[quote=Anonymous]OP, I come from a family of 3. As the only girl, I was never coddled. I ended up paying for more stuff on my own b/c I was able to get higher paying jobs in high school and during grad school (e.g., went to better law school than older brother, and got paid big law salary). At times it was very hard for me to deal with but it's better to be in the position to fend for yourself. My youngest brother was seriously crippled by my parents always bailing him out. Now he's almost 40, has no job and incapable of supporting himself. It may be painful for you and your husband that his parents treated DH and his sister so differently, but I'd rather be your DH than his younger sister. [/quote]
