I’ve always been the “low-maintenance” child in my family. I finally stopped.

I grew up as the “low-maintenance” child in a family where my older brother required constant attention and support. Because I was independent and didn’t cause problems, my needs were often overlooked and I learned to suppress them to keep the family functioning. As an adult, I realized how emotionally exhausting this role had been and began setting boundaries for the first time. When I stopped being endlessly accommodating—especially when it came to helping my brother—my family reacted negatively and accused me of being selfish and “changed.” Now there’s tension and emotional distance, and I’m questioning whether I’m wrong for refusing to continue sacrificing my well-being to keep everyone else comfortable. #reddit #aita #redditstories #amitheasshole #redditaita #storytime #redditstory #familydrama #toxicfamily #goldenchild #emotionaldamage #true_story #viral #trending #fyp
