     We have two daughters: Kristen is seven years old and Kelly is four. Last Sunday evening, we invited
some people home for dinner. I dressed them nicely for the party, and told them that their job was to join
Mommy in answering the door when the bell rang. Mommy would introduce them to the guests, and then
they would take the guests' coats upstairs and put them on the bed in the second bedroom.
     The guests arrived. I introduced my two daughters to each of them. The adults were nice and kind and
said how lucky we were to have such good kids.
     Each of the guests made a particular fuss over Kelly, the younger one, admiring her dress, her hair and
her smile. They said she was a remarkable girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age.
     I thought to myself that we adults usually make a big "to do" over the younger one because she's the one
who seems more easily hurt. We do it with the best of intentions.
     But we seldom think of how it might affect the other child. I was a little worried that Kristen would feel
she was being outshined. I was about to serve dinner when I realized that she had been missing for twenty
minutes. I ran upstairs and found her in the bedroom, crying.
     I said, "What are you doing, my dear?"
     She turned to me with a sad expression and said,"Mommy, why don't people like me the way they like
my sister? Is it because I 'm not pretty? Is that why they don't say nice things about me as much?"
     I tried to explain to her, kissing and hugging her to make her feel better.
     Now, whenever I visit a friend's home, I make it a point to speak to the elder child first.
