How do handle relative who think their child is more superior than mine? I have a relative who keep thinking she is more superior than me just because she has higher education, better relationship with my other family members. She used to call me stupid and make harsh comments about my family. I normally will just smile and walk away but recently I notice that she start treating my children badly just because some of my family members comment that my children is very obedient and well behaved. She even get upset if some of them get gift for my children even though her child also received it too. I try to avoid family gathering as I don't want my children to get treated badly but I find it unfair for my children. What can I do better to Ensure my children does not get boycott due to her selfishness?

It looks like she is of the jealous and insecure type. Maybe because everyone in your family likes you, she is unable to handle it and tries to remove her frustrations on you and your kids. You should just ignore her, but please do stand up for your kids because they need your support and no one should treat your kids badly. If possible speak to an elder member in your family and take their advice too.

My family and relatives love her more so there is no reason for her to feel that. I do stand up for my children but I just do know how to handle it well so that my kids don't feel that they are being boycotts just because of her.
