Today, my parents favoritism towards my brother really shone through when we moved house and he got the nicest and by far biggest room. I wouldn't mind, but my brother is in college overseas and never comes home. FML

Stay there while he's gone? Maybe your parents can compromise

The parents probably use that room for secret hobbies... Like smoking their crack and juggling kittens. It's nothing personal, they're just reaping the benefits of the position of power.

This happened to my boyfriend recently, execpt his twin brother got the biggest room in the house and he got the smallest room so now I just call him Harry Potter.

As a parent, I wouldn't give in to the whiner. . .

Same situation with me. My sister was out of state In a home for troubled girls and they insisted they keep the biggest room in the house prepared for her. Yes bigger than my parents room as well. So she wouldn't feel we were "cutting her out if the family" She was required to stay till 18, 2 years away. While I had to share the smallest room in the house with my brother. There was enough room for a bunk bed and a dresser with ~2ft walk room between. My parents got my sister a California king bed new comforter, new curtains new paint to just sit empty. They also brought her a car while she was in there since "they promised her as a child" and they didn't want to lose her ties to our family by breaking that promise which did not extend to me or my brother. Then when they finally gave in and let the room be used, only after my sister got out early and opted to move in with a relative instead if come home, they gave it to my little brother. Oh and they used mine and my brothers college fund to pay for her rehab and new car

maybe they want him to have a nice room to come back to?

Maybe cause he is in college and you are still at home?

At least you won't have to feel obligated to look after your parents when they get old.
