[quote=Anonymous]My family is very fortunate in that we have the time, money, and resources to give our kids (7 and 9 girls) a healthy, stimulating, and fun lifestyle.  We are involved in their schools, planned vacations, etc for examples.  My niece from my sister's side live a state away and always visit us (we visit them too).  She always stay with us during the summer because we enjoyed the kids relationship.  We love her as our own daughter.  She is 10 now and starting to see differences between her and our family, especially the time and resources we give our kids.  Her parents love her (sometimes even love our kids even more)and will buy her anything she wants, and they are actually wealthy.  But she resents them for not being like us with our life style.  She compares grudgingly what she doesn't have with her cousins.  Would you tell her to not think of suchthings, and people love in different ways.  We do talk to the parents but they always say they are too busy with their work. Ignore it? Tell her life is not fair?  Just want to see if you guys have had similar experiences [/quote]
