Is it discrimination if I am treated differently for being family?

As the title says, my boss is a relative, I am constantly being treated differently in a negative way because I’m family. ie. Don’t receive the same pay for same work, am required to work harder than others who make the same or more money, my day is significantly packed with more work while others just kind of float around and get paid. When I ask if there is a future for me the job with increase I get eye rolls and snide comments like “just do the job for what your paid and shut up” while others don’t get that treatment. I feel used, I feel unappreciated, I work hard and prove that I’m worth more and I want to know if this is allowed.
