[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My SIL is convinced that one of my kids is the favorite, and tells her children so regularly, even about things that, from where I sit, don't seem like favoritism.

It's not always clear cut.  [/quote]

It's only not clear to the one with the favorite.[/quote]

+1. The favorite in our family would say the same even though it's 100% obvious to every one else that there's favoritism. It sad to me.. parents are creating a divide between siblings that doesn't need to be there. They're open about their favoritism... once we had kids it really tanked what was a good relationship.

DH has two other siblings besides this SIL.  I've asked them both, because she is so insistent that there's favoritism, and they both say they don't see it.

He's not giving unequal time, or unequal gifts.

Well duh, they're not going to tell you because your the favorite family.  And you're an IL.  They just don't want to piss you off.  I guarantee it's noticeable.  Have you asked the other SILs?[/quote]

DH has two sisters, and I asked the other one.

I've also asked the SIL who claims it, and she isn't able to give examples that make sense to me. [/quote]
