That's how parents can really screw up their kids, by keeping comparing them to others. Especially to ones that are just way better in something than their kids. Kids either grow up hyper competitive and jealous about other successes or insecure about their abilities and feeling lacking no matter what they do. Personally I think it is a form of (emotional) child abuse.
