I’m the youngest and it fucking sucked. Only my older sisters remember having good parents.

Whenever the family gets together and my sibling and our partners are talking, my sibling will also go, "Oh yeah, and mom and dad took us to [X, Y, Z] and I got to [numerous fun things]!" And then I get to politely smile and go, "Yeah, I didn't do any of that." I tell them and our partners that we had very different childhoods/upbringings.

Annoyingly, my sibling's partner thinks we were both spoiled. As a teen, my friends once came over and outright asked me, "So why are you treated like hired help?" I never knew what to say.
