I've moaned on here about this before but im fed up and need a moan.
My inlaws are so one sided in their affections and with their time. They have my neice 2 night a week and god knows how many days. She seems to be there whenever we ring and i'm always hearing mil going on about she knitted her this or made her curtains and a duvet cover blah blah. None of this for my 3 kids.
We live much further awway from in laws than bil and sil but when in laws come up this way to 'visit' they either pop in for a short visit then spend rest of week sight seeing and not seein us or they bring the bil and sil with the grandchild they have constantly in their care meaning my kids take 2nd place again.
I find as time goes on it just gets me more and more wound up. They are all over the other grandchild who is a few months younger than my middle child so not even first grandchild syndrome yet never ring us or make an effort to see us. They are retired and are always away for weekends etc whenever they don't have other gchild. Mil also goes on about 'oh we never get time with your lot, we miss them blah blah' and i always say well come up anytime but she doesn't take me on or says 'oh we have 'other grandchild' wed and fri this week, oh lets see how the weather is blah blah'
Whats wrong with my kids? Why don't they love them like they love the other?
