do your parents have favoritism? are you one of their favorite kids? i think my parents favor my other sibling over me. i got this feeling a long time ago and i just shrug it off but as time goes by it's getting more evident and i feel more alienated. i hate feeling like this. does anyone out there feel the same way?

yes i guess because i can feel it, but in fearness with my parents, maybe its not really favoritics on their part. with my kids, we're trying very hard not for them to think that we have favorite.we treat them equally as much as we could.

it always happens, even you must be doing it but you just dont know it yet. if i ask you who you love more, your father or your mother the answer cannot be i love them both equally! it is human nature, it is good if you can shrug off things like this, just shows that you are mature enough to handle things like this.

thanks for the response... yes, i'm aware it's human nature but can they just hide their favoritism? i mean it's so obvious that i feel left out even not respected at all because i'm the eldest and they do things that i don't know. i want to get this out of my chest or i'll explode because i couldn't confront them they just might think i'm jealous or something. i want to scream to them "hello i'm here or i was here all along and nobody told me what's going on!!!".
