I feel like my family is blaming me for everything wrong with their lives. My brother and I are going to college and i didnt have the money to pay my half of the parking permit and he said he'd pay for it and then when I get a job, ill give him my half. I'm ready to pay him now and he didnt apply for the parking permit and he is blaming it on me. I am the middle child and my mom is a single parent but this is getting out of hand. I graduated from high school nearly 3 months ago and I didn't get a grad present or a night out to celebrate with my family. My older brother got a brand new television and a night out without even saying a word. Sometimes I feel like I shouldn't belong in my family and I just want to say "F*** YOU" and walk away forever. I just don't know how to cope with this and I can't keep feeling like this day in and day out. What should I do?

talk.
communication is key man. if your mom doesnt acnoledge you and you feel out of place just tell her. this sorta thing happend to me, different situation for me, but i just told my parents "look, i think im being treated unfairly" and we worked it out. just try it. and whatever you do try not to get angry. getting angy will get you in more trouble so to speak.

I am a mom of 4 and I know that middle kids get the shaft. It's really not intentional, parents go all out for the first child and the younger kids don't get as much. The reason this happens is that it's the parents first time along with the child's-it becomes old news when the 2nd kid does things, the novelty wears off. Sometimes you just have to speak up and tell your family what you want. My 2nd son tells me when things aren't fair to him, other wise I would never know. Sometimes finance are to blame, less money now than when your brother graduated. Don't give up on your family, talk to them. Good luck!

You are at an age where you need to try to get your life as an adult started. Focus on that. Then when you have a bit more confidence as an individual talk to your family.
Or talk to them now, but realize that your family is not perfect, and never will be. Learn the lesson that some people live their lives blaming everyone else for their problems. Then make the decision not to live like that yourself and be appreciative that you have the self awareness to learn that lesson.
I've had some very similar experiences with family. You can get beyond this and have a happy life.

your best ticket toward maturity and independence from your family is to keep your plans for college. If possible do a work-study plan to earn money. Ask at the financial aid office. You can have a successful career and one day have a family of you own and treat them the right way.
New high school grads can't find good jobs.

I more commonly would slender down your determination greater if you happen to familiarize me with the plot or a few characters by means of the very least. What is the style? Well, I am going to anticipate it is fable considering the fact that you are saying "powers". I feel so, whether it is indispensable to the storyline.
