My (15M) sister (17F) is always trying to look good in front of my parents. She mentions every single thing that she does at school and shows them her grades and even makes them breakfast sometimes just to make herself look better than me.
Thankfully my parents don’t really treat her better because of it and make sure to treat us equally. She’s definitely upset by this because she’s always claiming she’s mistreated. One time she noticed I was unto her so she told me she feels like she has inferiority complex or something. I told her sure and ignored it because again it was a dumb excuse.
Anyway, we didn’t have food all day and no one bought groceries so we couldn’t make anything at home. My sister told my mom get her some cheese so she can make herself mac n cheese and in case we got something to get that instead.
While we were out it was too late for mom to cook something when we would get back home so I told her we should just buy food and get groceries for another day cause I was craving a burger and some fries. She agreed with me and I told her we shouldn’t get any for my sister cause she wanted to make something else anyway.
My mom told me that maybe my sister would be hurt if we don’t get her anything because she usually does that but I told her she should have asked if that was the case and we had already ordered by then anyway so it was not worth the effort. When we got back home it was around 8pm and my sister saw me holding a box of fries so she was saying how she’s relieved we got food cause she’s hungry and too tired. But when she saw we didn’t have any for her she started crying and went to her room.
Mom feels really guilty and she said she will make her favorite food as an apology. My sister also told my mom she felt like I tried to act like I was better than her by doing this so she was mainly upset at me. AITA?
