can parents favor another sibling more than the other?

Question

Because my parents favor both my older sisters. It's really upseting too. My mum and dad buys them everything, like clothes, shoes, jewelry, and they bought my sister a car. [but im not old enough to drive so it doesnt matter].

My one older sister is one year older than me [16], my other sister is [18]. And my parents dont make them do anything around the house, I mean, I do all the chores, I wash the dishes, I do the laundry, I feed my dog [milo], I clean the bathtub, my room, and take out the trash every night while my sisters talk on the phone w/ their boyfriends/ friends. They throw their dirty garbage around the house and I cant stand it and they tell me to pick it up to throw it away. The main thign they do around the house is,

- pass the dishes for dinner

- walk around the house talking on their cell phones

- ask for money from my parents and they do give them the money and I get zip. I'm 15, I think I derserve more allowence more than them and I know it.

-one time during school....my sister texted my mom in class to tell her to buy her some peanut-butter for after school so she can hang out with her friends.

- The oldest [18] is asking for a huge celbrating for her 18th birthday party [budget is $15,00]. And my parents agreed to it.

-They pay mroe attention to them more than me and its not because I'm the smallest.

Ok...let me tell u guys something and it's really hurtful, its made me upset for years. Two years ago...it was my birthday April 5 and I was turning 13 and they forgot. My sisters remembered but didnt tell my parents and they forgot. That really made me sad and I even cried.

I try to talk to them but they say stop bothering them...my mom is like a step-mom[ and i dont care] and my dad just sits around reading newspaper all day at work and home and give them money.

The only person/ dog I cna depend on is my lil borther and my dog [milo]. I dont know what I should do??

I do not have loyal friends I can depend on at school but two. They are both boys because I dont like hanging out with girls at my school [too much drama and I try to stay out of it] and they are the only ones I can depend on.

My parents dont even care wat I'm doing. I told them I was going out with Jordan and Vladamir to smoke weed and get high [to test them and see if they are really good parnets and if they really care bout me but it didnt work]...they just looked at me and said "hey..if u want to do that, go ahead". They didnt try to stop me. But I didnt really get high because I'm not ghetto and stupid like these other kids at my school..I onyl did it to test my parents and I cry all the time. Musi cis only want gets me.

Answer 1

With Family you just got to know there always going to be the ones to see you through, even after all your heartbreaks and all the loss of friends, family is the only one that you can't seem to get rid of! They may favor either one of you, that is how life is. As much as parents don't mean to favor sometimes it happens you just have to learn when to accept it and when enough is enough. There is a difference in rewarding a sibling and spoiling a sibling so just remember not to freak out and always tell them how your feeling because in the end you gave it your best and truth be told you tryed.

Answer 2

Being a Mother, I say "No" to your question. I do believe from what your feeling you are saying that you are not getting your fair share.Have you talked to your Mom and Dad?Tell them that your having feelings of being the only girl doing the chores around the house and give them examples.I as a parent would act on such a request.Then maybe they will take a look at your allowance also.

Answer 3

It does happen it is so wrong though i dont go as far as giving my kids different amounts of allowance they all get equally. U see my boy will do anything for me i know its wrong but i do tend to ask him to do alot cause i know he will do it without arguing.

Answer 4

that's awful, i'd be so angry. in my house i'm a twin and to me (and to her) it has always felt like she was the favourite, especially with our dad. i used to get called selfish and they were like why can't you be more like your sister. i told them how i felt, but of course they said it wasn't true.

my boyfriend has two younger brothers (one is 2 years younger, one is 7 years younger). his brothers do nothing to help and chris has to do everything and gets blamed for everything. if there's anything that goes wrong it's chris' fault but he still loves his family to bits. his dad always verbally abuses him and the 'middle' brother, calling them idle b@stards and saying that they're a waste of space and sometimes pushes them - he's a nice person but is really controlling of them. i can't wait to save chris when he comes and moves in with me in about a years time.
