On one hand, parents DO have favorite children. We all have favorites. I would be ashamed of myself, as a parent, to say it out loud but if I had children, the one that would be my favorite would be the one that I get along with the best and I bet to lose that favorite child would be a lot more painful than to lose a child that you still love and hold dear, but not as much as your favorite child.
On the other hand, I know that certain parents have children that are more intelligent or more successful than the other children and it almost seems like a waste of life for the successful child to go whilst the "useless" child lives on.
I know it sounds very harsh, but it's human nature.
Can you believe someone would actually say this?
