Filial daughter gives mum monthly allowance and takes her on holidays, yet mother loves older brother more; hands him greater inheritance

A filial daughter who felt that no matter what she did, her mother would still always love her brother more, took to social media to vent her frustration.

In an anonymous post on Monday (Jul 18), the daughter wrote that her 50-year-old elder brother who was not well-to-do did not give his mother an allowance. The woman wrote that both she and her brother were married, yet she had two teenage children, but he did not have any kids.

She added that she would give her mother a monthly allowance, often take her out for meals with her children, and even bring her on holidays twice a year (during pre-Covid times) even though she didn’t earn a lot.

The woman wrote that she felt the disparity the most during her uncle’s birthday party.

“during the picture taking with my uncle, exclaimed that she wants to have a picture taken with her son. She always refer to my brother as her son, doesn’t use his name ard family members. She did not invite me to come into the picture”, the woman wrote.

She added that while she and her mother did have a good relationship, she felt that subconsciously her mother loved her brother more. In addition, she noted that when her father died, the latter’s assets were not equally distributed between the two siblings.

“Obviously he (her brother) got more than me. Why are both my parents like that? What have I done wrong?” the woman wrote.

She was so affected that she even thought of temporarily not giving her mother an allowance so that she would be appreciated a little more.
