im 13 and they still make me go to bed at 9... alls i asked for for christmas was a new bed time, and i didnt get that... i do tons of work around the house, but its never enough to go hang out with my parents or have someone over... they make fun of me because i got dropped a math class... [i dont understand algebra, and they dont give a crap, they just get mad that im doin bad in the class...] my little brother scratches up all my games for xbox, and he cracked my brand new skateboard... im the big scapegoat around the house and everything is always me... my parents never have enough money for me to get sumthing, or go somehwere with my friends, but always enough money to buy a carton of ciggarettes... and i usually end up spending the day lying in my room thinking, unless i have to go to school.. i cant lock my door, and my parents wont help me with anything, homework, fixing something, nothing. idc if they are parents, u still have to give respect to get it, dont u?

I can understand Ur feelings coz it was pretty much the same thing with me.Being the middle child u feel a bit neglected.I am 16 and yet i am not allowed to lock my door!lil siblings do create problems,what u got to do is make them understand that ,that's really bothering u,u can be a bit strict with that one.It's really sad to know that Ur parents don't help u with anything but u can look at it positively ,because they don't help u u have learnt to do things on Ur own .I cant believe Ur parents make fun of u coz u got dropped in math class.this is really sad and unbelievable.when u will grow as an adult there will be many people who would make fun of u or make feel embarrassed in some way,that's coz every one is not a good human being,what I want to tell u is,just try and don't feel bad about it.One thing u can do is help Urself,just talk to Ur parents tell them how u feel,tell them that ur freaked out.If u do that then i guess everything will be alright and if it doesn't get alright u just need to be patient and look at life positively.I know its difficult but that's the only way to stay happy.GOOD LUCK!!

This is only my way of looking at a situation, When ever I see or hear about parents that do not appreciate their Children it makes my Blood boil over. You do not mentioned how many kids are in the Family or if there are brothers, or sisters, older, or younger, than you. I know how you must be feeling because even though I am no spring chicken as they say I can relate to you because when I was young as far as I can remember my Mother would always hit me with whatever she had in her hand or she would go look for a big, fat stick to hit me with it, why? maybe because I was the scapegoat of the family, since I had seven siblings some older and some younger than me, I endured a lot of pain later in my life because of those beatings. But I learned to stay out of her way or try not to make her angry at me. I remember thinking whenever my Mom beat me that when I grew older and get Married I would love my children a lot and would always be there for them. Please do not let this situation with your parents make you bitter. When you are older and making a life of your own do not make the same mistake that your Parents are doing to you. I know how you feel, like no one loves you or care about you but, if you think that your parents are really mean to you and you cannot take anymore of their abuse, you, can always report them with, the Abuse Hot Line that is in the Phone Directory, I am pretty sure that this people would be able to listen to you and will take care of this situation. I care, Please let me know how it all works out.,

That's a very sad situation. As a parent, I can't understand why some parents act that way. And unfortunately, there is nothing you can do about it at this age. Just do the best you can and continue to talk to your parents about how you feel. Talk to a school counselor also. If you have other family, talk to them! Hang in there and good luck.

wow. Try talking to your parents and tell them how you see things. Point out the things they do wrong to them. Tell them to respect your decisions. They should allow you to explore and learn from your mistakes. Just have more patience and hopefully after you talk to them they will start to change. if that doesn't work let someone from the family intervene grandparents or aunts and uncles.

Tell them this. Let them understand that if they don't help you, they shouldn't expect much.
