Like the above poster said I’m not a parent so take what I say however you would like. If I were in your position I would try to sit down and talk with her. Explain to her that the way she is communicating with you doesn’t make you feel good. But don’t just tell her how you feel, try to get an understanding of how she’s feeling too. Sometimes how parents come across to us kids is not how they mean to. Tell her that you don’t enjoy being compared to other kids. Really just explain your case, but do it in a way that isn’t combative. Perhaps introducing her to CC and seeing the posts will give her a change of heart.
