 Coolness: 174200 | honestly i dont expect the same things that my sister gets, i dont even want the same things. What pisses me off is the encouragement, the lack there of. The speechs of how im wasting my life in arts.
i dont care about the trips. what i also care about is the fact my mother pays for my sisters car and she works two jobs to pay for, and my sister does sweet fuck all and coasts through school not even trying. dino you have no idea how expensive moving out is. Also i dont want to have this job at all, and my rents know that, but they wont help me in school. My sister gets to do what she wants...which is go to scratch and get trips to florida, and do her web designing. |

 Coolness: 61955 | Hey, my mom said she prefers my brother over me. She said all parents have their favorites. My dad likes me better. 'Cept he lives in another continent. So I got the shitty end of the deal. I know what its like Jeff, I wish parents could hear themselves and watch the way they act.
Just remember this when u start having jungle babies and learn from this experience. |

 Coolness: 91800 | When I was a kid, I always got more freedom than my brother, as a result of being four years older..but I think my brother saw it as me being the favorite. That and I was always getting better grades, thus my brother probably developed feelings of inferiority. Now my brother is kinda messed up..well not just kinda, REALLY messed up. |

| Coolness: 73950 | im an only child, drilled with family values and eternally blessed for everything me mam and pop have given me.
but they claim im spoiled and they tell me so on a regular basis to remind me to be polite and push myself to do better so i can surpass them in the future. every generation in my family does better than the previous, so i think theyre making sure i dont fuck up on the road to success. guilt works wonders in my family. |

 Coolness: 121025 | I'm pretty much in the same situation as you Jeff. I was brougth up in the post-communist period in former Yugoslavia. Since I was born I was drilled to respect others and since my family is huuuuge, the family values were a big priority. Not just for us but that whole region. When we moved here my brother was only 5 and the only life he knows is the one he had here. He has no respect for anyone and he's a spoiled little bitch. He even calls our parents by their 1st name and it frustrates me so much. He's always getting everything he wants and he even failed sec 1, barely passed sec 2 and is so-so strugling with sec 3. I passed sec 1 with barely speaking any french but since my grades weren't as high as my parents wanted, my parents would bring it up every day untill they totally crushed me. What happened when my brother failed sec 1? absolutely nothing.. not even a spanking or anything, just some bs threats about him getting beaten up.
1st children seem to be always the ones that have to suffer because of those who come after. We should unite and kick their asses =Þ |

 Coolness: 77535 | i have no idea who my parents favour between my brother and I. they used to yell at him to be like me, now they yell at me to be like him [but it's only because he started making a lot of $$$]. so... parents are crazy and stuff and thats how i take it. they just think of me as a pot head kid who only likes music and clothes and it pisses me off because they can't grasp depth in an individual if they don't carry the same interestes as them.
fuck the guilt though, i live for me, but i love them to death. |

 Coolness: 121550 | yeah- that sucks alot jeff, :(
i'm really happy my parents are supporting me in what i want to do, and i know it must be so frustrating. a friend of a friend of mine is in the same boat, except she's being forced into studying sciences instead of art (hell she'd be happy doing architecture she hates it so much) maybe you shold tell them how you really feel. and you DO have choices, even if they don't want to support you always look 2 steps ahead and decide what you want to do, even if it'll take longer to get what you want it's always worth it in the end |

| Coolness: 174200 | well ill be finally out of debt in a year. But another problem i love my parents a lot, and my father is doing all this work, giving himself all this stress with building this company so i can one day provide my family with the same things he's provided me. So i feel guilty if i don't follow his footsteps. I know for a fact he didn't want this career, but i'm now stuck in the same situation. |
