved house recently and our new Neighbours came around to introduce themselves and my mum and dad were talking and then they were on about ‘the kids’ meaning me and my sis and they said I was going to vet school I was like no actually I’m going to uni to do zoology and conservation that soon shut them up.

Yeaha used to do it all the time not so much anymore
My mom always brags about me, she always tells people I'm such a good hostess, I throw the best parties, I know how to entertain people, according to her, I'm a real high-society goddess
All of which, by the way, isn't true. I do well at parties, but nothing more than that.
My dad brags about me, because he loves that I play polo, he loves that I bought myself a Porsche, he loves that I like most of the things he likes
I am not often with my parents by other people. so maybe they do, but I don't notice it.
I have no idea about it
I haven't seen them for a while anyway

Yeah, about certain things. A lot of parents seem to be under the impression that their children are a lot more talented than they are, and can do things that they cannot, my mum included. It's pretty much just as embarrassing as it was when i was a child. Infact, it's more so. I realise parents are often proud people, proud of their kids, but it's annoying when your mum's telling people you can do this, that and the other, when you can barely do the first of those three.
The worst proud/bragging parents are new ones, or those with one or more young children, who like to show you a hundred thousand pictures of their kids, nearly all the same, when you didn't even want to see the first one.
