[quote=Anonymous] The issue is that your child has a problem with the preference. I was not my grandparents' favorite grandchild, and my kids are not my MIL's favorite grandkids (although they are my parents' ONLY grandkids). But I did not mind: I am mixed race and lived far away from my grandparents, who had to adjust. And my kids don't mind: my MIL dotes on her first grandkid because she had to care for him as a newborn and my kids were born when she was already frail and chronically ill with Parkinson's. So your job, as I see it, is to accept the situation, and have your child work his way to accepting that people have favorites and preferences. It doesn't mean his Grandma actively dislikes him. But clearly if he's uncomfortable by the different treatments, then you need to stop exposing him to it. [/quote]
