Mouse click doesn't activate c# MDI form

Why doesn't clicking anywhere on a child form (not just the title bar) in a MDI application activate the form in C#, as in VB.NET. Was this by design? Must one actually call the Activate() event

I have seen other posts on this issue but no responses

In VB6 the activate events could be fired for either the MDI parent or the
child depending on which window was active before. I had to check for
activate events in both cases. Maybe it is similar in .NET and C#? Have you
tried looking for those events in both parent and child?
