I love stories where the “not good enough to invite” sibling takes off for the beach or mountains. 😈😈

Dad's response to his non-invite query is telling. He pretty much acknowledged their favoritism. And they didn't want him there, cause it forces them to confront it.

Bravo to Mason for defending OP and calling out their parents abhorrent behavior. I will NEVER understand why parents play favoritism. They worship one while exploiting and ab*sing the other.
