Lately I generally don't feel welcome around my family and I feel more like and aquaintance.
My Mother would never admit it but I know that she favours my Older Sister and my nephew over me and my Daughter.
I can deal with it I always have done but as my daughter is getting older she is starting to notice and its not fair.
For instance:
If we go out shopping my nephew normally kicks up a fuss because he doesn't like to sit in the trolley so they let him get out to walk and this makes my dd want to be out because her cousin is,but then when I get her out they moan that I shouldn't let her run around the shops
.
My dd is older than my nephew so she always gets the blame, if she goes near him the assume thats she is going to push him over or something so they scream for dd to get away,my nephew has got issues with sharing toys and if my DD has any of his toys and he wants to play with it he gets it back. But if my nephew has my Dd toys and she goes to take it they shout yet again and so Dn is playing with that share and don't be spiteful. They never tell my nephew off and he jumps on my Dd sometimes and pulls at her legs and they just laugh it off.
I'm a single parent and my sister lives with Dn and her partner so plenty of help.But my mother is always looking after my nephew and having him for sleepovers because they always tend to have nights out or go to the cinema and for a meal. My DD is older and the only time she sleeps at my mothers is if I sleep aswell. I don't have nights out unless on a rare occasion.
My mother is constantly telling me how to raise my daughter saying she should be potty trained by now. She should be talking in proper sentences, the list goes on, she is two year old.
Whenever they come to my house they just sit down and let me run around after them,they don't really know when to leave and if it end up tp be quite late or past a time they wanted to stay they end up kicking off with me and blaming me saying I'm always at yours you never let me have time to myself
