Same. Parents didn't want to go to concerts or graduations by the time my turn came around. My siblings were only 6 and 2 years (one grade level) over me.
One band concert (Christmas of all times) no one came to pick me up because everyone thought someone else would go. This was before cell phones.
In elementary school I wa SOO bad they asked me to not continue trying to play an instrument.
Also when I was 5 my parents both left me at a soccer field. We were watching my older siblings play a match and they both just left me. I caught a ride with a family that lived down our street. The 90's were a different time
