A young woman has 3 older siblings, but they are hardly her built-in best friends. She and her siblings are so far apart in age that she grew up completely and utterly lonesome.

Needless to say, now that she’s an adult, she’s still not close to all of her older siblings in the least.

“I had to play by myself, was never allowed to state my opinion in conversations because I am “the spoiled brat who doesn’t know anything about life”, which is not true at all,” she explained about her childhood.

“I always had hand-me-downs, was controlled 24/7 and had no right of speaking my mind. My eldest sister has always tried to control my life.”

“I wanted to study fashion but she refused so my parents forbade me to study fashion because of that.”

Then, she started college, and if you thought she would be able to get away from her crazy older sister, you were sadly mistaken.

Her college has an online portal where parents can log in to see the grades that their kids are getting, as well as view report cards and contact teachers.

Her sister took control over this and left her parents out in the dark, as her sister claimed that her mom and dad couldn’t figure out how to use the portal.

Over the last 6 years, her sister read every single personal detail in that portal and sent her nasty messages if she didn’t do so hot on a test.

She really wasn’t too bothered by that, but then her sister turned around and told her mom things that were hardly true about her performance in college.

“This led to my parents and siblings being more strict with me,” she said. “I worked so hard every day and naturally became overwhelmed and later on depressed.”

“A day after one of my friends died my sister was visiting and saw that I was feeling down.”

“She then said to me “you know, you have no right to be worrying about anything, you are too young for that, I, on the other hand, have two children, I should be the one feeling exhausted” This broke me and I cried secretly in the bathroom.”

She’s graduating soon though, and she made it through this nightmare. For her graduation ceremony, she can invite 2 guests to attend.

Her parents will be taking a vacation and can’t come, so her mom insisted that her sister should go in their place.

“I refused,” she continued. “I told them that it is either them attending the ceremony or I am going alone.”

Her sister made her life awful throughout her college experience, and that’s not what she wants to be thinking about when she accepts her diploma and celebrates her hard work.

Her mom and her other siblings are really upset with her for excluding her sister from her graduation ceremony.

Do you think she has every right to exclude her sister, or should she let her come after all?
