My mother and father give much attention to my brothers and sisters. They barely give any to me and I want attention. My brothers and sisters hit, scream, kick, cry, and get their way all the time. I do all the babysitting for four children. I do not (hardly) get paid. I have been doing this for two weeks, since my brother got placed in public school. I have to babysit for a 10yrold, an 8yrold, and a 5yrold. I do get out daily, but how can I demand my parents pay attention to me? My father barley talks to me when I talk to him but DEMANDS attention from the others. My mother doesn't want me to start public school but she's willing to put my 10yrold sister in it.
What can I do to demand attention? Because I'm starting to slip through the cracks and go un-noticed... and I don't know how much more of this un-noticedness I can take.
I'd also like to do it without getting in trouble. I have a clean record with my parents, and I'd like to keep it that way.
