[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]00:01 I don’t blame you at all.

Sir parents are free to do what they want, including favoring certain children over others and giving unequal inheritances.  But don’t pretend like actions don’t have consequences.  The slighted children are free to be hurt and pull back.[/quote]

So, let OP pull back. This thread is so stupid.

OP, let me ask you a question. If your parents gave you the house/money, and "not much" to your brother, would you be equally upset?

I didn't think so. Don't be greedy OP. [/quote]

DP. Why do you not get it? Everybody agrees that OP’s parents can do whatever they want with their own money.

The issue, which you refuse to see, is that there’s [b]emotional[/b] fallout from a decision that favors one child over the other.  And why the useless straw man about OP getting all the money? Even in this useless hypothetical, the relevant question is not now OP would feel, but how the shafted brother would feel.

Sounds like you’re planning to treat your kids unequally in your own will?[/quote]

Parents can do what ever they want but they should be honest about it with their kids and understand the long term impact.  When my parents pass, we are the only family left for my sibling.  She'll get all the money but be alone in the world as she doesn't have a spouse or kids.  I'd rather not be alone and have no or share the money.  Everyone has their priorities I guess.[/quote]
