I don't get why people these days can't lend a fucking hand when you need it. Whenever I ask for help nobody ever does shit, and when the notice that I'm mad somehow I get blamed for it!? Explain to me why I was the one to get in trouble for being mad that my "sister" can't get the hell off her fat lazy ass to make a second bottle of milk for my nephew...It's like they seriously don't give a damn about my simple little needs. I realize that my "mom" want her to be great along with my older brother but it's like why the hell she gonna tell me to stop when I didn't do anything wrong. Frankly I just don't like my family at all especially my siblings and parents. My parents divorced sometime around after the time I was born, so there's defiantly no memory of them taking care of me together in stories of when I was baby or in photos. My siblings however, I probably hate them the most every single one of them was raised by both parents up to an age where they could remember being taken care of, I don't. I have one older half brother,older full-blood brother and sister and one younger half brother. Sometimes I wonder why would my "mom" have another child when she hardly has enough time to look after the him now. She hardly...no barely had time with me so I don't think she can handle my dumbass little brother who can't even put something in the microwave without burning it at the age of 11...All of them had it easy,they had everything given and taught to them. I had to learn the hard way and do everything without anyone there.

Unfortunately, there are few solutions to this. Mine was just to be an introvert in my room until I went off to college where I am now. If your family is really that bad, then there are really no other solutions. Maybe learn to tune them out or something. Good luck X_X

>>2 Agreed.

I never had any help either. My mom wouldn't let me work, and she dragged me to several psychiatrists that said I would never be capable of taking care of myself (according to how SHE described me). So, I split, and moved in with my Dad who only really gave a damn about my stepsister, which actually alright enough for me at the time. However, I'm eighteen now, and he took all of the money I made at work when I was a minor. I lost everything, and still can't get a car now. I now I won't make it to college, so I'll be moving to another state for a factory job that pays a starting salary of $10/hour. He was paid regular child support, and even made more money off of me living with him. He doesn't pay for utilities, cable, or even the roof he's living under. Now, he's treating me like some kind of 'traitor,' because I went out and got my own bank account so I can keep his hands off my money. He keeps saying I need to grow up and get out of his house. It's his parents' house. And he's fifty. And believe me, I want to leave more than anything right now. Some people just have a shitty start. All you can do is make the most of it when you finally have the freedom to break away.

>>1 >>3 Well, My parents cared, and didn't do anything bad like that. In my case it is just that I can't stand my siblings and they can't stand me either, so we fight with a moment's notice. My parents just rarely took sides when needed, so it ended up being a whole mess of fights. Though I'll admit that my homework has always been too hard for my parents to be very helpful with and I'm an oldest sibling, so in my case it's been more a matter of lack of decisive help at stressful moments and thus my own efforts to minimize the stress (isolate from sources aka siblings). Good luck to you though, hope you can find your escape. ^_^
