In the United States anyone can sue anyone for any reason. The answer to your question is yes. Finding a lawyer to take your case is another story. Finding a judge who will not throw your case out of court is another story. Finding a judge who will not consider your lawsuit frivolous and order you to pay all sorts of money is another story. But, yes you can sue.
Answer
In order to sue you need a cause of action. Generally, there is no law that says parents must treat their adult children equally. In fact, throughout much of history children have been treated unequally by law. In Old England the eldest son inherited everything.
