Before, she used to call round here all the time and bring gifts for my boys.
I am 29 and my sister is 25. She has had a tough time as it was a difficult pregnancy and she nearly miscarried a few times but my mum treats her as if she’s cut glass and keeps saying what a wonderful home her granddaughter will have.
My brother-in-law is a developer and loaded, while my husband drives vans and we live in a small semi – but as a dad he’s twice as loving.
Mum is posting endless photos of the new baby and hasn’t even asked what our boys want for Christmas.
I am getting angrier each day and do not want it to come to an argument, yet I do not know how to handle the situation.
DEIDRE SAYS: Don’t let sibling rivalry spoil what could be a happy extended family.
Your mum may feel she has spent a lot of time with your boys and now in order to be fair she needs to devote more time to your sister and the new baby.
Say the boys are missing her and invite her on a fun family outing.
Help them choose or make little gifts to give her – and for their little cousin.
