Cursory: A lady has become the first college graduate in her family but not a single family member congratulated her Netizens shower her with comforting words in the comments.


A brilliant young woman has broken the jinx in her family by becoming the first college graduate in her family and no one even cared.
When you become the first in your family to do something, you are either celebrated or resented. This poor woman felt isolated when she graduated from college.
Twitter user @nauticakjm shared how not a single family member congratulated her for graduating, and it hurt. She thought she was making her family proud but it turns out they did not even care.
“Not a single soul in my family knew, cared or acknowledged that I graduated. I’m a first gen college graduate ♀️”

@_crownedboujie said: “These people are incredibly toxic. Celebrate, babe. You’ve done something they never did.”
@Iontcby said: “I learned that when school was never important to them they don’t realize it’s a huge accomplishment. Congratulations though girly I hope you get everything you want outta that degree!!”
@modernluxuries said: “Congrats! Word of advice, start ignoring them now. They will recognize your degree when they need advice, money for the next baby shower or getting out of prison party. Move on, love yourself and start celebrating you on your own terms.”
