I'm getting angry at my parents a lot. Any advice?

Question

Everyone knows my sister's my dad's favorite. My brother makes strait D's well I try and get C's and B's but they dote on my brother every time he gets a passing grade. My mom is hard on me and, I think defenetly hates my grades. she's excited for my brother though.

Also, my younger brother - and sometimes my father! - go out in public with their shirts inside out. It's SO annoying. My dad wears mismatched socks, but screams at me if I go around the house with my hair not combed.

I want to move out but I cant, Im only 16. Im sick of getting yelled at. My sister can wear her hair in a mop and still be called cute because she's skinny.

ANY ADVICE ON WHAT I CAN DO? Please?

and I never intentonally get in trouble.

Answer 1

dont worry, i know exactly how you feel.
you're the middle child right.
me too.
my parents only yell at me when they talk to me and they always praise my older sister and younger brother but they never compliment me. and they always let the other two get away with stuff, but they always come down hard on me. don't worry though only a couple more years til you can move out, then you'll make something of your self and shove it in their faces. that's what i'm planning to do anyway. good luck. By the way i two years younger than you so be glad you can get out of this easier than me.

Answer 2

You can either learn to love your family for who they are or you CAN move out, it is called becoming an "emancipated" teen. If you truly feel that you would be better off without your family here is what you have to do,. Go to court explain how you feel you would be better off on your own than in your parents home. Then once you do become emancipated, get a job, rent your own apartment and become responsible for not only the rent but every bill that comes into the apartment, the electric, the water, the gas, the internet, the cable, the phone as well as grocieres. You will also no longer be covered under any of your parent's insurances so you will have to be able to pay for all of your own medical/dental expenses, and hope you don't go into hospital becuase, yeppers YOU will be responsible to pay for that as well. If you have a driver's license and your parents have purchased a car for you, you will either loose the car (it's in your parent's name so it is acutally THEIR car) or the court will instruct you to buy it from them at fair market value. Then of course there is the car insurance you will be responsible for as well as maintainance. So take your pick. But quit whining. I suspect that is the reason your parents are so "hard" on you, you need to grow up.

Answer 3

you fall in the family of the favoritism. try talking with your parents about it, it doesn't mean they don't love you at all, well 2 more yrs is all you need, once you got a full time job , ask your friends to rent together, to it won't be hard for you, tell your parents what you feel before you leave and why are you leaving,

the good thing of being yellled by your parents, you pursue more, you struggle more to get things what you want in your life, you will end up in a better future, don't mind your parents if they like your brother and sister more than you, because you will be laughing at the end

Answer 4

If you don't feel you can talk to your parents then try writing them a letter on how they make you feel. Be open but keep it calm - upsetting them will only make it worse or try talking with the school councilor. Or maybe a close family relative you trust. hopefully you can get together with your family as a group and openly discuss the issues at hand. If it were up to me I would advise family counseling but you are 16 and would need outside help setting it up like with the councilors help. good luck

Answer 5

Answer 6

Ignore those facts and try talking to ur family members indivisually on a calm and happy day like ur birthday and tell them ur problem. Or ask ur friends parents or teacher to make ur family members understand ur problem. C u feel very bad when they something to u but afterall parents r the only person u can't ignore. They gave u almost every thing which u needed. Just wait for 2 more years then things will change . PATIENCE!! is needed.

Answer 7

parents treat each child differently. that doesn't mean they don't love you. they are seeing each child, for what they think, is their potential. they probably think you could do better with your grades, because they feel you have the smarts to do it. you should try to prove them right. sounds like you feel they complain about you, but look at what you wrote, you are complaining about them. if you think they are wrong, you shouldn't be doing the same thing. you may be more like your parents, than you think. instead of complaing and being jealous of your siblings, why don't you try to work on your short comings. don't blame other people, or dislike them because they are not the way YOU want them to be. doesn't that seem like why you are mad at them? maybe, they complain so much about you, because you are complaining so much about them. you're not willing to change for them, why should they change for you? maybe if you stopped the negativity, they will, too. good luck

Answer 9

Maybe they just expect more from you than they do the other kids. They need to give you more praise for what you do. Have you tried to talk to them and tell them how you feel? Be glad in the fact that you have parents, because someday they will be gone.

Answer 10

YOU need to sit down with your parents and talk about how you are feeling. There is always a problem when you have siblings your age, Sit down with your parents and let them know what is going on, and be TRUE
