Scenario

When adult siblings compete over understanding their parents

My brother and I are supposed to be planning our parents' 50th anniversary celebration but we can't agree on anything because he wants this big party and I know our parents would hate that, and underneath it I think we're fighting about who knows them better. Every conversation turns into this weird competition about who's the better child.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are using an act of love to settle old questions about who belongs more.
