Favoritism

By Damnlife123 - 21/04/2009 02:39 - United States

Today, I was playing and laughing with my new baby boy. He was giggling, and it was adorable. Out of nowhere, I said, "You're my favorite!" Now I'm sitting here, talking to my two other children about how what I said earlier I didn't mean personally. They never want to talk to me again. FML

Hahaha You should, as a parent, know that you're never allowed to say that sentence, dear

Today, I was hanging out with my mother, older brother, and my newborn baby brother. I had been feeling upset and depressed about the new baby because I felt I would be overshadowed by him and I would get no attention. My mother assured me this would not happen and I accepted it. Then she told my baby brother that he was "her favorite." My depression just increased two-fold. FML.

YDI. Next time think before doing anything like that in front of your kids. Now you really need to work hard to fix this one.

#10, that is one of the few "other perspective" FMLs that was actually worth posting.

Unless you have Tourette's syndrome, there's no such thing as saying something on accident/out of nowhere If you were being silly and bonding with your kid, you say things like, "I love you!" and not, "OH SWEET JESUS you are so much better than my other kids." Especially given that your other kids were clearly AROUND. God, you're one of those ridiculously selfish mothers that has new babies when the older ones get too old to dress up and play with, aren't you? This is why parenting should have a qualifying exam. I only hope their dad isn't this stupid.

1. You don't know her at all, so you can't make assumptions about what type of person she is. 2. You probably don't have children of your own, so its not likely you'll even understand how she could say that. And 3. Where do you get off? Who the hell do you think you are to decide whether someone is qualified to be a parent or not? Do you think you would pass a parenting exam? I would think not. Get the f%$* off your high horse, and quit being a presumptuous douche bag.

You have just traumatized them for life. So, technically, **** their lives.

They'll get over it, kids bounce back easily. Just explain to them you meant he's your favorite BABY, just like your daughter is your favorite 3 year old and your other son is your favorite 5 year old (obviously you'd apply this to your kids actual sex and age). Just go buy them each some ice cream and a toy and you're golden.

wow, I seriously think it was just an accident. I say things I don't mean when playing with babies. Like "Aww, you're so cute" when, in reality, not all of them are. It's just fun to talk baby talk (lol) And, seriously, I'm pretty sure it probably was just an accident. And I'm pretty sure her kids won't hate her forever because when they're teenagers and he's in elementary school and she's giving all her attention to the little one, they're gonna be glad because they'll be able to get out of the house and get into trouble. That's how I feel with my little sister. So seriously, give her a break.

They will never forget nor forgive this. Hope for your sake this baby boy of yours will become rich enough etc to take care of you when you cant because your other kids will let you rot, as they should!
