Though people believe that one should love one's children evenly but the reality always forces us to be atuned to one than the other. And often than not, this dillema usually plays out between the firstborn and the lastborn.
With some people claiming to love their firstborns most for being their 'first product', others claim to love their lastborns most due to the fact that they normally do have them around while others have left for their new families.
Now with this social issue, which of these do you think should naturally possess the parental love? Objective response please.

Ask your parents

Lastborn, becos dey enjoy both parental love and d love of all d siblings combined

The first born is always the family's bulldozer. If the first born is a boy, he's automatically regarded as the father of the family. The weight is expected to rest on his shoulders. While the last born enjoys all the pampering from both parents and the siblings. Most especially if it's a girl. Every member of the family will be her bodyguard.

How u go dey ask this kain question? Even God tends to have a softer spot for last borns e.g. Jacob, David, Manasseh etc. First borns usually bear the brunt of parent's discipline and harsh realities. Last born enjoy more parental love abeg.

I can relate to your first statement about first born boys

Especially when the dad dies a bit too Early.

Even if the dad is alive but too old or very poor to shoulder the responsibility of the family. Such situations will occur.

Being the bulldozer is one of the reasons i think the firstborns should deserve it.

It all depends on how he conducts himself, responsibly or otherwise.

Last born ofcourse

First born enjoyment usually ends with the arrival of a second born but last borns are always pampered, only they are sometimes the errandboy/girl for their siblings

Being a last born is pride.

I think you might be right esspecially when you look at the case of the prodigal son and his brother too.
