[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you may be the favored child, which is something the favored child is often unable to see. For the less-favored child, it can be very painful to be part of a family where things are constantly happening to remind them of their disfavored status. Also, your kids can have a relationship without exchanging gifts. Accept her offer to do away with gifts, but acknowledge your hope that you'll find ways to help the cousins get to know each other. Perhaps you could offer to visit them some time? That would give the kids a chance to know each other and your families a chance to connect without your parents there to influence the dynamic (if there is in fact a favoritism thing going on).[/quote]
