How often, if ever, do you feel more joy for someone else's achievement than you do for one of your own achievements?

In this question I am not implying that one would not feel genuine joy for the achievements of others, rather how often does that joy really surpass the joy you would feel it it were your own achievement.
Tip for best answer: M$1.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The first thing that comes to my mind would be to answer, "When it is your child's achievement".

Don't we parents "preen" and glow when our child is in a school play or musical, or wins a scholastic award, or graduates from high school or college, or marries, or celebrates a special anniversary, or especially has a child of his or her own?

What fantastic feelings that take a parent out of his or her own life!!

On the other hand, you want your children to feel joy for your achievements, too!!

I do, frequently, when that someone else is one of my children, or my husband, or someone that I have taught.

I agree when it is your child. Since I started homeschooling my son he is doing so well that I feel joy every day at how far he has come and what he has achieved.
