[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH is the favorite of his parents and his sister is mostly OK with it except that their Mom set up their trusts so that DH is the trustee of his own and SIL has the bank as her trustee. I stayed FAR away from that issue. On the other hand, SIL's firstborn is the favorite grandchild. Her son is all my MIL talks about. Not interested in ours in the least. [/quote] This is common. MIL favors her daughter's children over her son's. [/quote] From old fashioned families, the daughter is seen as the one to favor as parents age. She is more likely to be the care giver as the parents age. Sons are favored when they are younger, to become financially successful. Sometimes that means the son will have to move way for work and he will not be the day to day tasks care giver like the daughter. [/quote]
