Modern Family's 'Favourite Child Detector' is an interactive [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/family-center) app that will give you definitive proof of whether you are or are not given special treatment by your parents.

To get started with the app, it requires that you authorize it to sign in with Facebook, add a parent and other siblings to see who is the most loved, based on a parent's Facebook activity. A favorite is determined based on the amount of likes, comments and photos that a parent shares and it's even possible that your parents might even prefer a family dog or even somebody else's kid rather than you.

The funny ads promoting Modern Family were developed by the [FCB](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burger-to-king) agency in New Zealand, playing off the way modern families connect and communicate online.
