[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not op, but I am not married, don't have kids, and am the unflavored sibling. The others are married with kids and I am the excluded black sheep. It sucks, makes me feel very alone, and I would like advice on dealing with it too,[/quote] I used to be in your situation as well and after I got married and had kids, I still feel like the unfavored one. In my case, I don't think my parents actually favor my brother. I think they are afraid of my SIL and know that she will hold it against them if they don't comply with her wishes and demands. With me, they know that I would never do that so my needs are often overlooked in favor of hers. It sucks but I blame it more on my brother and SIL than on my parents. On the other hand, I have really awesome in-laws and my husband's sister is great.[/quote] That was a really helpful advice. Talk about being self-involved.[/quote]
