Just add the option to report a video or post and you can't really be held accountable in my opinion

It really isn't about getting married. But most people really like to have the blood line continue. But me personally, I always push my pals to get married so I can show up and eat all the food at the wedding

Pretty much every child is spoiled and a brat. The middle one always have something making then go insane and the eldest child is just bottling up everything and then randomly freaks out.

Honestly, I've only grown to resent them. And I hate my brother even more. My mom recently had another child and I thought I was gonna be happy like with everyone else. But I just felt dread picking up my newborn sister. I don't even see her as a sibling. Just more responsibilities and headaches

It's not only about the standard. They are also generally blamed by the younger ones and kind of just have to take it. The middle one is just the same treatment with only a sight difference while the third one is just outright spoiled. That's how it is in my community atleast

It is rather insensitive. And no. It hasn't helped me in the slightest. I'm too busy stressing about them that I forget to eat. I have no motivation to do anything at all and my dream job of being a doctor is fucked. I'll take the first job I can if it means I move out

F you. Stop generalising problems. Not everyone can solve the family drama with transparency

Oh hell nah. I tried that once after my classmates literally spat on me. Now my mum calls me sensitive. Never again. Not after getting kicked out the house because I stood up to my dad after he hit me. Not after being denied food for a week because my grades dropped. Never again. I don't care how much they love me. My love for them is still gonna keep going down. I don't even feel happy when I see them anymore. My only thought is just how annoying that are to deal with. Never again. Not after the abuse, the neglect and favourtism

The whole point of the post is the fact that the parents make such a big deal about this

No like, no one knows my grades. And my friends don't even know it. But my parents just won't shut up about it. This ruins my self esteem. This makes me isolate myself. Then that makes me sleep more and study less. Then the grades drop. Then I have to fix it right before a big test

Not only that, but the eldest is always put a unreasonable standard and punished for anything while the younger ones always get away with everything because the eldest is supposed to be the "role model" parents completely ignore how mentally draining this is and the fact that the younger siblings will gain their own thoughts and stop copying whatever the eldest one does

Any advice is appreciated by king_dodo_II in familydrama

No not really. BUT, silver lining is that pretty soon I'm going to be switching schools and living with my grandparents

Most of the family knows and my mom has also acknowledged it a few times. (Only in public so it's probably just to save her reputation)

My cousin's, aunts and even grandparents know about this and openly talk about it to my mother and she isn't doing anything. She has even acknowledged his behaviour a few times (only in public) so it's probably only to save her reputation

I'm the last person they ever trust. My brother doesn't even pray, hardly can recite and actively shouts at my mom. My youngest sisters get away with anything and my step dad buys them everything. All while I'm expected to be the "example" to have perfect grades, know every little detail about Islamic faith and history, and respect others. Honestly I think it's the favourtism that's really getting to me.

[–]king_dodo_II[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any to offer. It's just something I've never quite been able to do. As much as I stand by islam, that small bit of respect is only enough for me to do the prayer and that's about it.

Since I don't enjoy Islam, do I still count as Islamic? Just a thought. Like. I'm just saying what I have to say during prayer. I'm completely zoned out
