[quote=Anonymous]This happens with my in-laws, too. They often don't send anything for DS's birthday. They treat the other grandkids better -- but hey, they see them a lot more, too. We moved away when we got married. They weren't with DS very much as he grew up (their choice not to travel to us -- we always had to go to them). My son notices it, and he comments on it now -- but that's it. He knows that is just the way they are. I asked him if there was anything he needed (in terms of toys or presents, and he said no -- but he wondered why they didn't get him anything). I don't make excuses for the in-laws, but I also don't place any blame on them. I just say how lucky he is to have two sets of grandparents in his life. Kids are smart; give them a little more credit for just seeing it like it is and not dwelling on it. They won't dwell on it if you don't. [/quote]
