100% you are better for it. My family is like this with me. Excuses after excuses. This Christmas I wasn't supposed to attend the party, I didn't know I wasn't as I have always done so... they canceled it when they found out as they wanted a"small" party that included my other sisters family. Found out they still had it but at a different house, they have left me out of smaller holiday's like Easter. I did nothing wrong at all, I barely have even talked with anyone as I have a very serious and painful new autoimmune disorder. They gaslit me like mad, " we love you and your family equally, didn't we give you a gift for your birthday ". They where never apart or my kids lives growing up but they where my 2 sisters kids... this isn't the first time left out, but it is the last. I am NC 100%, even though I was low for years and they didn't notice.

I'm so sorry about what happened to you.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU WITH LOVE FROM THE REDDITORS WHO JUST READ THIS POST

Extra(s): angry grudge for your parent's (and probably your sister's) entitlement

you didn't do anything wrong here, your parents have bias issues. and this might be more fitting for me to say this.

You might need to talk about this issue in r/relationships

or even better yet, r/raisedbynarcissists because I think everyone seems to hate you/very much against you but let's hope whatever happens in the future will work out for you so happy birthday to you u/Birthdaycake32 happy wishes to you.

love. various redditors who just read this post.

In case any minors are reading this thread, this is not true (at least in the US). Children absolutely have property rights, do not let your parents steal anything from you such as inheritance, wages, gifts, and personal items. Parents can generally take custody of an item (like taking away a phone because their kid is grounded) but they can't sell it, and they are legally responsible for taking good care of items in their custody.

I am so so sorry to hear this, your family are emotionally abusing you, you are not wrong to feel devastated..My wish for you is that as soon as you can you can leave these people and carve out of a wonderful life for yourself, get therapy to heal this abuse and be happy. You are not wrong or bad, they are.Do you have other family you can talk to about their behaviour? You deserve support and love

Oh hun, happy birthday. Please imagine that everyone on this sub is singing it to you and celebrating you. This is not a TYFU OP, you did nothing wrong. Your parents suck, not you. We’d all send you a cake and presents if we knew where to send them. Since we don’t (and you should not give out your address to random internet strangers anyway), please vividly imagine walking into the party that thousands of redditors would attend if we could.
