[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve watched my MIL play favorites toward my SIL’s kids for many years. It’s usually not blatant, but it’s still clear. I’d like to hear from the MIL’s / grandmothers themselves. Do you think it’s ok to do this? Are you aware you’re doing it? Do you care how it’s perceived by the children? By their parents?[/quote] My mom goes the extra mile to make sure nobody is the favorite however, I know that in her heart, my kids are favorites. My dad blatantly favors my kids but I'm also his favorite child and only girl. My ILs love my nieces the most because they are their daughter's children. So, in our families, the daughters' offspring are favorites. I'm curious to see the patern in families with only girls or boys. I have only boys but mine are young. My grandparents DNGAF about any of the grandkids, so their disinterest was shared equitably. [/quote]
