Why do parents compare their kids to other kids?

and just know even if you gotta scrub toilets do it. it's better to do it as a kid then as an adult trust. And you build your experience. Makes life so much easier.

Literally anything to gain her trust, and show her that I'm responsible, but at the end of the day, no matter what she has to let me out, because it's gonaa impact badly on me when I go into the world of work.

What I used to so was just **** myself over so she gets all disappointed and then starts blaming herself. But that kinda **** only makes it bad for you. It sucks to have a parent as an enemy soz bab :\

It's fine, but thank you for the sympathy, I was born into her family and now I gotta live with it, my bad. Like some ppl say ohh, they say all of tht crap but they love you, but how does a parent like tht possibly love you, like she just goes, 'oh i wasted my time with her' as in like when she got preggs with me. Like srsly tho, love her taunts and comments.

I honestly know it sucks but I feel a lot of parents say that lol not that it's right but that it's not a curse on your part.

Why not?

They are cretins. Leading sad pathetic lives.

I don't understand either, i suppose is to motivate you to do well and prove people wrong.

I don't think parents do that/say that intentionally, they want the best for you.

I think it's evil tbh. Parents know how cruel kids can be to each other so to amp those rivalries and self esteem issues expecting it to have a positive outcome is just pathological. Just make your kid as best as they can and stop being passive aggressive with other adults through your kids.

Because nobody benefits from it, it's pointless to me.

I wholly agree with you.

Not trying to patronise you
but
When your dad tells you, you should be more like his friends cousin who got 12A*s and you be sitting there with 1A* 3A's 6B's and 2 C's it's sort difficult not be annoyed and peed of about the comparison.
I meam c'mon if the parent is a dunce then how can you expect your children to be amazing geniuses???
It's silly and is pointless yet people still do it,,,

I agree with you there, it's like not feeding your child and expecting them to get their own food, it's silly and doesn't work, why tf did you have a child in the first place then lol xD


I mean like the video said kids can do it to parents and we all know which one hurts more deep down

I agree but with regards to the bit in bold, you can still do well regardless of the academic position of your parents.

There are many people who came from poor backgrounds and had parents who were "dunce" or whatever you call it, but still determined and managed to do well academically.

Also, if a parent was a "dunce" i doubt that they would expect their children to become geniuses unless that parent knows his/her children are in a good environment to excel in.
