My mom and I used to get along best, until my brother was born, and since then he's always been my mom's favorite. My older sister used to be my dad's favorite, but I've come to feel that I'm his favorite now. My mom says I have my dad in the palm of my hand. I do

No, I don't think so.
They love me and everything, but I am just SO not like my sister and brother.
I got in a lot of sh*t when I was younger and was the "bad" one (mainly just cuz I was the oldest). And even now, I am more of the black sheep.
But that's ok, because I am happy with myself

I dont get spoiled or anything but im the only one who hasnt borrowed money from my parents (and im the youngest!) lol so they may favor me for that

I'm my dad's favorite and my brother is my mom's.

ME TOO! i am my dad's and my brother is my mom's! i think that's pretty standard.

My older brother is the 'golden child'... apparently i'm the one who knows all the dirt on him. Plus i kinda like being the black sheep of the family...it's gives me the perfect excuse to spice up boring family holidays!

i have always thought i was, but i think my siblings would say the same thing for themselves. guess our parents did a good job at showing us love:)

Nope, im the middle one, so imagen

My sister is my dad's fav. My brother is my mom's fav. I'm sorta left out.

Thanks for putting in the "only child" choice. =)

My parents like my sister better--she's sweet, nice, and still goes to church.

I am the "golden child" in my family. I wasn't trying to be the good one, but my siblings make it easy.

My bro is the FAVORITE They basically spoiled him rotten since he's a small kid, always got him whatever he wanted.

Yea.. not going to lie it's great

Only child!
And YES, I'm Spoiled..lol

I'm my mom's favorite, and my sister's is my dad's.

I'm one of three, and the youngest.

I wouldn't say that I'm favored. I live at home right now, and I take advantage of my parents' knowledge, and they have always commented on the fact that my siblings never bothered to really talk to them at this age. Or really ever.

@ linb.

I don't think my parents have a favorite child, I think they appreciate each and every one of us for different reasons. I used to be daddy's little girl, my mom told me that she never thought my dad would love another child as much as he loved me when I was the only one but of course, that wasn't true, he loves us all the same. I'm much closer to my mom these days than my 18 year-old sister, we have a great relationship and I like spending time with her. Still, I don't think I'm her favorite.

I'm Daddy's favorite, but my mother definitely favors my little sister

I picked Other because I am in way being the only girl with 3 brothers. But my parents have always been very good about not showing favoritism

I'm an only child, so of course I'm their favorite!lol.

I am. I didn't mean to be. It's causing problems with my other siblings.

I've never felt I was the favorite, but both my sisters claim I am. I'm the eldest and the only one to follow my dad's profession, so we've always had that much more in common. And I guess since I'm the only one not living with them, I tend to be more patient with them then my sisters are. Since I'm not with them all the time, I always make sure I make time to talk and spend time with each of them. I guess that's what makes my sisters feel I'm a favorite, because until they started claiming that, I always felt my little sister (who was really sick as a child) was the favorite/protected one.

I am the 'golden child', but my parents love all of us equally. I was just the easiest child
My oldest brother rebelled a lot and got into a lot of fights with my dad, the second boy (still older) was good but he still partied and drank and snuck out, my younger sister (the youngest) is going through a very rebellious stage right now.
I never went through that rebellious stage, I never partied, I never drank, or gave my parents problems. I also did very good in high school (graduated valedictorian).

I always joke with my mom that I am her favorite We are VERY close too.

am definately my DADDY'S favorite without a doubt. lol

My parents give my siblings more attention because they are younger and still need it, but I was always more well behaved than they were. It is a strange dichotomy because I don't necessarily feel as if I am their FAVORITE, but I know they appreciate the fact that I make their lives just a little bit easier because they do not have to always worry about the third child.

My oldest brother is my mothers favorite, I think she felt she had to give him more attention because he's not my dad's real father. My sister is my dad's favorite because she was his first and she's the responsible one. My other brother was sickly and had to be closely cared for by my mother and he was my dad's first son. Then there's me. Nothing special about me, I was a screw up, I smoked pot and became a teenage mommy, so, add it all up and I'm FAR away from being the favorite.

My brother is definitely the favorite. He's always been the one that's super smart, had amazing grades, went to the right school, got the best job, the best trophy wife, blah, blah, blah, blah. My parents often tell me they wish that I was more like him, which is kind of sad.

I'm not the favorite but I am at peace with that. My parents still love me.

I'm an only child, but I don't think I'd be the favorite if there were others, so I guess I lucked out!

i was an only child too. i have 3 girls and cannot imagine favoring one over the other. my job is to provide what they need, and that's not going to be equal because their needs aren't the same at different times.

my dh has 2 brothers and the middle one is obviously not favored by anyone in the family. one year the mom forgot his birthday! we were over at their house about a week after and someone said "hey this can be like bill's birthday dinner" and the mom was like "was it? oh yeah, i forgot. pass the peas and carrots". niiiice.

Mom loves us all equally but differently (for real).

I feel the same about my children -- I can sincerely say that my love for each of them is boundless and equal, yet I really do love them differently.

My husband's mother dotes on him. She loves her daughter just as much, but *he* is her favorite beyond a doubt.

I think my parents love us equally but don't treat us equally. I'm the more responsible one and my brother is the babied one. Being babied is definitely not a good thing for adult life. Sadly, my brother isn't as self-reliant and sufficient as I am. For that reason, my parents consider me the smarter sibling and treat me as such. I'm not smothered by questions and advice like my brother is.

I would say it varies between me and my sister.We each have had our moments of impressing our parents with acheivement and disgracing them with our mess ups. But all in all they love us equally and support us unconditionally.

Well! Unfortunately, I’m not the lucky one. I'm the oldest and I always get the blame -sigh-

It's only because my sister is so darn evil! lol I'm always smiling and laughing and she is always so quick to catch an attitude....how can you not love me!?

I kind of get the best of both worlds:

I'm my dad's only child, so I am his favorite by default.

I have a brother from my mom and stepdad, and I think he is the favorite with them. But, he's younger, and so darn cute still, I don't blame 'em!

I am my father's favourite, no doubt. He bought me a car and we converse regularly.

I'm the youngest by about 10 years - I have 3 older brothers, and was the last attempt to have a girl - they succeeded in the end!
I'd say they love us equally but tend to favor me.

I am Daddy's girl all the way. Whenever I want something I ask him. He bought me a car and I can always talk to him about almost anything.

I am my dad's favorite and my sister is my mom's.

I am not the fav by a mile and there is no reason for it. I was an angel.

I was the least favorite when I was younger because I caused the most problems and was more rebellious, but now I think my moms tends to lean more towards me being the favorite since I have the only grandkids. Maybe when my brother and his wife start having kids that will change.

I'm the only child... and the only grandchild on my mom's side... And I'm INCREDIBLY SPOILED.

And my son is my only child, of course his grandparent's only grandchild and the only greatgrandchild on my mom's side and he's is spoiled stinkin' rotten!

Well I put "not the lucky one" even though I am an only child. Which is what happens when you are an accident.

my mom always told me i was the "easy one" - i took that to mean favorite.

In high school my sister got into a LOT of trouble so while I wouldn't say I was the favorite at that point, I certainly was easier and I think my parents appreciated that.

Since then, my sister has calmed way down, and she lives much closer to my parents than I do (by about 2,500 miles) so I kind of feel like she's their "favorite" now just by default. Oh, and she has a baby now too, which moves her into the favorite category in terms of attention bestowed

Plus, I feel like she put my parents through such total hell growing up, that they love her just that much more for being normal now. It's like hazing in a fraternity or something. You appreciate it more because of what you went through to get there

i am an only but my husband is the youngest of three boys. My mother-in-law definetly has favorites. Her first born is her favorite ( he is still attached to her apron strings even thought he is 45 years old) he can't make any decisions without her. She tries very hard with the grandkids but she definetly favors his children. My father -in law favors my children and is very obvious about it so i think she sort of counter acts his behaviour. Its really sad when your are 45 years old and you have to have your mom and dad pay your bills because you and your wife blew all your money on stupid crap instead of being responsible. (i shouldn't care but i do)

my mom straight up told me i was her favorite over my brother. muahaha!
