My husband and I have been married for over 20 years. We have 2 teenage children. His only sibling, a brother is on his second marraige with 5 children, 3 of them teenagers, all of whom I love. The problem is my mother-in-law(mil). She has, since day 1, favored my brother-in-law (bil). We all live in the same town. For the past 10 plus years she has bil and his family over to dinner at least once a week if not more. We are never invited. When confronted with all the favortism years ago, (in a gentle manner) she pretty much denied it. Things were better for a year or two then she slipped back into her old ways. She attends all my nieces and nephews sporting events and never attends my own childrens. My husband doesn't like to talk about it, although he agrees I know it is very hurtful to him. She always buys the other kids things, spends time with them, etc. but not with us. We never had a disagreement, my kids and my family are very nice well-rounded people. Why?
