[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents give my brother and his wife over 100 K a year and have probably given them 
2 million total. They pay for really expensive private schools
For his kids, all of the bill for college. Summer camps. Large house down payment. My sister and I get maybe 10k a year and our kids go to public school. For me the hardest part is watching my brother and his wife swam around like they are aristocrats when their entire lifestyle including a stay at home
Wife is subsidized by my parents. In our situation my parents now need help
With caregiving and I would like to just tell them that I will visit every twentieth time, because clearly he is the favorite and the one they want to see. Also maybe the lady without a job could help out.[/quote]

I feel disgusted on your behalf by the favoritism!

Have you never talked to your parents about this?

If I were you I would back off now, live your life and let your mooching brother and his lazy wife deal with it.[/quote]

This is different from the OP’s issue. I would feel the same as you PP.[/quote]
