Line 292:
** Aang didn't technically have parents (given that Airbending Air Nomad children were sent off to live with the monks) but it was fairly obvious that he was Monk Gyatso's favorite.
** The rough counterpart to the Fire Nation royals, Hakoda's family, doesn't seem to have this problem. Hakoda doesn't show any favouritism for his son or daughter. And while Ozai and favoured child Azula came to share certain traits, Hakoda and Sokka are similar without this affecting Katara negatively.
* In ''[[Hey Arnold!]]'', favoritism seems strong in the Pataki family; [[The Ace|Olga]] is praised for her accomplishments and is given more attention than Helga, which causes a one-sided strain between the two. [[Deconstructed Trope|However]], Olga actually wishes she could be like Helga, without all the fussing and attention.
* Any time Pickles' parents get any screen time in ''[[Metalocalypse]]'', it's made abundantly clear that Seth, Pickles' older brother, is the favorite child. To put it into perspective: Seth is an ex-con who lives with his wife (of questionable virtue) in an attic above their garage in Wisconsin. Pickles is ''the drummer for the most successful band in the world.''
** To further emphasize: ''[[Fiction 500|whose annual income is so huge that it makes them the seventh largest economy on the planet]].''
