Sure, that's their right.

But, IMO, it's not really fair to the siblings, though. I suppose people have different definitions of fairness.

My parents, through the years, have given things to the adult (or semi-adult) children (they bought our cars until we were out of college, for example). But they always did so evenly.

I will be the same with my kids when they are adults - anything I give to one, the others will receive the same, or the same value. To me, that is only fair.
