Losing a child is a very hard thing to go through for every parent. But even in such cases, they shouldn’t neglect their other children, no matter how difficult their pain is. After all, these children are still here and they need acknowledgment from their parents.

Just like today’s OP, whose parents make her honor her dead twin for her birthday every year, even though all she wishes for is to celebrate it normally.

I am a writer at Bored Panda. I have loved creating and writing down stories about people and things since I was little and I think this passion led me to get degrees in sociology, communication, and journalism. These degrees opened various paths for me, and I got a chance to be a volunteer in the human rights field, and also try myself out in social research and journalism areas. Besides writing, my passions include pop culture: music, movies, TV shows; literature, and board games. In fact, I have been dubbed a board games devotee by some people in my life.

Deep within, I hold a dream close - to embark on a global journey in an RV, accompanied by my faithful canine companion. Together, we'll wander through diverse cultures, weaving precious memories under the starry night sky, fulfilling the wanderlust that stirs my soul.

Wow, this is really messed up. Go Grandpa for being there. You mourn your loss, and celebrate what you have, but not at the same time ffs. Let the poor girl enjoy her birthday.

This is so sad. OP's parents should've had grief counseling way before this. OP, you are not being selfish + I wish you many happy birthdays to come.
