Children in fiction live in terror of their parents ever getting a chance to interact with the other kids in school. This is for a very good reason — parents in fiction seem to be on a quest to humiliate their children in front of their peers. They always have a thousand-and-one stories about things their unfortunate offspring did when they were two years old, and they're always a thousand-and-one percent certain that everyone wants to hear them. And in that respect, they're absolutely right, just not for the reasons that they think — the Alpha Bitch and her ilk are just dying to hear humiliating childhood stories because they'll be able to tease the poor protagonist about them for years to come. Sometimes, childhood stories aren't even necessary: the parents' mere behavior, presence, or lifestyle are all it takes to turn a casual scene into something terribly awkward. Especially if the parents are bent on proving how "hip" and "cool" they are by dropping the "latest" slang terms. Older offspring whose parents are deeply embarrassing when their good friends are around just have to remember that Friends Are Chosen, Family Aren't. If they're a teacher, they'll become an Embarrassing Relative Teacher, making things even worse. If the hero lets slip that they don't like their parent's behavior, then the parents tend to be hurt. Due to the Rule of Drama (or, Informed Wrongness, more accurately), the situation will be contrived for maximum hurt and the hero is likely to have to spend the rest of the episode trying to make amends, with the whole thing ending on An Aesop with the hero learning to value the parents that embarrass him or her in front of other people and the parents gaining empathy for their child. Also, baby photos, middle names, and the Homemade Sweater from Hell are a must. Parental Sexuality Squick is related but doesn't require the kid's peers to be present. Though sometimes it may not even be funny. A parent who is genuinely screwed-up, malicious or abusive can go beyond 'embarrassing' and into 'humiliating' territory. Truth in Television, of course. You may actually have parents like this or even be one. Anyone with an Easily Embarrassed Youngster for a kid will usually be seen as this by their kid at least once. Contrast Famous Ancestor. May overlap with Teasing Parent if they tease their child in public. May be subject to, or source of, Familial Chiding. |

X-Men: #30 of X-Men: Gold has Rachel having to deal with her mother "momming" said mother's temporally displaced teenage self over drinking champagne at a wedding, and the latter dismissing it and saying that she should "mom" Rachel instead - who is muttering about wishing aliens would invade to end the sheer awkwardness. It's worth noting that thanks to her own time-travelling, Rachel is about halfway between her mother and her teen mother in age. (At least, physically. Chronologically, she's older than both of them thanks to time travel.) | |

In Baldur's Gate, CHARNAME's adopted parents, the monks of Candlekeep, include a few of these, but the two best examples have to be Theodon and Jessup, who, if not dramatically cut off, will happily ramble on to CHARNAME and their party about what a cute little nudist toddler they were, regaling them with a story of one incident when CHARNAME stole the cloak of Khelban Blackstaff and made it into a cape, giving it back only when Khelban used a spell to catch them, and commenting on how they wished they had a chance to show off some of CHARNAME's baby pictures. | |

In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, when Paya's conversations with Link turn to how she got her name, she reluctantly reveals that it comes from a papaya-shaped Distinguishing Mark, but she's too embarrassed to say where exactly it is. Her grandmother Impa eventually reveals it's on her left buttock, leaving Paya mortified. It's actually a bit of an Out-of-Character Moment for Impa; asking about the birthmark most times will lead Impa to gently lead Link away from the topic, and she only reveals where it is after realizing how big of a crush Paya has on Link. | |

Blinded by the Light: On the first day of school, Javed's father, Malik, shouts at him from the car to stay away from girls and "follow the Jews" to success. Matt also views his father this way. Eliza also feels this way about hers. They believe she's only with Javed to shock them, mention that Eliza once brought home a "colored fellow" before (which she tells him is a term no one uses anymore) and her dad offers him wine even though as a Muslim it's forbidden. As they're Conservatives and she's a leftist activist, it's clear she finds that an embarrassment as well. |

CODA (2021): Ruby has to suffer from her dad talking (through sign language) about how Miles, her new boyfriend, should use a condom while they have sex, in a very over the top way (the two aren't actually sexually active). It would be amusing to many people watching the film, but much the opposite for her. | |

A Bad Moms Christmas reveals this is why the protagonists of the original are quite screw up: Amy's mother Ruth is a critical and perfectionist show-off, Kiki gets downright irked at Sandy being overwhelming and smothering, and Carla's mom Isis is as much of a hedonist apathetic about family as herself (Carla doesn't mind, aside from how Isis never comes unless it's to get money for gambling). | |

A wonderful "Revenge of the Kid" occurred in On the Fastrack when Melody was showing Laurel's baby pictures to Bob. Melody excused herself briefly; Laurel followed her out, there was the sound effect of a flashbulb and a piercing scream, and Laurel came back to hand Bob a Polaroid photo with the words, "My mother on the throne." Cue another piercing scream from out-of-frame. | |

In her autobiography Fierce, Kelly Osbourne speaks of being embarrassed by her father on numerous occasions as part of her experiences growing up. In one notable case, Ozzy wasn't terribly amused when he found out his wife Sharon had bought then-teenaged Kelly thong underwear as a present, and then proceeded to cut up the thong—in front of her friends. More recently, it's Kelly's mom Sharon that seems to be distressing the young star, as Kelly has expressed embarrassment at her mother's willingness to overshare on The Talk. And then there's the time Sharon had backup while they were on television. It might not have been too painful if the backup hadn't been Marilyn Manson. On the bright side, he managed to embarrass Sharon, and the three of them embarrassed Ozzy and Jack, too. |

Growing Up: Alexandra Beaufort is initially nervous about talking about her parents to you because they live and work at the carnival instead of having "normal" jobs. If you've befriended her well enough when you give her her missed homework, she'll be happy to take you around the carnival because she knows you won't judge her family for it. Vivica's mom dotes on her and takes her out to dinner in the beginning of her route, but Vivica absolutely can't stand it because her parents dote on her brother more than her since she's adopted. You can go to dinner with them to help ease the tension a bit. |

Turning Red: When Ming finds Mei's notebook full of romantic drawings of a clerk from a convenience store, she furiously presumes he's preying on her and confronts him during business hours. She drops the drawings Mei made of him as a sexy merman in front of him and the whole store, which includes Tyler (the school bully). The next day, after Mei's transformation activates, and Ming mistakes her distress for her first period, another transformation is triggered by Ming sneaking onto school grounds to bring her pads in front of Mei's entire math class. Ming is caught by security and haughtily protests being escorted through proper channels because she pays the taxes that fund the school. | |

This is a major theme in the blog STFU Parents, which documents real-life incidents of parents sharing too much information about their kids over Facebook. Even though a good portion of the kids are too young to see said posts, you can't help but feel sorry for some of them. Considering that on the internet no information ever dies, you can't help but wonder if in a decade or so scouring Facebook for embarrassing childhood stories will become a standard bullying tactic. | |

Stephanie Plum's mother and grandmother (especially Grandma Mazur) are so embarrassing that even Stephanie's father can barely stand it. As an example, when Stephanie's mother sets her up on a blind date in the first book, Grandma Mazur pulls out a gun during dinner and accidentally shoots the main course while showing it off. Stephanie often begs them to calm down to no effect, while her father, being The Quiet One, merely mutters "Christ" under his breath when they get particularly bad. | |

Actor/comedian Ray Romano often lampshades his status as this in his comedy routines and used to do so on Everybody Loves Raymond as well (though on the show he usually makes more fun of his own Amazingly Embarrassing Parents). In one memorable real-life incident, Ray won the award for best comedy lead at the People Choice Awards in 2006, during ELR's final season, and invited his then-teenaged sons onto the stage. Being that they were teenagers, they were ultra-embarrassed and refused. Ray being a comedian, he then decided to substitute them by bringing Angus T. Jones of the then-new Two and a Half Men on stage instead, resulting in hilarity for everyone involved. It's definitely worth watching, check it out on here. | |

In How I Survived Middle School, Jenny's mom tends to embarrass her in front of her peers, which is best shown in the first book when she calls Addie's sudden appearance at Jenny's house a "playdate" and offers to take them to the teddy bear factory store at the mall to make their own bears like they did as kids. She's also capable of inflicting embarrassment when she's not even around; in the beginning of The New Girl, Dana steals a note from her that Jenny dropped and reads it out loud to her friends, giving them the chance to mock her for the fact that her mom calls her "Jen-Jen" and signs her notes to her as "Mommy". | |

Amnesia: Memories has Kent see his parents this way. When the heroine meets his parents, they are very enthusiastic about their son's relationship and mention that, logically speaking, nothing is stopping them, and even talk about their genetics being compatible. Kent tries to set things straight since their relationship is still pretty fresh and he's convinced that, if the heroine regains her memories, she'll hate him again. Amnesia LATER makes it worse for Kent because his parents make no secret of the fact that they consider the heroine as his future wife and their daughter-in-law. And mention how he tried to wash the entire futon when he got the cover dirty. | |

In Reflections on the River, Ah Niu is not actually related to Zheng but describes himself as a good source of embarrassing childhood stories about Zheng anyway. However, his comments are actually more than just embarrassing — the very fact that he can tell stories about Zheng's childhood reveals that Zheng's claim to be magically ageless is a fiction. | |

In I Was a Teenage Exocolonist, Antecedent dotes on her daughter Anemone, perhaps a little too much: She embarrasses her Anemone when she hits puberty by baking her a red velvet cake that says "Welcome to Womb-manhood!" and proudly telling the other grown-ups that she's "becoming a woman". If the female puberty option is chosen for Sol, Sol and Anemone get close to finishing the year of natural function required before qualifying for blockers around the same time. So Anne waits until she's in a room with both of them to give them the reminder practically out of the blue. If another puberty option is chosen for Sol, Anne will mention that Anemone is about to get her blocker. |

And then try to start a sudden wedding for the two on the spot. | |

In Romeo and Juliet, while the Nurse is technically not one of Juliet's parents, she otherwise fits this trope to a T. She's filled with embarrassing stories about Juliet as a toddler, and she loves to tell them at great length long after her audience has lost interest. Juliet has to beg her to shut up on more than one occasion. Then throw in that this is Shakespeare, many of her rambling stories included double-entendres about how Juliet is expected to have sex and become pregnant very soon. |

Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman. The main character, 'Fat Charlie' Nancy, is convinced that he's got the most embarrassing dad on the face of the planet. He's probably right. One could rightfully consider his dad, Anansi, to be a literal GOD of embarrassment. The nickname "Fat Charlie" was bestowed on him by his dad, and just stuck all those years, even though he's not really that fat, because Dad's a Physical God whose penchant as The Nicknamer blends right into his power as a Reality Warper. | |

Since Noctis is 20 and surrounded by his Vitriolic Best Buds at this point, he finds this quite embarrassing. (Other scenes show that Noctis hates the caution and formality everyone in his family has to act with.) | |

This even shows up in The Bible: Mary does this to Jesus twice. First at the Finding in the Temple, where she asks him where he’s been while he’s wowing everyone in the temple with his answers to their questions, and second at the Wedding at Cana, where she tells him there’s no more wine before he even starts his miracle. |

The Spier parents from Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda, especially Simon's father. It makes Simon uncomfortable when some of his father's jokes toe the line of Dude, Not Funny! while Simon is still in the closet. | |

Connie and Walt in the comic strip Zits both drive Jeremy crazy by doing this. There is no Aesop, though, and Jeremy drives Connie and Walt crazy in plenty of other ways, so it evens out. Zits also exaggerates the trope at times by making Jeremy embarrassed by his parents' innocuous actions: Jeremy takes some extreme measures to avoid parental embarrassment, to the point where when his father was still driving him to school Jeremy got out to walk the rest of the way at the end of their driveway. One Sunday strip had Jeremy and his friends swapping stories about their parents' embarrassing habits, such as Hector's dad going outside to get the paper in his underwear every morning. As they're talking, Connie and Walt come in wearing gaudy gardening outfits, with Connie saying "Jeremy, if you need us, we'll be out tending to the arugula, dressed like this in broad daylight." Cue Jeremy declaring "Checkmate," and his friends conceding defeat. Occasionally his parents do this on purpose— in the pre-cell phone days of the comic, Walt got Jeremy to end an overlong phone call by picking up the extension and singing "Puff the Magic Dragon" into it. While accompanying himself on the accordion. In one comic Jeremy's dad uses the phrase "That's what I'm talking about", causing Jeremy to shudder. According to Jeremy, when his dad uses slang that's the least bit modern, the world feels out of balance and weird. Cue his dad using VERY outdated slang that even confuses his mom, which relieves Jeremy who states that things are back to normal. |

While North starts with two neglectful parents that inspire his son to "divorce" them and become a free agent, the parade of potential parents he meets afterwards are mostly this (along with stereotypes). The writer also said his inspiration was seeing his nine-year-old looking at himself and his wife at the dinner table "with the expression on his face you could tell he was thinking, 'I can do better than these two.'" | |

Alice's parents in The Magicians, on the one occasion she returns home with her new boyfriend Quentin, seem determined to come across as embarrassingly eccentric as possible: her father spends all the time renovating the house with magic, making it unlivable and making himself even more miserable in the process; her mother spends all her time studying fairy music that may not actually exist, and lectures Quentin unprompted on the subject for almost an hour - during which one of her breasts slips out of her cardigan and she barely notices. In between cringing in embarrassment, Alice makes it clear that this actually happens to a lot of adult magicians who can't figure out what to do with their lives. | |

In The Glass Castle, Jeannette's parents become a source of shame for her after she moves to New York, and they follow years later to be with their children. She had grown up in poverty as her father drank like a fish and her mother suffered wild mood swings, and after moving to New York, her parents became homeless squatters, leaving Jeannette reluctant to tell the truth about them for fear of losing her status and career. | |

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Susan Heffley causes her sons a lot of embarrassment and ruins their fun with her bit trait of a Cloudcuckoolander and her tendency to pop up at Greg's school when he has left his bag or lunchbox at home. Rowley's parents are the sort who won't allow their son to watch anything rated above "G". Which might account for Rowley's current state of mind. However, Rowley doesn't find them embarrassing. |

League of Legends has a case of this where the generational gap is vastly distant, but the effect is still the same. Sivir is an acclaimed treasure hunter/mercenary who just happens to be the last remaining descendant of Azir, the last emperor of the Shuriman Empire who was recently resurrected centuries after he and the land fell due to ancient cataclysm. He wants his last remaining family member to take her rightful place in the Resurgent Empire, but Sivir is completely uninterested and wants to continue operating on her own, creating some genuine friction as well as endearingly awkward laughs. | |

Particularly cruel version from Truffaut's The 400 Blows: Once Antoine's parents learn that he's been skipping school, they decide to punish him in the most humiliating way imaginable to a preteen boy — by going down to school, storming into his classroom, slapping him in front of all his classmates, and letting him (and everyone else in the room) know, in no uncertain terms, that there's more to come once he gets home. They then leave him to stew in terror and suspense for the rest of the school day. | |

In Tales of the Abyss, Anise Tatlin's parents are the most embarrassing parents to ever live due to being so bad at telling when people scam them out of their money with unbelievable offers. They even think the thieves who stole from them had a very good reason to do so, which isn't even the case. Their overall stupidity is just perhaps the reason their daughter turned into a conniving Gold Digger desperate to solve their horrendous financial situation. | |

It turns out to be Kayla's dad. Kayla's dad is also so embarrassing at home with his constant attempts to convince her You Are Better Than You Think You Are that Kayla has to negotiate with him that on Fridays she gets to do whatever she wants at the dinner table, which means ignoring him in favor of her phone. | |
