At times a child may seem to prefer spending time with one parent more than the other. The neglected parent may end up feeling hurt. If you are experiencing this type of situation with your child, don’t take it personally. Young children go through phases and this is just a phase.

This article may be true to others, but I don't think it's like that for me. I am really close to my mother, but not with my father. This is because I spent more time with my mother when I was a young child. My father often went to foreign country or left early in the morning, and came back late at night. He did not have any time to play with me. That's why I became more close with my mother, because she was always there for me.But that's not the only thing... I have a handicap sister, and she is unable to walk. My father lived with us for 16 years in Japan, but when we moved here he bought the house that was completely disadvantage to her. Now, he is living in another state away from us, found a woman at internet, and it seems to me that he does not care about us anymore... my mother can't speak English, and we can't afford to go back to Japan or be able to live their without the 60% paycheck from my father. I despise myself to be still dependent on him, but I don't really dislike him. I am disappointed, but do not feel other emotion towards him. He is more like my uncle than my father, so I am not really close to him at all. My sister seems to feel the same way about this. This is not a phase that we are in, it's just that all the factor of him not paying attention to us caused this. I wouldn't say this article is totally untrue, but it's not always the one who gives discipline are less close to the child. Yes, my father was strict, but my mother was also strict. That's why I had to post my thought out here.

Dads get hashed because they pay the consequences of working to compete and provide and pay for mistakes of mothers who play carelessly with kids and pricelessly No wonder so many men elect to have no children dads get screwed in our society

What happens when the favored parent seems to revel in being the favorite to the point of gloating?
