My whole life my brother and two sisters have gotten more attention than me. (I am the youngest) I’m 15 years old btw. My parents spend the most time on my two troubled sisters who both moved out, and one recently moved out too. My sister hates me for no reason and I’ve done nothing but be nice to her my whole life. My parents spoiled her and spent time on trying to make her happy they forgot about me. My mom recently was crying and told me she felt bad because she feels like she neglected me, and i felt bad because she was crying because of me. Recently an incident happened when my sister destroyed my room and called me out my name and my mom was more worried about her than me ( my dad was at work). I’m just now feeling the neglect because when I need her the most she’s worried about her other kids. I don’t know how to deal with this feeling of sadness and not being wanted so I’m just in my bed crying right now. Any advice on feeling better?

I feel like your mom deos love you because if she didnt she wouldnt cry and feel bad and realize what she is doing wrong, i think its always hard being in a situation like that because you feel alone but maybe your parents are overwhelmed by the other children and you are the more layed back one and they dont bother with you as much because your easier to raise. Dont take it personal or cry i would maybe express how you feel to them . You did mention that your sister were troubled , that could be another reason why you feel neglected because they are trying to fix them and try and get them on the right path and its taking time away from you.
Replyi know :/ its just all my siblings are over 18. It should be a age limit where parents stop babying freaking adults! All i want is a little time to spend with my parents and for them to hug me or to help me feel better. One day ill be older and we won’t even have a relationship, i feel like i have to depend on myself
ReplyWe can't choose our family but no matter, they are still family and I'm very sure that you love each other. One day, you will be older and wiser. We're all fighting in life daily. We're all depending on ourselves. You'd look back one day and think, "I did it! Why did I think I couldn't?". As you grow older, you'll come to understand why your family did what they did and you'll learn to love them and appreciate them. They will feel the same for you. I have 2 younger sisters. If I ever lost them, I'd blame myself, I'd ask why. Where did I go wrong. Even though it wasn't my fault. No matter how old we get, they will always be my baby sisters. Be open to them. Share. They'll appreciate it. If it's a hug you need, go for it. Your family will see it as a mature gesture. Remember, you're only 15, you have such an amazing life ahead of you. I don't know you, but I believe in you! It takes time. Everything does. Give everyone a chance. Now put a smile on that face, puff up your chest, and take on the world like I know you can!
ReplyI 100% know where you are coming from, I basically in the same shoes as you except my age gap from my sister is 11 years. I am also the younger one. We don't see eye to eye but trust me it sucks when you do alot more top help your parents out while your siblings think they rule the house and act like the world owes them, your parents see how they act towards you, for the longest time I thought no one in house even knew I exisited unless I did something they did not like. So I was only existing when they were yelling at me, but as I got older, my parents respected me and treated me like an equal , while they treat my sister like a child because she can act like one. When I was around your age basically my whole high school years I chose to spend time with my friends instead of my family and then got a job and now I work and me and my parents have a fantastic relationship. I hope this helps 😊
ReplyI lived through that. You can too. Let it make you tougher. Dont be a bitter prick, maybe you have your head on straight and your parents dont have to worry about you so much.
Want their attention? Do random chores to help out. Study hard and make good grades. They will see that you are the responsible one, and they will greatly appreciate it. Stay safe.
