I think I'm with you. There's a line between being proud of your kids and being braggadocios/arrogant about your kids' success. I think for me it gives off the impression that they want to take credit for their kids' success rather than let their kids get the proper amount of credit for themselves. The kid is special so don't diminish him and his success by projecting yourself into his spotlight.I’m sure he’s a good dude and probably a great dad. That just rubs me the wrong way. My kids are pretty awesome too but the world doesn’t need a daily reminder from me.
It's one thing to share your kid's big accomplishments on social media so family and friends can enjoy the success with you and it's something completely different to share your kid's big accomplishments on social media to bring attention to yourself. I've not studied this guy's tweeter feed to form my own opinion, but I get where you're going with it.
