Fairness

Someday when i was a kid my father gave some money, i forget the exact number. My father gave my brother a bigger money. I wonder why he always get a bigger money than me. It's unfair for me. I got mad. I complained to my father and asked for more money.
My father said "NO!" , and i said "I want more money!"
He still said "NO!" and stepped ahead.
I scolded "if you don't give me more money, i will rip this money !"

My father was angry.
i said "It's unfair if he get more money than me ! You should be fair, equal"

My father said "Fair is not equal. Fair is giving something proportionally"

I didn't understand what he meant.I was still angry.

That's the firs lesson about fairness that i got from my father
