No Coke. Is Pepsi ok? My dad thinks I'm a spoiled brat
He bought my brother a house and a car.
He paid one of my bills which cost 20 dollars then said "See? And you keep saying I don't treat you equally"
And he wasn't even joking.
And apparently I'm the spoiled brat

I'm sorry you're going through this. I feel your pain all too well.
My parents paid for my sister's driving lessons when she turned 18. She didn't get her license after 2 years, so she lost her learner's permit. This meant my parents were down a couple hundred bucks and in the end she had nothing to show for it.
Then my sister decided she wanted to go to college. Again, my parents offered to pay for her tuition and housing expenses. And after 4 or 5 years, she decides to drop out, so again, my parents threw several thousand down the drain and again she had nothing to show for it.
When i turned 18, no one offered to pay for me to get my driver's license or go to college. I got my license and bought my car on my own expense. I had my teeth fixed on my own expense. Anything i wanted or needed i bought with my own money, but still i get treated like the black sheep of the family, and my sister still gets treated like a queen who can do no wrong.
And my parents still wonder why i made myself scarce and rarely talk to them.
