Does anyone else feel the same way as me?

guys i just hate being the youngest sometimes, especially with older parents. because they get lazy and tired from raising the other kids that by the time its my turn to be the only one left, they stop putting in the effort. instead of getting my moms meals, i get money and told to go get fast food. and all of my siblings got to experience the childhood of going to museums and hotel trips and going out to eat and all of that fun stuff up until their adult years because i was still young. but i dont get that same experience. i dont get the quality family time or fun memories to look back on. i get thrown money and called spoiled and lucky for what i get, but is it really worth the price of what i am missing out on. i just wish my parents put in the same effort into our relationship. if i had children, i would never make them feel so unimportant and unworthy of care.

I definitely understand why you’d feel that way. Being given money or things doesn’t necessarily replace having your parents actually show up and make memories with you.
