[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems super unrealistic to expect anyone to like each of any group of people (even if they're children) equally. Add that older people just care less about what they're supposed to do and this all just seems normal to me. [/quote] Yes, perhaps it’s unrealistic. What shouldn’t be so damn difficult for these old ladies, though, is to spread the love, even if just the appearance of it, equally. You know, like at work. Good managers don’t show their favorite team member any special treatment because it’s demoralizing to others. They’re supportive, caring, and encouraging all around, because that’s what good managers do. So if your MIL is playing favorites to your SILs kids, feel free to opt out of any elder care responsibilities. She wasn’t a good manager to your team when it mattered. [/quote]
