I really don't know. I guess she does a good job of hiding who she prefers most

ichommy:

you know there are diffrent type of mum some will like first born while some will like last born but in most cases it last born

the middle child is screwed

This favoritism tendency has been in existence since beginning imagin abraham favors isaac to ismael,isaac favors esau 2 jacob and it's d oda way round 4 rebeka,even jacob favors joseph to d others so the tendency has become innate

Gabry:

My mom is biased towards my brother because he is the only boy and also bcause when she was pregnant with him, she faces the most complications with him but for me, I dont really care about whom my parents are in favour with because as far as Im concrn, Im living in my own world. I dont really care.

you are damn rite!!

it really make sense

I think is the first child,cos my mum always approve my request even though my siblings grumble.

I think is the first child.As for me my mum normally approve all my request even though my siblings grumble.

me thinks it depends.

ME! ! !. . .No contest or rival.
i was the only girl,so naturally we do stuffs,play,shop and gist together.

my brother which is the last born

I think its really me, my parents pander more to the last born but deep down me on their side is what they count on the most.

I love my parents!

I think that MOTHERS like the OBEYING ones
In my family my mother love the obeying child bcus he responds to obeying stimules,
Bt mothers should like all her children bcuz they are all her children.

Favortism is WRONG.

That why many Nigerian family have JEALOUSY and LACK of COOPERATION with their children.

Typical Nigerian way of wasting children.

It depends, but dont be surprise if she chooses either her first child or last child.

last child

any1 that is doing well have more love by her mom, but the last child i guess is loved by mom best

As for me,i am the last and i am not my Mothers Favorite.My Elder Sister who is the third born and second daughter is her favorite.I don't know if it is because of the fact that they look so much alike.

my brother used to be my mom's favorite until he got married

now that enviable position lies with me. lol, i can do no wrong. lol

it turns out marrying a woman your mother doesn't like can erase years of accumulated affection.

Haba! Favourites? ?  ?  A mother should love her children equally ohhhh,  . . but,

I know for a FACT it's me. I am the only biological girl of her 7 children. I'm the 2nd youngest tooo . . . no contest.  

[s]She also knows I will not put her in a home. [/s]

roflmao. 

It's me and everybody knows it

lawyer:

I have never really understood that biased nature of mothers to dote on the last born more than the other children. Isnt that selfish? How do the other kids feel? i.e child 4 in a family of 8 or child 3 in a family of 4?

At first I felt jelous and than I realize that jelousy is the most evil thing on earth so I channel my jeklousy towards other things like engaging in many activitis and making myself busy and making lots of friends. Now I dont really feel it anymore cause Im in my own world

wetin consain you with my family?

According to me i think and believe it is the daughter because as a good mother ahe will not want her child to be wayward and due to this let the daughter get closer to her. thanks.

i nor know oh!

In my family, i think its quite different. We're 6 (six) in number, 2 females and 4 males.

But my mum tend to love the first, who happens to be female more than others.
I'm the 3rd but the 1st male child, and its clear to all that i'm our dads favourite, lucky for me, in my family my dads word is final, so i hold the aces.

Cheers.

In my family, my parent's favorite child is the 1st son who happens to be the second child.

Funny enough don't suppose my mom has a favorite child.

I think me folks they good @ not showing it so can't tell if they have any favs

too_soon:

In my family, my parent's favorite child is the 1st son who happens to be the second child.

This might as well be me. And too_soon might be a whinning younger brother. What does it really matter who mum likes more. You've been given life, go live it to the fullest.

Well may be for those who have loads of cash and property to harvest when the inevitable happens it might be an issue who parents like more. But a wicked son can always use a court order to prove that mum liked him more

my mum's favourite aint the first or last but the 4th. the last ones like me are jst mere distractions.
i envy all those favourites out there
