[quote=Anonymous]It wasn't until I had kids of my own that I looked back on my own childhood and saw the inequity between my sister and I. It brought up a lot of feelings of being 2nd best and how I wasn't ever the favorite. My parents never took my side. It didn't really start bothering my until I hit my 30s. Even now with kids, my parents compare everything my kids do to my sister. wtf. "She's probably going to be a great athlete just like Aunt Larla!" "She got Aunt Larla's blue eyes." "She's energetic like Aunt Larla!" I finally told my parents they couldn't discuss my sister and didn't they remember ANYTHING about my childhood? Why did they never compare my children to me? My parents couldn't even remember if I was a happy baby or when I slept through the night. I can't talk to my sister anymore without getting upset about our childhood now. [/quote]
