[QUOTE="klmno, post: 481655, member: 3699"] JMHO- there are problems when a parent continuously favors a 'good' child over a bad one- the 'bad' one will never be seen any other way. on the other hand if a sibling has always taken a backseat to a one that is always getting the attention or 'help' from a parent due to issues, that causes problems, too. The bottom line is that only you can figure out which way this is. But for your daughter trying to find her way in recovery, I strongly suggest against talking to her like she's a 6yo and telling her how to behave. I'd also suggest that you don't let either 'child' make this choice for you- you are the parent. [/QUOTE]
