[quote=Anonymous]I'm guessing your local sister does a lot of things for your parents, OP. One dynamic I find interesting is that the golden child often feels more entitled and important and thus free to live their own lives. They often actually wind up doing less elder care than the less favored siblings. I was not raised as the "important" one in the family. When my parents need elder care, I feel obligated to prioritize it often over my own needs. My golden child older sibling thinks her own life is so much more important because my parents always treated her like that and frequently say she "can't come to help" because XYZ. Meanwhile my mom's face still lights up when she calls or visits whereas around me it's like, whatever. [/quote]
