[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My SIL is convinced that one of my kids is the favorite, and tells her children so regularly, even about things that, from where I sit, don't seem like favoritism. It's not always clear cut. [/quote] It's only not clear to the one with the favorite.[/quote] Agreed. My MIL will get gifts for DH's older children (first marriage) not our kids who are younger. DH is aware but will just twist it. I think it's terrible when grandparents do that. Despite this wants weekly updates and video calls. Older kids don't message or call her often. Maybe once a year. [/quote] 100% this. It's blatantly obvious to those who aren't the favorites. The kids see it especially as they get older. We've just stopped contacting the grandparents as much and asking them to do stuff because we know we'll be put on the back burner to the favorite. It's not worth it-it's their loss. My kids are older teens. [/quote]
