You are not TA… AT ALL. Society has normalized the concept that the only events worth celebrating are marriage or kids (aka smth to do with a man) and it’s just simply not true. Finishing your degree is such a big deal no matter who you are, esp if you are passionate about it! I’m so happy for you!!
That’s perfectly understandable. I felt the same way when I got my bachelors… I worked really hard on it. You did too. Graduating is supposed to be a big achievement in college. And when it feels like no one really cares about that achievement it stings. Especially if you ended up graduating with Latin Honors or Honors in general. I hope you know their lack of enthusiasm doesn’t make it any less of an achievement. You did that. Congratulations, you should feel proud of yourself at least!
And they never will. At the first parents death as revenge say “I don’t Know “ as an answer to every question they ask and Mae older sister responsible for all it and then during the wake complain about everything and refuse to compliment sister on anything and tell everyone sister was in charge sorry it looks, and this is important “sorry it only looks OK”.
