My parents spent $180,000 on my brother’s medical school but told me, ‘A daughter doesn’t need a degree. Just find a husband.’ I worked three jobs, graduated with honors. Years later, at my brother’s engagement party, my father introduced him as ‘our successful son’ unbeknownst to him, his fiancée knew exactly who I was.

My son said at lunch, “We only invited you to be polite—don’t think everything revolves around you.” His fiancée smirked. I took one sip of tea, smiled, then stood up and left.
