Red Headed Step Child 

A stepchild might be singled out for abuse. But a red-headed stepchild (who presumably looks like his or her absent birth-parent) might be abused even more because he or she is so obviously different from the other children.

Myles was the red-head step child of the family, he was never invited to the family reunions.

an unwanted, (ashamed of) child. Less than desired child

Mike was the red headed step child of the family, treated pretty shabbily.

red headed step child 

A bashling. Some one who is singled out for emotional abuse and/or physical abuse. Some one who gets purposely written out of their inheritance. Some one with no birth rights. Some one purposely neglected financially. The unfavored one.

In my father's family I was just a red headed step child.

red headed step-child 

Derives its meaning from the idea that;
1. Red heads are to be avoided
2. That step children are to be avoided.

So the idea of the both combined is doubly hateful
