Nothing sours the taste of hard-won success quite like a family member who thinks your achievement is up for grabs. After years of late nights, straight As, and community service, this freshly accepted university student found her celebration interrupted by a cousin who treats studying like a contagious disease and an aunt who believes admissions should be decided by family consensus. The cousin, famous for skipping class and «living her best life,» didn’t get in. So her mother, armed with a sense of entitlement that could power a small city, marched over to demand that the diligent student simply give up her spot, as if university acceptance was a party favor to be handed out at will.
