And this is why parents and kids should stay out of each other's fandom activities.
Jealousy of your child might be a real emotion you feel, but it's not a healthy one. Pride is. Think how this competition might extend to other areas of your life with your child and how it might potentially damage her or your relationship with her.

Definitely NOT OP here

My daughter and I are into the same stuff, do a lot of the same things. She's getting really really good.

It's never crossed my mind to even think of rivalry or jealousy. All that counts is that she is having a good time and has an outlet for her creativity.

[(Anonymous)]

That's a cool relationship then.

[(Anonymous)]

The OP perhaps might think of getting some counseling to explore their feelings of jealousy towards their daughter. Later on in life it might cause real problems for them.

[(Anonymous)]

Uh, the jealously was clearly over the fact her OTP had a ficathon with a ton of writers not of the daughter herself?

[(Anonymous)]

That's how I read it.

[(Anonymous)]

me too. would have liked more stories for her ship.

that's a pretty normal reaction, I think.

[(Anonymous)]

I agree.

It might seem to be a minor problem, but it can become something more. Or there is something more.

[(Anonymous)]

I have the impression that is not serious jealousy, more of the tongue in cheek kind.

[(Anonymous)]

This.

I thought it was pretty clear it wasn't a real, intense jealousy

[(Anonymous)]

That's how I read it too.

Or that it's intended more along the lines of: "I wish my pairing/fandom/whatever were more popular than it is" ... which is something most of us have felt, at one point or another.

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't get that impression, but I hope you are right.

[(Anonymous)]

My thoughts as well, but tongue-in-cheek always flies over someone's head.

[diet_poison]

It often flies over many peoples' heads, on the internet.

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't read it that way at all - I think OP is jealous that her daughter's fandom is bigger and more active than her own, that's all.

[lunabee34]

Agreed.

I also agree with the person upthread that said it sounded more tongue in cheek.

[(Anonymous)]

... it reads to me like discontent at her ship not being popular. That's normal.

and parents happen to be people too. what they actual fuck?
