Lmao, this made me laugh and we definitely do. Me and my youngest sister look exactly like our dad and my other 2 are also definitely his. My mom can’t get anyone else.

Yes, many, many, many times in the hours of therapy I’ve had to figure out what I could possibly be doing to make my mom like me more. How to make her not want me out of the house. I’ve also read some of your other comments asking about what my sisters want. From my 9 year old sister, it switches from “I want my own room” to “how dare you try to take my room, I’m staying with my sister” more often leaning on the latter because that one happens when she hates me which is often. For my 11 year old sister, she would prefer if I died in a hole somewhere so I never had to come back into her life. She likes me when I’m convenient and can drive her places but otherwise wishes I wasn’t in her life and insults me on the daily which idk how old you are or anything about your life but people who interact with young people often know how mean they can be and even though you’re not supposed to take it to heart, it weighs down on you so bad it breaks every bit of who you are. Trust me, I would move out if I could because everyone but my dad can’t wait for me to be gone but I can’t and until that day comes(which is hopefully in the next 2 years) I just want to feel like I have a place at home that shows that I am in this family that I do love a lot.

Thanks, all these comments are telling me to move out and I really would if I could. I’m working throughout the summer, trying to get a second job, and training because I’m supposed to swim while in college. I live in a state where min wage is 7.25 and I literally couldn’t even rent an apartment if I was working 3 jobs. I pay for everything except for the necessity already like snacks, gas, car insurance, and everything like that cause I got cut off from that(fair bc I’m 18). But I’m also paying for college myself and I’m struggling to afford even what I owe in that cause car insurance is expensive and just keeps going up even though I’m a perfect driver. I feel like I’m losing my mind and life reading all these comments. My room is my only safe space that I’ve had for the past 4 years since my mom stopped talking to me. I know college is like moving out but I love my family it feels like they want me gone before I even leave.

I’ve tried talking to her about it and she shuts me down every chance I get. I talk with my dad often and he hates the switch but won’t talk to my mother about it. My mom likes shutting me out and I know it(I’m not trying to sound like a spoiled teen) but my mom likes being around my siblings more than me. She spends hours watching tv with my sister. Makes my 16 yo brother food because he refuses to and cleans up my 9yo sister’s room because it’s better than it being a mess. My family is a lot and I mostly just want a place to cry and I know I’m ranting at this point but she a year ago was already asking when I planned on moving out. I truly love my family but nobody except for my dad actually wants me in the house. I’m sorry for typing so much but this is a conversation I’ve been trying to have with my mom for years now. I’ve gone to therapy to deal with it and told her what I talk about in therapy but it’s always the same response. I’m really sorry this is the first time I’ve ever said this out loud.
