All my siblings and I are legally adults, my mother has always preferred one sister since I could remember, my dad was more fair I suppose but lately he’s switched to the other side too.
No matter what I do, no matter how obedient and good I am or my other siblings are to my parents, they always prefer that one sister. If I fly them to the moon and back and then she just says hi to them, they’ll count her deed as more valuable.
I’m not even gonna tackle materialistic things which they keep handing her left and right, and sometimes I feel weird complaining about it as an adult but it hurts, and when I confronted one of my parents the other day and said that it’s okay, all parents prefer one kid, they replied and I quote “ well since you know it’s a universal thing amongst all parents, why is it bothering you?”
I don’t want to resent my parents or sister, but I also don’t know how to cope.
