My PIL leave close to one of their granddaughters whereas we live some distance away. It seems that every conversation on the telephone has to come back to or have some reference to other granddaughter - this morning DH spoke to them and said that our DD had been sick this morning (only 11 months old) and so was off colour. FIL mentioned that other grandaughter had chickenpox, even though they had told me during the week about that. I just get fed up with hearing about her every conversation - I know they see a lot of her and the other granddaughter and grandson don't get mentioned much. It is like they are already playing favourites - always telling us how lovely she is and if our daughter could be like her etc etc. On top of that we get "poor old Jane" - my husband's sister and how hard done by she is and she doesn;t have very much money (her and hubby can afford Sky TV and designer haircuts and the like). Not that many years ago FIL said horrible things about his daughter - how thick she was etc - now she can do no wrong.
They are the sort of people to play favourites unfortunately and I am annoyed it is happening so early when all of the children are so young.
