[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think some parents/families have certain things that they plan to do for either all of their kids, their daughter, their sons, their first borns, etc. I am sure your parents decided at his birth he would someday receive this diamond for his future wife. 
My grandmother saved a ring of my birthstone for me but not any of her other grandchildren, at least none received family jewelry that I know about. She didn't have much jewelry and she never played favorites, it was just a birthstone that connected me to the ring.
I often think about what I would pass down to my children. Jewelry I want to collect for myself over the years that can one day be passed on to my children and/or grandchildren.

Is your issue with his girlfriend?

If you had a son, would you not want him to have any family jewelry? If he and his wife gave birth to your first granddaughter, would you want the diamond to someday be passed on to her?[/quote]

I actually really like his girlfriend. Don't appreciate that she and her mom are looking at wedding venues before she even gets engaged, but that is another story for another time. I want the stone to stay in the family for sure. [/quote]

Wow. This is none of your business. Your parents can use their money however they like and since you're an adult, you're not owed anything. You're not entitled to any aspect of the stone. How your future SIL plans her wedding -- none of your business! You'll get an invitation, you'll send your acceptance, and then be a gracious guest. Please learn to MYOB before the wedding or your brother may just cut you off. [/quote]
