To stress my children will think I have a favourite

I don’t, exactly, but one of my children is so easy (most of the time!) I barely know I have her, the other is full on, rambunctious, boisterous, gets into altercations and arguments and I have to step in …

It worries me as I don’t want them to feel I love one more than the other but in the other hand … one is so easy

All my children think I have a favourite, the funny part is they all think it's them!
It's not in anyway related to their behaviour or how much trouble they are.
I really wouldn't worry about it, just show and tell them you love them. It's that simple

All my children think I have a favourite. They claim it is the one who is furthest away from me in terms of distance at that particular time.

They are not wrong.

I tell my kids, i dont have a favourite child, but if i did it would be my DIL 😁

Both my children think I have a favourite. They both think it’s the other one. I don’t have a favourite but do worry the easy one has a point as the other has autism and therefore takes up far more of my time.
