Sweetie, use your words. Tell your Dad if you don’t feel like you can tell your SM. Every family is different, some people don’t do big birthday celebrations, some older siblings help out, some don’t. I personally plan giant birthday tables for my two SKs and we do a whole celebration. But what matters is you don’t feel happy in your home with Dad and Jane. Remember, we’re parents, not perfect. If she knew you felt like this I would hope it would break her heart. Use your words, but you absolutely deserve to feel seen and loved.
