this reminds me of a story my mom told me...
once she was givng a talk while i was a toddler, so she asked a sister in the hall to watch me while she gave the part. well, this sister turned out to be kind of a space cadet, and i wandered away from her, onto the stage, and into my mommies lap, haha. she put me on her lap, and finished the talk.
anyway, chloe, you may feel like you are being abused (and no doubt you are), but one day someone will notice all the hard work you're doing, and you be rewarded for it (maybe with a millon dollars or something; or a pat on the back).

Being rewarded...
have you heard this illustration...
Parent & Child in a store, shopkeeper says to the child to take a handful of the candies in the jar, child seems apprehensive and doesn't comply, storekeeper repeats until finally he takes a handful and hands it to the child. After leaving the store parent inquires as to why the child didn't take for themselves.... child responds 'did you see the size of his hands'... I would not have gotten nearly as much if I had taken for myself.
Be patient & we'll be rewarded too!
