I think this is the first time I've ever cried over Christmas, all because my inlaws favourite their other granddaughter over my daughter. They've taken the other grandchild out everywhere this Christmas, cinema, theatre, grotto, trip to see the reindeer, along with their daughter. All paid for. Probably other things too that haven't been plastered over Facebook! We never even got our Christmas Eve invite, despite asking what the plans were for this Christmas, they just replied saying they were seeing their daughter and other grandchild. Now to top it off, they've commented on Facebook saying they love their Christmas traditions. My daughter has been so confused wondering why she hasn't see her grandparents this Christmas. She's oblivious to most of it, although has recently starting asking a few things.
Christmas should be a time for laughter, not tears.
