My (25F) younger sister (19F) is the golden child and she’s going through a rough time. My Dad (48M) (by Sparky)
My (25F) younger sister (19F) is the golden child and she’s going through a rough time. My Dad (48M) is ****** because I refuse to give her anymore help.
My younger sister is(was?) the golden child. I CONSTANTLY got compared to her.
She always had amazing grades, while mine were average. She’s the logical thinking one, while I was the artist and my dad could never understand what the big deal behind me taking a picture was. Even when I sold an entire photo series I took for $500 a pop, still wasn’t impressive.
I was the emotional basket case, that was going to end up knocked up out of high school and become a total mess, while she was emotionally strong was going to be successful, she was always great at saving money, while I went shopping for things I wanted...you get the gist.
When I was diagnosed with depression, my Dad never failed to remind me that I was a huge emotional and financial burden taking away attention from his other children because of my “temper tantrums†(suicide attempts, break downs)
Nothing I did was ever good enough compared to what my sister did. My dad was SUPER ****ty to me growing up. On my 13th birthday I got banned from my cake ceremony for leaving a book in the middle of the floor. My family ate my birthday cake without me. I got grounded for an entire summer for bringing home C’s. I didn’t get a graduation party. The list goes on.
I will say that she was compared to me by all our teachers when she went through school after me. But my Dad quickly shut that down.
After graduation from HS, I cut off all ties with my Dad. Didn’t talk to him until last year and it’d been 5 years. The only reason why was because my younger sister had a kid. Her BD is a TOTAL ****BAG!
I’ve helped her out a few times in the past, but I’ve since stopped because she always takes advantage of me helping her out and I’m tired of being walked all over.
Well now my Dad is ****** at me for not being more willing to help her out. I really want to tell him to screw off, because I’m not a bank or a charity that can just give me my resources whenever she needs them. At the same time, she’s my younger sister and I feel guilty for not wanting to help. Like I said, I can’t finance her life and mine, and I don’t really want to.
Part of me wants to cut ties with my sister as well and just keep it pushing. She’s my sister and I don’t want to sever my relationship with her, because my dad is a ******. But I’m tired of her playing the victim and running to him every time I can’t give her gas money or pay for her to take an Uber to work. Or I don’t want to give her money for diapers and formula. I didn’t have this kid, so it’s not my responsibility to provide for her.
*TL:DR My sister is the golden child who keeps taking advantage of me helping her out. Now my Dad is ****** because I refused to continue to help her.
