My parents have a daughter and a son,my younger brother and me. I think my parents love both of us. But sometimes I feel that they love my brother more than me,which make me very disappointed. In my conutry, some people still think only son is the successor of the family,they pay more attention and love to the son.But to the daughter, they think her will to be a member of another family in one day. When we were little children,my parents told me,my brother is younger than me, they should pay more attention to my brother. I thought so. But when we are both adult ,they still do it as before.

Maybe I think my parents love my brother more than me
My parents have a daughter and a son a son and a daughter, my younger brother and me. I think my parents love us both of us*. But sometimes I feel think/suspect that they love my brother more than me, which makes me very disappointed. In my country, some people still think that only a son is can be the successor of the family, so they pay more attention and show more love to the son sons. But to the daughter, But they think (assume)** that someday their daughters will to be a member of another family in one day. When we were little children, my parents told me that because my brother is younger than me, they should need to pay more attention to my brother. I thought so too. But when we are both adult grew up,they still give him all the attention*** just like do it as before. I think it that is unfair. How about of your family? If you are were me,what how do would you feel?*both linguistically correct, but "love us both" is more native-sounding.
**also correct, but "assume" is more appropriate. "Assume" specifically means to believe something that the speaker believes is not true. Here, you could say the parents "assume" their daughters will leave the family, because in reality that may not happen and you think they are wrong.
***Unlike in Mandarin, English requires you to restate the topic of discussion in the next sentence. In your sentence, you have to say what the parents did.

I think my parents love my brother more than me
My parents have a son and a daughter, my younger brother and me. I think my parents love both of us. But sometimes I suspect that they love my brother more than me, which makes me feel very disappointed. In my country, some people still think only a son is the successor of the family. They pay more attention and express deep love to their son. But what about their daughter? They think that someday she will become a member of another family. When we were little children, my parents told me that because my brother is younger than me, they must pay more attention to him. I thought the same. Now we are both adults, but they still pay him more attention like before. I think that it is unfair. How about your family? If you were me, what would you feel?
