Episode 46 - Family Trauma: What is the Golden Child Syndrome?

from You Minding Your Own Business · host Goddess Asha Mariama

In this episode, I was discussing the golden child syndrome when it comes to your siblings and how they were treated better than you were. How that child was the golden child that could not do no wrong. The golden child that basically essentially mom and dad always invested in and always did for. The one that no matter what they always put on a pedestal compared to you. The one that they always are comparing you to, and wants you to be like. The one they always have the upmost excuses for when it comes to their behavior when they do something negative. The one that they’re always there for their events all of the times but yet forget about yours. The one who get the best birthday party, but they forget your birthday party. The one that every event that the sibling has, your parents are always there, but they never show up for yours. This happens more times than not. I think it’s time that we start talking about this particular issue. Because a lot of people are independent because of the way their parents treated them compared to their siblings. And I know that this episode is going to hit a lot of people in a very bad way, and it’s going to leave a very bad taste in your mouth. And some of y’all gonna be sending me emails talking about I thank God you talked about this particular topic, because this is me when it came to my sibling or siblings. So I know personal to a lot of people. But I wanted to do this because I think it was time that we start addressing somebody’s topics that we don’t necessarily talk about nowhere. And the golden child syndrome when it comes to that favorite child, definitely needs to be discussed.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/you-minding-your-own-business--5280319/support.
