It would depend on the relationship. Ideally, you as parent would read the situation and don't put your daughter into a defensive position, but lift her up. Unfortunately, some parents are just egomaniacs.
- bena 8y agoI think this is one of the fundamental problems: we often cast people into the roles of antagonist and protagonist. Someone has to be "wrong", someone the villain. Why? Why can't it be two people who simply have a misunderstanding? Not everything is an adversarial relationship. I could easily say "Unfortunately, some children are just egomaniacs" and it would fit just as well. I'm always wary of someone who wants to put the entire burden on one side. Expecting everything to cater to one's expectations just sounds selfish. At some point, you have to compromise as well.
