[quote=Anonymous]This situation is very foreign for an American-born person to read about, and it's just very difficult to comprehend what the issue is.  If my mother asked me if I wanted some  jewelry, and I said yes, and then she didn't give it to me, I'd immediately say, "then why did you even bring it up?"  But you didn't, so obviously the meaning behind the gift and the relationship is very different from the way it is in my house, and I think most American-born families.

It seems like the real issue is that you aren't sure how much your parents value you, and think they treat your SIL better and may like her better.  Basically, you don't think they like you enough.  I think you will see that most people with that problem on the board feel badly, but move on and just don't give their parents a lot of time or attention.  Maybe that is not an option for you.  But basically, most people in this country will say that if they don't treat you well enough, you should just go on with your own life and family and have less contact.[/quote]
