[quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry you have such a had situation. While I'm afraid I can't advise you what to do, I would caution you not to try to compensate to try to equalize for your daughter. A branch of my extended family had two daughters. Parents felt that grandparents favored one child, so they tried to compensate. Expecting grandparents to give bigger/more presents to one child, they would give bigger/more presents to the other. If grandparents did something nice for their "favorite", parents would try to match it. Grandparents felt that parents were playing favorites and tried to do more for the grandchild they felt the parents were slighting. They ended up in an endless cycle of bitterness that split the family apart. [/quote]
