So you and your siblings have already established that your parents see y’all as the family’s black sheep. But how do you know for sure who the family’s golden child is?
We know all the signs to look out for.
They get the biggest servings
Your parents will try to justify it by saying they need the most nutrients, especially if they’re the last born.
They always get the benefit of the doubts
With you, your parents will swear you did that shit. With them, they’ll refrain from making assumptions because there has to be a genuine reason why they did that shit.
They’re your parents’ personal adviser
Your parents rate their opinion AF, and that’s why they’ve made them the household’s official PA. And low key, you know this because if you need your parents to do shit, you know they’re the key to making it happen.
They run the most errands
We all know sending a child on multiple errands is the love language of Nigerian parents. So if your parents never wake you unprovoked to grab a purse that’s right beside them, you’re probably their least favourite child.
They snitch
Your secrets are never safe because they have no issues confessing y’all’s sins, and your parents LOVE them for that shit.
They hardly get scolded
Even if their sin is as flashy as Joseph’s coat of many colours, they’ll most likely get a bombastic side eye and a “Won’t you come and eat your food?” in rapid succession.
Their date of birth is your parents’ password
What other proof do you need if their D.O.B. is what unlocks laptops and phones or holds the key to their emails? They could have chosen any of y’all, but you know, golden child treatment and stuff.
