[quote=Anonymous]Everything is about perspective--his, yours and theirs. If ILs give a gift to one kid and not the other it could be because its a gift appropriate for the older child and not the younger, because one does a sport/needs it etc, because they did something "good" and earned it. Also sometimes its about the parent/grandparent and not the kid. E.g. Typically every night my husband reads 1/2 to DS but about 5 min to DD. DD thinks its totally unfair. I know its because DH prefers one book over the other so his "effort" is the same for 30 min vs 5... There are always different perspectives. In our house "favoritism" occurs because one kid is more like the parent/grandparent and therefore their actions are understood vs not. Its up to us to try to see things from others perspectives. Or just stay out of it.[/quote]
