Cruel Parents Make Their Son's Birthday Party All About His 'Golden Child' Sister

Favoritism is an issue a lot of kids deal with. I can't imagine how horrible it feels to feel like your parents care about one of your siblings more than you. For many of us, we can see areas where our parents might treat our siblings differently than they treated us, but outright favoritism is more rare and so much worse than passing inequities. The phenomenon can border on neglect when parents put the needs of one golden child over the black sheep child. This treatment causes resentment between siblings, and seriously damages the self-esteem of the child on the neglected end of this dichotomy. Redditor u/Worried-Pizza6682 knows about this dynamic all too well, and the 15-year-old is often put on the backburner by his parents in order to accommodate the whims of his 7-year-old sister. He came to Reddit to share his devastating story of his sweet sixteen birthday party plans going haywire.
