My husband, son and I have lived in our neighborhood for 7 years, and my son is now 13. We have a close group of neighbors that get together quite often, of which we are a part of. Most of us are young couples with children - but my son is the oldest of the group. My question is this - one neighbor couple are grandparents and have no children at home. They have always hand delivered a doll or toy to the younger children in this group (ranges for the kids are 1 month to 11 years old - minus my 14 year old). I've always given them a gift of some sort and left it on their doorstep. My son was never (I mean, even when he was 7) part of the gift delivery from them. Am I being petty? I think now it is okay that he doesn't get one, now that he is older. But it sometimes hurt his feelings to see them skip our house and deliver to the others when he was young. It bothered me and still does. Am I being petty?
