Neglected Child’s Revenge or Family Obligation?

Our protagonist grew up feeling unloved and neglected, with their parents constantly favoring their golden child brother. They learned early on to fend for themselves, eventually becoming financially stable through hard work and determination. Years later, their parents are unable to retire due to the golden child stealing from their accounts. They refuse to take legal action and turn to our protagonist for help. Despite being able to afford it, they refuse to give them money or let them stay in their backyard studio. Their sisters think they’re being unreasonable, but our protagonist stands firm, pointing out that they never acted like parents. They even offered to help pay for a lawyer to sue their brother, but their parents refused. Let’s see what the internet has to say about this family drama…
