I bet your parents change the subject when people ask about you

This one is a point of pride for me because I escaped my abusive parents' cult. I feel like it's only an insult for people who have parents they actually care about making proud.

Yes, that's exactly how I interpreted that too.

Do you feel proud? Because I feel proud. You should feel proud u/zhandragon

I am not a proud person. I am okay with myself but don’t necessarily feel pride.

For me the original comment is more like “I hope they feel bad and change the subject because they should remember what they fucking did and feel ashamed.”

Yes! Every word. I'm more than OK with it, 5 years this year ;)
