[quote=Anonymous]My parents were fairest parents.  They firmly met the needs of each kid. And since each of us had different interests and personalities, our needs were different too.  But mainly my parents were very good about meeting our basic needs - food, clothes, education, housing, EC costs, medicine, college, travel, wedding.

They did not keep a track of who got more while they were living and helping.  They helped with things that they valued  and only if they felt that the offspring could not afford it -  for example education of grandkids, mortgage of a child if they were in between jobs, medical costs etc.

They also got us all the exact same gifts.  If my siblings asked for different things, for example - one asked for a very well made bag, another asked for a kitchen gadget, and the third asked for a blood pressure monitor... my parents would get all the three gifts, for all the three kids.

They have left us equal share of their property to be given to us after they pass away.

When parents are not fail and favor one kid over others, they spoil the relationships between siblings. [/quote]
