[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, DH was and is still the favorite. He's very successful, and his brother is a complete loser. No job or car kind of loser. Maybe $100 to his name. [/quote]

He's probably a "loser" ( :roll: ) because his parents turned him into a total headcase by comparing him constantly with his brother. He never got the opportunity to shine and develop his own personality. I'm sure he has zero self-esteem.[/quote]

Pretty sure everyone understood that to be the case without your eye rolling and explanation.

I am sure the PP appreciates your clarification of her post though.[/quote]

Actually the original poster seems to lack even a shred of compassion for the "complete loser" brother, so the explanation was very likely needed.[/quote]

The OP asked how the less favored child might grow up when parents do this. The PP gave an example that yes indeed this can effect a less favored child. There was nothing more needed. The PP didn't need you to chime in on a situation you have no further background on nor did PP need to be chastised by you.

Everyone ITT realizes that parents like this cause an issue. No clarification needed. Don't take it out on the PP.[/quote]
