[quote=Anonymous]Our opinion does not matter, your brother's does. I think if both children are generally making enough money (i.e., are not from drastically different socioeconomic strata) it seems logical that they would split the costs once Mom has run out of her own money. I don't think you should reach back to resentment of whether more was spent on your brother growing up. He may not have even had any control over that. Perhaps your mother did it because she got more child support from his dad OR she favored him. Neither of those are his fault. You should be happy you have enough now and try to be fair and objective with your brother (the baggage you are lugging around is not healthy for you). If you think the conversation will get heated, seek the services of a professional mediator to discuss it.[/quote]
