Traits of Trifling Parents

7.  Competing With our Child

Parents may have not have always had the best upbringing or greatest opportunities themselves, but that should be something you want to change for your children.  Unfortunately, I’ve seen many mothers in competition for a man’s affection with their daughters or who hold resentment for their child’s success in education and career.  The success of your child is the biggest compliment that you as a parent could ever receive.  It obviously means that you did something right, so it sickens me to see parents who are so caught up in their own defeat that they try to make their children feel guilty for the success they’ve achieved.  They already have to watch their back in the street, so the last thing they need at home is more rivalry and resentment.
