[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And you really don’t know how much the parents actually gave the sibling.

I went to an expensive private college. I had lots of merit scholarship and financial aid plus I worked jobs every semester and summer so my parents paid less than $5000 per year. My sibling, on the other hand, went to our state’s big flagship university. She received some need based financial aid, but not too much because the tuition was relatively low as she was in state. So, my parents paid about $15000 per year for her, roughly three times what they paid for me each year.

But, to this day, my sibling loves to tell everyone how I went to this expensive private school and cost my parents soooo much money. She seems to be implying sometimes that she should get more when they are gone. But her tuition cost them more then three time what mine cost. It’s very silly and I do correct her when I’m present when she says this, but I’ve heard that she tells relatives this story when she is at family events and I am not there.

[b]But someone who doesn’t know the truth might think my parents were very unfair when that isn’t at all the case. [/b]

Your parents were actually very unfair. They gave your sibling 3x more money than they gave you. This is unacceptable. You should complain and demand that they give you the same amount. Cut them off if they don't. They have created a mess in your family. [/quote]
