Previous survey conducted by researchers from the University of Manchester’s Faculty of Life Sciences also showed that each parent actually has a favorite child or children in the family pet. The result of these findings have even been published in the journal Ecology in 2007.

“There is favoritism in each family and this will have a lifelong impact for everyone,” said Dr. Libby Ellen Weber, a child psychologist in Washington DC, as reported by Dailyrecord.

Some people argue that treating children with favoritism is cruel. In his book, The Favourite Child, Dr. Libby also describes a favorite son would be cruel if the parent treats the child is a special pet constantly or consistently.

“Most important is the appreciation experienced by the child reflect the emotional needs of parents for spoiling their children, not because the child’s behavior. Thus, although parents have a favorite son in the family, they still will make the child with the same standards, so that the atrocities will not happen,” explained Dr Libby.

However, if the parents are very conspicuous favoritism to the child’s love for her beloved, then it can have dire consequences. Children who lack attention could feel that he is not an important person in the family and cause it to have low self-esteem or self hatred, as reported by the Helium.

“Actually, parents can minimize the damage to the psychological and emotional scars caused by the favorite child syndrome (syndrome of children’s favorite). One of them by recognizing that you do have a favorite son,” said Dr. Libby.

Dr. Libby explained favoritism should be openly discussed in families and parents should make themselves more aware of things that potentially damage the harmony of family and children’s emotions ..
