I wonder. I wouldn't know, because I have only one child.

There's a massive typo I didn't realize before. Should read as:
Why do parents *love* their younger / youngest child more?

I'm guessing because the younger ones are little and cute like puppies. They continue to get more attention than others even when they have grown up, because they did not have younger siblings to lose the parents' attention to.

I think you love all your children the same. I don't always like my kids, when they are rebellious, bad-tempered, etc. but I always love them.
