I want to validate your feelings that your parents do not have favorites. I have three kids with no favorites. But I am also a child of a mother who remarried and even though I know she does not have a favorite I still sometimes "feel less than". Its no one's fault and I certainly wouldnt blame my mother or half brother. Your brother may have zero grounds to feel this way but it seems he does. What you have to try and do is let it go, at least after speaking your truth. Tell him you do not agree, tell him the subject should not be brought up again and that if it is you wont contact him, and ask him to help with mom. If he denies your truth, rehashes the subject or refuses to help you with your mom, is that someone you want to be in a relationship with?
