To be jealous on behalf of my children (godparents behaviour)....

my daughters have lovely godparents (sis in law) who spends loads of time with us and them. No probs there. My ds godparents (sis and bro in law) don't spend as much time. All godparents have no children of their own, but my sons godparents have just spent loads of time with other friends children, taking millions of photos and videos etc. Just wish they'd put the same energy into that with MY son, their godchild and nephew. AIBU to feel jealous on behalf of my son?
My ds is 14 months old, so plenty of time to get to know him, I know, so maybe just excited about meeting the other children (who are also of same age). But i feel ds is hard done by? I feel i am being irrational - what are your thoughts?

i would feel your your ds too, but unfortunately there isnt much you can do, if you say anything it will just look petty.

It's a hard one I am Godmother to 4 beautiful girls 2 live in london and 2 in Hertfordshire and I see the ones in London at least every other day I would love to spend more time with my other ones but its hard to get over there and expensive also I work fulltime.

Maybe you could take your son to see them.

Are you jealous that other GP spend more time with your daughters, than GP do with your son? Could it be that ds's GP just dont have as much spare time?

Or jealous that ds's GP spent time with other children?
