Over-the-top advertisements of children's accomplishments are everywhere. "Watch Matthew's game-winning shot!" a mom shouts to her Facebook friend uploading a video. "Little Susie is years ahead in math!" a dad proclaims at a family barbeque.
But often these compliments can get a little out of hand; moms and dads aren't impartial when it comes to their kids' abilities. Whether they realize they're doing it or not, they can easily over-exaggerate.
And when they do, they end up on the subreddit called r/WokeKids. The number one internet archive of proud parents. Continue scrolling to check out our hand-picked posts from this entertaining online community and a few random pictures we found elsewhere that we thought are very appropriate and go with its content well. Enjoy!

Omg this. All these kids who are getting themselves vaccinated immediately upon turning 18.... I hope they can feel the pride and support from the online community, if not at home. It's the correct order of things as well. Every new generation OUGHT to be smarter than the ones preceding them

He's a child, not an idiot. His parents are idiots. As an adult, it doesn't make you look smart to call a kid an idiot for repeating what their parents tell them. They don't know any better yet. You do.

You have taught your child if other people have different opinions or ideas they are 'idiots'.

Enough Of Your S**t, Rebecca
All this child-centered bragging, despite its patent violation of the social ideals of modesty and respect for others, may be, according to University of Pennsylvania sociologist Annette Lareau, PhD, an outgrowth of the hothouse style of parenting that pervades our culture.
Lareau, who has studied the habits and behaviors of contemporary families, calls this practice "concerted cultivation." She thinks it's a way middle-class parents tend to see "parenting as a project," something to be managed and organized and programmed.

The Gifted 4 Year Old High-Unschooler
"There's a way in which an activity is more intense for the mother than it is even for the child," Lareau told WebMD. "And the competitive nature of activities is woven into the heart of the process."
Psychiatrist Alvin Rosenfeld, MD, believes it's much better to concentrate on the whole child instead of just the part you like. "Many focus on their children's achievements, rather than getting to know their kids as individuals," Rosenfeld explained. "The dilemma is when kids become valued only for their accomplishments -- or when they live up to your fantasies of what they ought to accomplish -- not for who they are as people."

“Hey Buddy Hold This Spatula Real Quick”
Parents need to remember to model the behavior they want their kids to develop. "If they see and hear you bragging, that's the behavior they'll emulate," Rosenfeld added.
Social etiquette matters. Don't be a braggart; we don't know about other families' struggles and challenges. The parent you might be tempted to tell about your kid's athletic accomplishments, for example, may have a child with a physical disability.
Again, focus on who your children are as people rather than their latest test score. "We rarely hear the simple praise, 'He is such a good (or good-hearted) kid,'" Rosenfeld said.

At age 9? In 2021? This is 100% something a kid that age could plausibly say. I get a feeling that the people who object to these don't interact with many children.

Ya know, most people who grow up around people like this end up being hardcore atheists and agnostics
Psychotherapist and author F. Diane Barth said that if you do feel compelled to brag to other parents about your kid, be sure to give them equal time to brag about theirs and try to think of something you admire about their children in case they can’t come up with something.
Every parent wants to tell the world their kid is something special, and they should, but the trick is to balance it out. As you can see from the pictures, there's a line between being incredibly impressed with their accomplishments and talking the kids up to the point everyone thinks you're simply full of it.

Yeah, That’s What An 8 Year Old Is Worrying About
NsG 2 years ago
I understand this. It's in the language of a child, but the gist is if you teach in subjects without showing how those subjects are connected, you miss an important learning opportunity. Science contains maths. Geography contains science. History contains social studies (and vice versa). And some of this crossover starts in primary school. I'm not sure I get what he means about music, but the rest of it makes sense. And is absolutely what an 8 year old can worry about.

Poster Claims Their 5th Grader Did This
Reviewer UK01 2 years ago
Believable. Small children are parrots, if they've heard something, especially opinions heavily foisted on them, they'll reproduce on demand. Many antivax parents are scared their child will be secretly vaccinated at every doctor's appointment, so they teach them what they want them to say in this fictional scenario. Sad.

What do you think ?

I'm honestly confused. Some of these are straight-up cringe. But some are obviously exaggerated for comedic effect, or are pointed satires of the trope. And a lot of them are what kids those ages would actually say? Usually because kids believe and repeat stuff from their parents all the time. A lot of comments here are saying "a 6/8/10/11 yr old would never say that; I was playing with dirt crayons at that age". But a lot of the kids I know absolutely would say this stuff. A 5 or 6 year-old writing BLM signs, telling people girls can marry girls, drawing brown faces in the Nativity scene, making to-do lists, making NO BULLYING sign for school, making ILOVEYOUGOD signs... Normal kids say and do these things, especially if they are around adults who talk about it a lot. They may not understand everything, but kids are very vocal and impressionable, and are working to figure out how things work. Or is the cringe factor in bragging about it?

My dogther (get it? Daughter but a dog?

If it wasn't for them I would have ran into the Christmas tree a lot earlier. Also, let me leave you with this Shakespeare quote I find rather appropriate for the moment: I am "as hungry as the sea."
