Yep. And then add to that “you’re smart” stuff coming from parents that would rather die than believe anything you tell them if it even slightly contradicts opinions they formed 40 years ago
Almost seems like an effort to other you as “smart” while getting to appear as they’re complimenting you
They’re probably not aware of it but that is exactly what they’re doing by labelling you as ‘smart’ and implying they are not. Too bad they fail to notice the connotation of excluding themselves from the ‘smart’ category.
