[QUOTE="mom23gsfg, post: 112758, member: 4445"] i wouldnt wish our lives or any of our childrens' lives on anyone...but i think that anyone that had to walk one day in our shoes would not be so judgemental i would try and start having my own family events under your rules(no putting down of your child and etc.)if they want to come ..if not its their loss not yours or your childs...as far as im concerned ive never seen or even heard of the perfect child..most children do "things" behind their parents backs and since they dont do them in front of the parent ,the parent often does not believe their child does these things....sometimes i have to think of it this way... my children are secure enough in my love for them that they are not afraid to show their true colors to me and could be themselves(that is what my sons counselor told me when i asked why he didnt behave as bad around certain people) cathyw190:sorry but i do not see how anyone could be so cruel as to leave out one child and not the rest,no matter how they behave....has anyone ever thought maybe things like this are some of the reason behind the bahavior towards them? i could never treat a child that way...in my home if theres not enough for everyone noone gets any. if i am around a child ,no matter how they behave, i treat them as i would my own. my cousin had a similiar experiences for years with her husband's family (she has a child from a previous marriage age 13)and one 8 yr old.his family would buy the one that was his things and not hers.even after being told off by herself and her husband they would still do these things. but last year the lil one got big enough and noticed what was going on... she picked up her gifts and handed them back to her aunt (his sis)and said no thankyou ,if you cant give my sissy presents i dont want them .....needless to say this christmas there was presents for both children [/QUOTE]
