We all know that family dynamics can be complicated, but what happens when a grandmother’s favoritism towards one grandchild turns into a dangerous situation? A mother of twins shared her story, detailing how her husband’s grandmother, who lives with them, has been treating her 5-month-old son and daughter very differently. The grandmother, referred to as ‘F’, has been showering the baby boy with gifts and affection while barely acknowledging the baby girl. But things took a turn for the worse when F’s neglect put the baby girl in grave danger.
