[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, i feel your pain and understand what you are saying. I want to point out that your spending time with the toddler may not be the cause of DD's preference for her dad. I have an only DC and also the main parent. DH is very hands off and not around much due to travel. DS prefers DH and while it does sting a bit, i can see why. I'm the one who makes sure homework gets done, reminds DS to brush teeth, have a bath and all the necessary day to day stuff. DH doesn't do any of that stuff - plays with DS once a week but takes him out for some fun stuff once a week or every other week. He doesn't like to correct DS so DS considers him more fun. I wouldn't let it bother you too much. DC will eventually appreciate all that you are doing. As others have mentioned don't let DD know that it bothers you. I'm sure she loves you too and doesn't realize you are hurt by her preference.[/quote]
