Don't you think it's weird that people get so offended when we tell them we're acting like our parents? I remember my dad did that to my mom one time and... yeah it wasn't good. Even when the parent is a good parent, I think people resent the implication that they're doomed to repeat the mistakes they were raised with. People want to feel autonomous, virtuous, etc, and not pre-programmed by some outside entity, especially not one they likely grew up critiquing to some extent. My bf told me I was acting like my mom in jest recently, and I commented back that his bad behavior made me feel like I was his mom too, which I gave myself a mental high-five for. BUT ALSO too real, dangerous jokes, haha. Anyways, best not to take stuff like that too seriously, unlike these two. Then again my parents don't have deathhands, I'm sure I'd feel a little different if that was the case.
