Imagine not being nice and kind to your family but choosing to be generous to strangers and outsiders, your parents can not call you to demand urgent funds, and you are always broke to help them but when they host an event in your community and ask you to donate, you give out big amounts, you go to church and also donate there.

Strangers enjoy family privilege while families are treated as strangers. You forget there was a time when you were helpless and family was your strength. They fed you, protected you, and clothed you until you were strong enough to be on your own.
Those people deserved your love, not the strangers that you barely knew, unfortunately, we have people like this in the world, they cherish outsiders more than their blood... Madness of the heart.
Some children will grow up to become rich and tag their mothers as witches and refuse to accommodate them in their house, the same woman who gave birth to you and didn't kill you when you were a helpless child, is the same person you tagged witch in her old age, you forgot she used to be a beautiful woman in her prime and you will one day become old too.
Treat your parent the same you would want your children to treat you, treat them with love, and do not let them regret bringing you into this world, on the day you were born, they were full of smiles, do not let that smile turn to sadness now... you owed them everything.

I come from a family of 8, 5 siblings and I am the last born, we treat each other with kindness and are always there for one another... My babe told me one day that we love ourselves in our family and I was like isn't this a norm? should siblings hate each other? but I know she is right, we have some families that dislike one another and are not ready to help each other in time of need.
I am glad to have been born into this family because I know if anything goes wrong, they are ready to support me with the little they have, I can always count on them in times of need, and even though we do have disagreements sometimes but it never lasts long and never to the extent of wishing each other bad, we settle it without apologizing, that is the definition of family, letting go of grudges easily.
