Less than a day later, everything spiraled out of control. I started reading Facebook posts. My parents were never particularly tech-savvy, but somehow they knew how to create a buzz on social media, especially when things were going well for them…
At first, I thought it was just another ruse, because that was their strategy: to publicly publicize the family business. But when I checked my news feeds, I realized. It wasn't just that I wasn't receiving more financial support.
The posts were disguised as expressions of familial love. In reality, they were thinly veiled attacks on me. My mother wrote, "I didn't raise my son that selfishly."
