My younger brother (Jake), 24, became foreman of our farmthe beginning of the year. So he got the foremans house.My father paid for NEW tiles,the cement,the paint for the inside AND outside of the house. People to build a cubbard, workers to paint the house and tile it.He got a proffessional to do the bathroom. My father bought him a new toilet and shower.
Now, my other brother (oldest - 27) is getting married in december. He is moving into another house on our other farm. He is doing the bathroom over and painting the inside of the house. The house doesn't have any cubbards for your clothes. They are struggling with their money problems and cannot afford much. My father is helping them out, but not nearly with as much money as he did my YOUNGER brother.My father didn't blink an eye to buy anything for Jake, but with my older brother it's a MOERSE problem. My mother thinks he is rebelious because he complains!!!
What can I do? My parents dont think they are unfair. What should i do?

Unfortunately, some parents just don't feel the same about all their kids, it's wrong, but you can't do anything about it. You need to let it go, but remember this when you have kids, and remember to keep your actions and feelings the same for all the kids, no matter who's your favorite.

This is a problem best left for your parents to handle.......besides, i think that both of them are lucky that your father did anything at all to help them out. What i mean is that they are both grown men and why cant they do their own remodeling?

they only thing you can do is talk to the both of them. Make them see and understand that your older brother needs the help. Talk to your younger brother as well and make him see the situation. Maybe your younger bro and you can make him change his ways.

SOunds life favouritism. speak to your family explain how you feel, if that gets you no where speak to Jake see if you can get thru to him he may be able to speak to your parents if he isnt selfish that is.. Maybe there is more to it than you know.. have a family meeting bring it up see how your eldest brother is feeling about it...

Stay out of this fight. If there's something you want, pay for it yourself. If your parents offer, tell them no thanks, you've seen the damage it can do. Look at your brothers, need more proof be provided?
