Do you (secretly) have a favourite child?

I know we're not meant to favour one, but deep-down, do you? And what is it about that child which makes you feel just that tiny bit fonder towards them than the others? And how do you hide it from the other children?

Ds is my favourite by a street and a mile. DD is autistic and I have tried really hard, but...

I really don't think I do. I love them all the same but sometimes it's easier to be around one than the other.

That's all I'll say is, if you do have a favourite, make sure you keep it to yourself and NEVER let the children know it (as if you don't already know that ).

I prefer being around DS as he is just so utterly cute, funny and adorable. He also looks like me. DD who is older seems more highly strung, is much more demanding and I find her much, much harder to be around. So in that sense I guess you could say DS is my favourite, but I love them both equally and DS might get less cute and more demanding as he gets older so things could change.

I favour whichever one of them is behaving!!

I don't have a favourite. I was my mother's favourite. Fortunately my siblings have never held it against me.
