They love me in their own ways. In theory being the least troublesome, most self sufficient & thoughtful, involved with them & generous would lead to me being favored above the other two. In reality though the others require so much time & energy cause such destruction and pain that my quiet life can go under the radar.

@Mrsbetweenfatandfit That's a good point, and one that many don't appreciate. Parents can love their children equally, but because children have individual needs, parents might not treat children in identical ways.
