[quote=Anonymous]I have a situation somewhat similar to this in my family. My mother has preferenced my niece over my son in terms of paying for college. My niece is exceedingly bright and my son has learning disabilities (although he is successfully attending college). My mother seems to think it is OK to discuss with me all the extra help she is giving my niece. Her attitude is - of course I would understand because my niece is so bright. There are no financial reasons for doing what she is doing - we all have money to pay for college. My way of handling this is two fold: 1. My niece and her parents are wonderful people. I am not letting this weird behavior on my mother’s part affect my relationship with them. 2. I have told my mother that this behavior on her part is hurtful to me. I have told her in no uncertain terms that I don’t want to hear anymore about it (and she has pretty much honored that request). [/quote]
