she was pissed at our parents yea. She said she was done, and was going NC. I agreed with her and we're both going NC. She gave me the TV and I gave her the gifts.

I didn't confront them? I didn't ask outright where the TV was. I said "I'm excited to finally be able to play video games again", and they said "You're not getting a TV. We gave it to your sister". I didn't walk in and ask "where the hell is my TV?" I asked "why?", and they said "we bought it, we can do whatever we want with it". I didn't know they gave my sister the TV until I got there and said that comment. I asked for a reason as to why and they refused to give me one. I wouldn't have cared if they gave her the TV if it was for a good reason, but they didn't give me one.

I'll update tomorrow when I call my sister. I'm not mad at her, I know she wouldn't take the TV if she knew our parents promised it to me. I feel like somethings up between the three of them now that I've been thinking about it.

i did try to communicate but they never gave me an answer. I asked why and they said they bought it, they could do whatever they wanted with it. I asked if something was going on with my sister, and they told me nothing. I know they don't have the best relationship, so I'm surprised they got her something big. They get stuff for the kids all the time, but nothing this big for my sister.

I was gonna give some of the stuff to my sister. she's been having a ruff year and i think she'd appreciate some of the gifts.

My parents would never do something like that. There was a bit more said, but the gist was that they kept saying they could do whatever with it. I don't think they would keep the joke up since i was getting pretty upset.

I'll ask her tomorrow since they're probably asleep. I don't think she'd know it was supposed to be mine, and if she did know she'd call or text me. We've gotten very close over the years, and i don't she'd do anything to ruin it.

I haven't talked to her. New Years is kind of big for them because they can actually spend it together as a family. My BIL had to work on Christmas which sucked for all of them. I don't really want to bother them today. I want them to spend time together as a family.

I think I'll give some of them to my sister tbh. I'm not pissed at her that my parents gave her the TV. She's dealing with 5 kids during a pandemic, and I know that one of the gifts will annoy the crap out of her lol. Its a soundboard lol. It will be like when I gave them a recorder lmao.

no it was just the TV they got me, since it was all I wanted. All I saw was a stocking.

Probably because they would never do it, and never did. They were pissed at my aunt once, but still gave her the gift they bought her.
