Guest guest Posted July 12, 2001 Report Share Posted July 12, 2001 That's ok, Tracey, i know the feeling. Our eldest was and probably still is the favourite, and poor little Hannah, just gets left behind. Birthdays come, in the past, the relatives would all make the effort to come to Leah's, but when Hannah's came along, they would struggle to get here, or not at all, and when they do they hardly pay any attention. Now both of them are at school, i just concentrate on inviting a few girls from school, i tell the relatives that is't on, but i simply say, that if they cannot make it don;t worry, as they will have friends anyway!!!, to heck with them, either treat equally, or forget it!!! overlooked Hi Everyone I have a question. Does anyone else find that their autistic daughter is overlooked for things. For example, Sat. is our oldest daughter Coral's birthday she will be 11. My Aunt and one of my cousins always buy for her but when Skylar's birthday comes around in October they never get her anything. They will ask if Coral enjoyed the movie we took them too, but don't think to ask about Sky. These are just a couple of examples. I was wondering if anyone else has this problem? I told my Aunt the other day that if she wasn't going to buy for Skylar this year I would appreciate it if she didn't buy for Coral either. They seem to think that Skylar won't notice so its okay if they just don't bother. I am getting very frustrated with their attitude. That entire part of my family (Aunt, Uncle, and cousins) seem to treat Skylar like she won't notice, won't be hurt or doesn't care. I am really tired of it. Sorry all, just had to vent!
