My Dad Asked, “Is Your Allowance Sufficient?” I Replied, “What Allowance?”

Childhood memories

I reminisced about my childhood, always being the black sheep of the family. My siblings seemed to enjoy making me feel like an outsider.

Whether it was at family dinners or holiday gatherings, they never missed a chance to remind me of my place.

I remember constantly wishing for an ally, someone who would stand up for me, but even my parents remained distant.

Maybe the letter would explain why they were never on my side.
