[quote=Anonymous]I think sometimes jealousy is a personality trait. My SIL is always jealous. When I had young kids and she didn’t, she was jealous because she thought my kids got all the attention. When she had young kids and I had elementary age kids she was jealous and that I didn’t have diapers to change. She has told me I have no idea how lucky I am that my house is small and easy to clean. Recently the grandparents did something fun with my kids and hers weren’t invited because they were visiting their other grandparents and doing something fun with them. On the other hand there are definitely times when someone is mourning a significant loss (e.g. if she’s 40 and coming to terms with likely never getting married or having kids) when temporary jealousy can be an issue, and the appropriate thing to do is to be gentle (e.g. don’t whine about sleepless baby nights to your friend with a recent stillbirth). Which is it? [/quote]
