    I'm not rude to the two other or anything, I help them and behave around them like I would with, say, the kids of a work mate that you like. I take interest in them, I can toss them a favour.... But I would not let their well being and education interfere too much with my life.
    I expressed myself poorly there. I don't mean you need to try to deceive them into thinking they mean as much to you. The idea is one of equal treatment. Think of employers, who are legally allowed to despise any class of people they like, but still may not discriminate against them in hiring or treatment on the job. The same kind of principle applies.
