Why family caregiving often falls to one person

My brother does nothing to help with our father but shows up at family events acting like the good son and everyone praises him while I do all the work.

What we've seen

Unequal distribution of care work combined with social recognition going to the uninvolved creates a deep sense of injustice and invisibility.
