This is part of why I suggested working with a therapist on reparenting. I feel bad for the OP that his parents allowed such a rivalry to form. I think it's a parents' duty to encourage good relationships between their children and not allow these rivalries to get out of control. Of course there will be some amount of rivalry, but it shouldn't be to the point of one child wanting to kill another.
