Today, my parents were supposed to take me out to eat for my birthday, but since their favorite child wasn't with us, I instead got a mini order of tots from Sonic as my birthday meal/present. FML

Not so happy birthday? Happy Birthday OP, I hope that at least the tots were better than your day was!

Happy birthday, birthday twin! :) Don't feel too bad. My dad totally forgot it was mine and felt horrible when my mom had to call and remind him!

I am so sorry to hear they were so nasty. I hate when parents have favorites. Just ignore their messed up action and maybe go out with friends.

Ugh, that sounds shitty. Well happy birthday, OP. Here's to feebly hoping it was just a really cruel joke.

Yaay!! Sonic tots!! And, Happy 45th birthday, OP!

This reminds me of that kid who was happy he got an avocado for Christmas

Sometimes it's the simple things in life.

Well it sucks that they didn't do more on your birthday to celebrate. Are you all going to go out when your sibling is available instead? We do family celebrations in my family and events often get moved a few days to fit everyone's schedule better.

The absence of the sibling should not dictate the celebration of OP's birthday. The parents should have shown the same amount of compass to the OP as they did to the sibling.

Happy birthday man, I'm sorry that happened. You should tell your parents how you feel.

Hey, buddy. I know how you feel. This is completely unacceptable behaviour from your parents, and I think you deserve better. If you PM me, I will draw something for you so you at least have something that you can keep. Do note that I am having WiFi difficulties, so it may take a few days.

Thanks. I haven't received a request for the original poster yet and these putzes of technicians are not coming to fix our WiFi until the 19th.

Those kind of parents don't deserve to be parents. I mean unless you're struggling family.

doesn't count if they suddenly couldnt afford it simply because the favorite was unavailable

happy birthday! I'm really sorry that this happened to you, and I hope you have nothing but the best for all of your years to come!

If I were you, I would seriously consider leaving your house and move somewhere else. I can understand them thinking one child is smarter than another, but what they did there is just plain mean.

I'm sorry OP, and happy birthday! Hang in there, and look forward to being out on your own. Surround yourself with people who treat you well and don't look back.
