My Parents Missed My Wedding Because of My Sister’s Dog — Should I Feel Hurt?

My name’s Thomas, and I’ve always felt like my parents favored my older sister, Emily. They constantly canceled plans with me,

missed important events like my graduation and football games, all because Emily needed their attention. It was frustrating but something I had

learned to live with. So, when I got engaged and started planning my wedding, I made it clear to my parents that I didn’t want history to repeat itself.

They promised me this time would be different. But on my wedding day, they didn’t show up. Their excuse? Emily’s dog was sick.My best man, Alex,

was shocked and angry. After the wedding, he posted a video on social media calling out my parents for always putting Emily first and neglecting me.

The video included clips from the wedding and even a voicemail from my parents explaining their absence. It quickly went viral.
