DSister has had a gift from our mother. I asked for cash from family, I have a specific thing I am saving up for.
My mother made a big thing of showing me the price tag of Dsis's gift, by-accident-on-purpose. It's £250.
I had £50 in a card. Obviously fifty whole pounds is a good present, really not to have a strop over.
But fuck me, my sister is an accountant , married to a doctor. I'm 6 months into starting my business. The thing I'm saving for would earn my business hundreds if not thousands. £250 would be one 8th of what I need.
My parents are fairly well off, it really would not kill them to spend the same on both of us.
Am I being unreasonable to feel short changed, let down and quite sad?

To be in a tiny strop over difference in monetary value of gifts?
