It's been this way my entire life but it especially been revealed to me when we were abandoned my mother left me in the system but got my sister back home. Her and my sister get along very well and team up against me. My Mother also favors my sister's son and doesn't treat my kids as well. She always says that my nephew is "special" and "there's just something about him" also "he will be something someday, look how beautiful he is". She never says anything even close to that about my kids, she never even asks about them anymore...just my nephew.

Just recently my Mom had made plans to ride up north to visit my sister, when I asked her if I could come and spend the weekend up north with them she said "who will take care of my dogs". When I suggested that my husband and kids stay the weekend at her house to make sure the dogs are cared for she refused indicating that my husband is unable to care for dogs.....the father of two toddlers, come on now.

She just doesn't want me to come. When I asked my sister to tell her she wanted me to come...there was silence, no reply. I just hung up.....I'm very hurt by this. I've always been the outcast in this family.
