[quote=Anonymous]This was the situation in my family growing up. It just was what it was. My older sister got lucky and the rest of us learned that life isn’t fair and we’re not entitled to something just because someone else gets it. It was a bit of a family joke that we had fun with. Even though my godparents rarely did anything for me other than an extra hug, my mother taught us to value our god parents regardless of physical gifts and that the relationship wasn’t one way. I still send mine a Christmas card in her retirement home 40 years later even though my mom has died and nobody else in my family speaks to her anymore. I think those were good lessons.[/quote]
