I usually hear the father usually care for the daughter and mother usually like their son!! But I haven't felt anything like that in my life..What about you?

Yes I saw that in my family. We are amoung 4 sisters and We got a brother at home, he is the favorite of my mother and we are the sweetest of dad. Sometimes when we eat something my mother would say to keep for our brother and we are just furious at that. Because it makes us believe that she loves him more than us.

I don't think that there is such discrimination in there love towards there kids.
Even I have two younger sisters but we all are behaved in an equal manner and there is no differentiation among us.
For them we all are kids and we all have same respect for our parents so there is no differences among love of father and mother.

My father's favorite child is my twin sister. My mother's favorite is my brother. However, though neither my older sister nor I are our parent's favorite, we still always have felt very loved by both parents.

I think both parents care equally but I have noticed that girls tend to be 'Daddy's girls' and boys (when they are younger tend to be 'Momma's boys' but I don't think that has anything to do with how much each parent cares I think it has to do with mom's tend to be overprotective of their sons and dad's are the same way about their daughters.
Happy mylotting and good luck to you!

Both my parents are equal loving with both my brother and I. If I had to choose which one I admire most, that would be my dad. My dad is my biggest inspiration and my hero. He has done so much to help me, and he understands me more then anyone else in my family.

For me both cares equal,my father is simple ,he has four two dimples. He advise us to speak less, he hates a mess..................but our mother is totally opposite to father ,she is very talkative maybe because she is active. Yet i don't understand she talks a lot endlessly. Both our parents never differentiated among us. They both give equal love and care to us.

This hasn't happen to me. Both my dad and mum care for me in my young days. And they also did for my brother there was no preferance as who to care for who.

When things come to family and care for the children there come a question who cares more and whom. The answer is simple. Fathers would by nature be more caring of his daughter and mother her son. Now if you ask me why I must refer back to the theory of Sigmund Freud that this is the force of oppositeness that the father tends to be more caring of her daughter and mother her son. The opposite attracts each other. But there is nothing sexuality there but this is in the unconscious and sub conscious mind. It hardly or never comes to the conscious mind.
The father daughter attraction is termed as 'Electra complex' and mother son is known as 'Oedipus' complex. This is interesting. And there fore we say everything happens for some reason.
