There’s a special kind of pain that comes from feeling invisible in your own family. The people who are supposed to see you most clearly sometimes hurt you the deepest—through neglect, blatant favoritism, or just looking right past you like you don’t exist.

In toxic workplaces, not having kids means your time off doesn’t count. Being childfree or single somehow makes you “always available” in your boss’s mind, like your holidays are less real because there aren’t children involved.
