Do you brag about your kids?

It’s all about intent. Yes, I tend to ‘brag’ about my kid, and I ‘brag’ about her brainiac friends, and I ‘brag’ about the gifted athlete son of one of my closest friends (he will be a professional baseball player mark my words), and I ‘brag’ about babysitting for Stone Cold Steve Austin and what a little crazy little maniac he was even at the age of 8 (our parents are friends, I had no choice). Oh wait a dang minute…I think I used the wrong word. I wasn’t ‘bragging’…I was paying compliment to all these people and their accomplishments.

You have a choice Hepstar; you can be appreciative of ‘compliments’ paid you and find something worth complimenting in others. Or you can just get worked up over semantics. :)
