my parents and family treating me?

Question

like dirt they have done since i was a couple of years old. i got a blood brother at 10. since then everything has gone more down hill. he is allowed to sleep on the couch not go to school. i get yelled at for his viruses. he gets bought something atleast every second day, from junk food to video games. my parents dont tell me what is going on money etc. parents have never really spoken to me other than to yell at me for doing something wrong. they have not encouraged me to do anything with my life or any little goals chores etc. brother sits on computer all day and my parents speak to him nicely and create conversations. parents wonder why i am so """uptight" brother doesnt even make himself a drink my father gets it for him and takes it to him. brother asks he gets right away(drop everything for him) i maybe 24 but my parents have never communicated with me other than create an arguement then they call the police. i have had 1 girlfriend of 3 years i dont have any self esteem

You do need to start acting like an adult but you also need to accept things for what they are. If you don't like it do something about it!!! Talk to a counseller about your self esteem issues, finda job and make your own income to get your own place with your own rules. You also have to realize your brother is 14! Things are different at fourteen than at 24 you can blame your parents and feel sorry for yourself or get off your butt and do something to change your life! sign up for school look at what you have not what you haven't got!

First of all, you should look for positive things with your relationship with your family. Second of all, maybe you should consider moving out on your own. It sounds like you might be a little jealous of your brother. You should try to develop a good relationship with him as well as your parents. You only have one family. Most importantly, get down on your knees and pray. God will help you through anything.

It sounds to me like you just have alot of problems. Have you tried talking to your parents, or your brother? What about a counselor? Have you been physically harmed/neglected? It sounds as if your being abused. I've been in your situation before.. In fact, I'm in the middle of a much milder case of 'picking favorites'. Get help, try reasoning, do your best. Just whatever  you do, do your best, even if your best is never good enough for them, make it good enough for you.

Seek counseling first. Address the issues you have had to deal with. I don't know why your parents have treated you like this. Maybe for some reason they hold a grudge. If you can, talk to them about it. If you are unable to carry on a converstation with them, consider writing it out for them and 'talking' to them through a letter. This at least gives you the opportunity to be 'heard'.

did you say that you were 24 and living at home with your parents? 

okay, do you at least pay your own share of the bills?

start there. once you start acting like an adult they will treat you more like one. and once you start paying your own way you will have more self esteem.

maybe enough to go to trade school and get a trade where you can afford a place of your own, a car of your own and a girl of your own.
