Nparents Be Like: “Your Success Is Actually MY Success"

ou ever achieve something and think, Wow, maybe they’ll finally be proud of me! …Only for your Nparent to either:

  1. Take full credit for it.
  2. Downplay it like it’s nothing.
  3. Somehow twist it into a personal attack against them.

Like, I could win a Nobel Prize and my mom would be like, “Well, if it weren’t for ME, you wouldn’t even be ALIVE to win it.” 💀

What’s the wildest way your Nparent has hijacked your achievements? Let’s hear the narcissistic mental gymnastics. Pretty please?
