i feel ya. i have a step sister and it seems my dad treats her better than me. but i soon realized it was my step mom doing all the spoiling. men dont like shopping and calling people up. if it was your mom and her dad i bet you would be the one spoiled. i think your step mom just drags your dad into the situation. i know it sucks especially when you have kids too. my step sis does not have kids and i do. he never sees me. her mom bought her a brand new truck and said they got it for her and my dad has never bought me a car before. but its all in your head about your dad. your stepmom is doing the spoiling trust me. but if you want you can tell your dad how you feel which it would be a good thing but he might discuss it to his wife and i dont know what she is capable of doing and saying so look out for the pros and cons before telling him. i dont know your dad but he loves you very much and dont let anyone tell you differ.

The good news is you actually like this half-sister. It would be horrible if you didn't.
You can think long and hard about why they are so ga-ga over this kid and it will probably never make sense to you emotionally even if you understand it intellectually. She somehow makes them feel a certain way about themselves as parents that no one else does. This sounds great but in practice, a kid who knows she has that responsibility does bear a burden - which is not always pleasant.
Watching your parents and her must be like watching the perfect married couple - it looks idyllic but the older you get, the more you know it is not perfect because nothing is perfect.
So just grit your teeth at the injustice of it all. It can't be changed. If they were calling you every single day, there is a chance that you might not like that after all.
The only way to stop this from hurting so much is to try to see it in that perspective, or any other perspective. The 'It's not fair!' perspective doesn't do you any good, or anybody else.

I know why she is the favorite. I have three children and one is left out of most family activities. There is a reason for this..... the reason is she is never there when family needs her. She also makes us feel unwelcome in her home. She only visits when she need money or a favor. Her husband tells the children we are bad people. People will go where they feel they are welcomed and will give their love to those they feel love them. If you do small things for them without them having to ask, tell them how good they were to you growing up and let them know you enjoy their company. If you give more than you think you are receiving you will find one day how they are telling people how great you are and how proud they are of you.

You may have to make a more direct effort to be involved when you are with them in person. There's not much you can do about making them call you. I have the exact same problem with my own family. You can try opening a conversation about what you are feeling, but it's a risk as to whether or not you get the outcome you are looking for.

I know it's hard but don't worry about it, you gotta do good for yourself. But I was always told that the one you cherish most will 9 x's out of 10 be the one to come back and bite you in the a*s and for the mean time focus more on yourself and your happiness.

Gee, for somebody claiming she does no longer mean to offend everybody, you specific are rather offensive. rather, Judaism replaced into no longer outfitted on self-adoration and narcissistic ideals. it incredibly is between the few significant religions that considers non-believers to be on par with believers, as antagonistic to Christianity, Islam and Hinduism, all of which look down on non-believers as inferior, in accordance to their scriptures (i'm no longer asserting that maximum human beings of those religions who you meet think of that--i've got met practically no person that does have faith that--besides the fact that it incredibly is greater a depend of what it says interior the scriptures touching directly to who gets stored and who is going to hell or is condemned to a pair different undesirable destiny via no longer being a member of the religion. And it incredibly is rather been believed interior the previous, and resulted interior the deaths of tens of millions). in addition to, Judaism replaced into outfitted on kindness to animals, between the 1st religions to have humane therapy of animals as an crucial area of it. It replaced into outfitted on popularity of human beings's religions--they have as lots top to have faith what they do, as Jews do, and are not regarded down upon or concept to be inferior. And no, the god of the OT and the NT isn't the comparable. of direction, if one is a believer, then they may be the comparable, because of the fact there is largely one god. yet whilst one isn't a believer, then one is conscious that the two the NT and the OT have been written via numerous distinctive human beings, which bills for why there are numerous of distinctive tones in the process the countless e book, some boastful and militia, some sympathetic and information, so harsh and unforgiving. in spite of everything, Jewish concept is style of a rose, with many layers. on the middle is the middle concept, the thought existence could be risk-free--ALL human existence, no longer basically oneself or one's human beings. The added layers in basic terms upload to that concept interior the maintenance of existence, extending it by using regulations meant to maintain existence, human and animal, and preserve the organic ecosystem.

Other than approaching them and letting them know exactly how you feel I don't know. You are an adult and as such should be brace enough to approach them with these concerns.

Stop seeing them. Then you don't have to hear about your sister all the time, and they don't have to waste time ignoring you.
