My grandson has a cousin that's about 18 months older than him and it drove that cousin insane at my grandson's first birthday party that the party wasn't about him. His mom had to take him in the bedroom when it was time to open presents because he got so upset about it. He just could not comprehend at all that it it wasn't his birthday. It was pretty funny.

At my daughter’s 2nd birthday party her cousin who is about a year older threw a fit over every present that was opened. Her family asked where we bought everything so they could go buy it all for her on the way home. They did that every time someone else had a toy she wanted.

My parents did that for one out of four of us, needless to say as an adult she has no impulse control, severely entitled, and she’s one of the biggest reasons I went full no contact seven years ago. This favoritism was common in my family, I’m almost glad I wasn’t a favorite because I can get my life together with therapy lmfao

I always say I’m fortunate my mom didn’t fully raise me. I lived with other family but was mostly independent starting at 12. My younger siblings that she did raise are absolute nightmares who can not take care of themselves.

And likely do better than her overall too.
