Is anyone willing to admit they favour one child over another?
Love one more than another?
How do you deal with these feelings within your family?
Is it to do with which baby/child is the 'easiest'?
I am interested because I believe no child falls out with their parents for no reason i.e. stops speaking to them. However my mother (whom I can't stand) always uses the example of how you can have a family in which one sibling speaks to the parents and another doesn't. She believes it must be the child being difficult.
I recently read an article about mothers favouring one child over another and believe this could explain above scenario.
It is a taboo area but I am sure it happens more than we like to admit
