Where does it say she doesn't love her child?  She just feels insecure about the comparisons and worries about how successful her kid will be.  OP, I can totally relate - no one would ever question my love for my child.  I am a doting mom and I adore him.  But he does have a diagnosis of a language disorder and as he gets older, it is more and more evident that he is behind his peers.  I have no idea what his prognosis is because he is so young, but I think that he will have to work extra hard to keep up, and that makes me a little sad and frustrated.  I deal with these feelings by making sure he will always be financially provided for (I posted upthread about holding property for him).  I also find it really easy to focus on all his wonderful and good qualities.  I am also surrounded by really great people who don't compare notes on their kids.  [/quote]
