No. But I do treat each child differently. There is nothing wrong with that. Each of my kids has a different personality and love each of them equally. I reinforce this whenever I can.

Honestly, I can't really say that I have a favorite child because there are certain things that I love about each of my children and then there are certain things that I can't stand about each of my children. I have 3 boyz and a newborn baby girl and if I had to - I would have to say that I will probably be able to relate more to my daughter because I am a woman and we will more than likely have more in common. However I do still see myself in all of my boyz. When my oldest son was born I didn't think I could love anybody more and when approaching the birth of my 2nd son - I wondered if I could love him as much and I did by time I reached the 3rd I knew I had enough love to share - even if I had 1000 more children. So to answer your question I don't think I have a favorite - I've learned to appreciate something about all of them and thank God that he blessed me with each one.

Good Question!
I am a mom of 3 kids.
Each of them are unique and I treat them all the same.
Far as favoritism is concerned, I do have a "special" love for my middle child. She and I have been through much more and I've bonded with her really well plus she shows more caring characteristics toward me than my other two kids. I show my love for all of my children the same way, and would discipline her just the same, and would give my life for all of my children if I ever have the option to do that....

Sometimes its not the child that is the favorite,but a childs actions that are favorite. This I believe is why a parent should not say that they have a favorite child because at times we ALL fall short of making the right discisions

Yeah, sort of. Our first born, my daughter, is my #1. I love our 2nd child, but we don't have the same bond. I do treat them both according to their respective personalities and needs, so I don't really show any favoritism. Does that help?

I am a mother of three. And I don't have a favorite child. Parents shouldn't pick favorite among their childre. That is wrong.

I am not a mother, but I grew up with a brother.
I think our parents loved us equaly, but differently. Sometimes it seemed they loved one more than the other, but looking at the big picture, I don't think they had a favorite.

I have two sons. One of them is a beautiful, sweet, cuddly 9 month old who looks at me with such adoration.
The other son is 23 years old and only speaks to me when he needs something - money, laundry or some other favor. He drinks, curses, smokes too much and has a big chip on his shoulder and seems to think the world owes him...........I think the 9 month old is my favorite right now.

I love my children equally, no matter what.
I try to give them equal attention and because they are both at different steps in their lives I have to react differently to each situation that comes up.
I hope that my children never feel like one is better than the other.
because I know I have enough love for everyone in my family.

I only have one, so picking favorites isn't hard. But my sister always told me which of her 3 was her favorite. Now that he's older though, lol, I'm not so sure she'd be so quick to repeat that... he's givin' her a little grief.
