You should be hurt, sad and intolerant with your DH's attitude of refusing to equally share care for your toddler.

Instead you are focused on appropriate feelings of an 8 year old.

Talk about misplaced emotions![/quote]

OP here. Maybe you're right. However, I was the one who suggested to have a second kid (he agreed,  but now regrets it). We agreed that I'd take care of the toddler more since he would have been happy with one. I don't mind, I love my toddler. I just didn't realize my relationship with my #1 would suffer as a result.

Wow this is messed up [/quote]

I have to agree. You guys agreed he would just ignore the little one? For how long? That’s crazy

I think having a preference can be very normal but it’s happening in the setting of some messed up stuff so I would be worried it’s because she already understands that she has a different relationship with her parents that the younger one does and she’s reacting strongly to that. You have to be the adult and make sure you get time with your oldest op. And your husband has to be a parent to your toddler, not a fun uncle. [/quote]
