Having a sanctimonious pride in it doesn’t exactly start things off on the right foot. It’s one thing to understand the clear division between family members, it is another to insist on a superiority complex.
I guess we differ here. I don’t consider it a “complex” for a parent to feel wiser and more experienced than a child...but others may only look at themselves as equals.
To each their own (but I’ll take my kids ANY DAY, over any others - and so would a lot of parents I know).
