Longtime friend’s bragging about her kids is wearing thin
A longtime reader values a spiritual family friend but is frustrated by her constant bragging about her adult children’s successes and family trips.
Dear Eric: I have a wonderful, spiritual family friend who I have known for more than 20 years. I value her friendship, but she has always been very materialistic and continuously lives through her children and their successes.
I am always supporting her and love her and her family but there are times when she picks a nerve with me because of how much she tends to brag about how her adult children have treated her to family trips and such.
