Wow, does this one ring bells!! I struggle like crazy with this issue, of being the bad daughter because I don't jump into the dysfunctional family business. My sister has started going on week-long (or more) out-of-town workshops. My mother gets sick regularly (with stuff like heat stroke, preventable, but someone has to take her to the ER).I'm the one here to do it and if I don't there is a whole host of people to look disapprovingly at me for it.
You have my sympathies. Life sucks real bad sometimes.
