The strange thing about this sinario is that I'm married and don't live with my mother and my brother is almost 40! (not married and living at home). My mother dotes on him, says its fine that he doesn't have a job (he's only worked around 2 years in his whole life).
I'm not surprised you feel annoyed, sounds like your mother has a favourite or 'golden child' that can do no wrong.
It is not a good dynamic for you or your brother, it has stunted his life.
At least you are not living at home. Make your own life, don't visit too often and keep conservations neutral with your mother to avoid conflict.
Your mother seems selfish.
Thanks for this!
