No.
Do you?

Namechangetempissue · 08/07/2017 21:52

No and that is absolutely honest

Patriciathestripper1 · 08/07/2017 21:52

Yes Blush

Areyoufree · 08/07/2017 21:52

Yes. Unfortunately, not one of mine.

SaucyJack · 08/07/2017 21:53

No. I don't like any of them.

Dragonflycushion · 08/07/2017 21:53

No. I love them equally but love different things about each of them.

OuchLegoHurts · 08/07/2017 21:53

No, love them for different reasons but just as fiercely. One can annoy me a lot more than the other but she can also enchant the hell out of me with her character. Anyway, the answer is no.

MumBod · 08/07/2017 21:54

Yes, I like Rudy off The Cosby Show. Cute.

Buxtonstill · 08/07/2017 21:54

My Mum does. And it's not me Sad. Although she deludes hesrself she treats us all equally.

Pyjamaface · 08/07/2017 21:55

Yes but i only have 1 child so it's not a hard decision

TondelayaDellaVentamiglia · 08/07/2017 21:55

dd has renamed our Messenger chat...I show on her page as "My favourite parent", she shows as "My favourite child" on my end :o

QuackDuckQuack · 08/07/2017 21:56

Mine varies, it's the one who's asleep at the time.

Iloveanimals · 08/07/2017 21:56

Yes. But he's the only one I have.

early30smum · 08/07/2017 21:56

I have 2 DC. One is 8 and one is 4. I can honestly say I love both equally. BUT I like one of them more than the other at different times depending on their behavior! Sometimes I like the older one better, sometimes the younger. But I love them both equally.

user1471451355 · 08/07/2017 21:57

Yes. Whichever one is asleep. Wink

(No, of course I don't. I love them differently but equally.)

NerdyBird · 08/07/2017 21:58

Yes, but I only have the one so she kind of has to be!

stopfuckingshoutingatme · 08/07/2017 21:58

I enjoy hanging out with one more as they are easier company ! But I love them the same

Ecureuil · 08/07/2017 21:58

No. They're only 3.5 and 2 but I absolutely don't have a favourite. They're both amazing and exasperating in equal measure.

loobylou10 · 08/07/2017 21:58

Absolutely no! I love them both but for different reasons. One is grown up and lovely, thoughtful and kind, the other is cheeky, cute and funny. Couldn't chose between them

weeblueberry · 08/07/2017 21:58

No. There's one I understand more (because her personality is much closer to mine) and can predict more easily etc. But I don't love her more than my other daughter.

PTANameChange · 08/07/2017 21:58

I don't have a favourite son, but I do have a favourite daughter. (Only girl to two big brothers Grin )

ToeKneeChestNut · 08/07/2017 22:00

Good call, MumBod. Rudy for me too.

Trixiebelle16 · 08/07/2017 22:33

Yes me Grin

elQuintoConyo · 08/07/2017 22:35

I have 5. The middle one is my favourite. The others can go suck eggs Hmm

TitsalinaBumSquash · 08/07/2017 22:35

No. I think it's awful that parents do have favourites and then kid themselves that they manage to not show it.
