Do you love your children equally?

Good afternoon MyLotters.
I would like to ask you something. This is about our children. Me, I have six. They have different character, one is charming, one is sweet, one is with touch of arrogance, one is industrious, one is a mixture of 2 characters or 3 or 4, they are different. And as a mother, I am always accused that I love the other child more than the other. And I said and I keep insisting No, its not true. The truth is we have different attitude towards our children because they have different character also. They just misinterpret us. Don't you think so?

When you have a look on your hand you will see that even if you have five fingers, the five are different between each other. No one is equal to another one. That's the same what's happening to our children. They belong to us, to the same family, but they are quite different between them.
In my case, I have two children and they are very different to each other. But I still love them every one on his own way because of their difference but the quantity of love is the same. And it's normal that they get sometimes a bit jealous even when they are still small, that's their way to call your attention.

I agree with you each child id different when compared to others.At times when one child has done well we have to reward him.Similarly we have to reward or acknowledge the other child when they do well.Maybe our way of dealing gives rise to this feeling but there is no differentiation between children and slowly if we are consistent they shall understand us.

I love all my 4 children, but sometimes I like one more than the other! If one child is misbehaving, being rude or difficult, arguing, etc. then I will be annoyed with that child at the time. Of course, I still love all my kids no matter what they do, but it is easier to love a good child who behaves well, LOL! :-)
