My Parents Billed Me For Living

Summary

Because my parents always claimed they treated my sister and me completely equally, they expected us to split the burden of supporting them down the middle.

But while my sister, Coral, makes eight thousand dollars a month, she has never contributed a single dime to our family. She donates every spare cent she has to impoverished kids through a charity in rural Appalachia.

So, the mortgage on our house and the car payments? I pay them. Our parents' prescription copays and my younger brother's school expenses? I cover them. Even Coral's new clothes every month are charged to my credit card.
