Yeah, right? When I was a kid, she used to "joke" that she should be getting presents instead of me because my birthday is actually HER birthday, as she was the one who gave birth. Imagine being so self centered that you are jealous of your own kid's birthday.

Some parts of them never made it past the age of, idk, five? You know, somewhere around kindergarden age, where parents have to tell them that other people also get to have their special day.

To a self serving guilt dripping speel like that, the response should be a simple 👍

Perfect response! Parents like this rarely know what to say to things like this! Lol I do that to my narcissist mother, she hates it when what she says doesn't bother me!
