[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Call Claire Lerner first thing Monday. She will change your life, your relationship with child, and save your marriage. She is outstanding. She often works hand in hand with an OT that is gifted at helping change challenging behaviors in difficult children. Good luck and just call Claire- you’ll be alright. [/quote]

The child doesn’t seem difficult though. [b]She’s behaving like any child would to being rejected by her mother. She also has to watch her mother love her two brothers unconditionally while rejecting her. That’s really hard for a kid. [/b]

I think the mom needs individual therapy. This isn’t a parenting issue so much as something very troubling is going on with OP. Maybe OP is conditioned to be on edge with other female family members because of her experience with her own mom and sister. I don’t know why she’s keeping her daughter at arms length, but she should try to figure it out. At a minimum send your daughter to full day preschool. This little girl doesn’t need to be rejected all day every day at home. That sounds hellish.

You can't tell me that the daughter isn't picking up on the obvious favoritism played by her own mother.  I'm sure that's at least a contributing factor.  
Similar to a PP, I wonder what this child's relationship is to her father?
