Okay, so I'm 15 and my sister is 14. We share a room together. She cleaned it spotless, and whenever I put one little thing on the floor she threatens to hurt me if I don't stop "trashing the room" She will actually beat me until I pick up said object. For the last month or so, she will constantly call me stupid and idiotic, and that she hates me. She won't talk to me except to put me down. She doesn't express these feelings towards anyone else in the family. I've tried to figure out why she acts like this towards me and she refuses to talk, just calling me stupid. It's really been taking a toll on me and stressing me out. My parents let her get away with it to. My moms the same way and tells me she hates how I look. That I should be more like my sister. My parents have actually called her perfect. |

Well sharing a room doesn't always help lol Especially when you have different personalities and expectations. My sister and I shared a room when we were younger, but as teenagers I am sure we would have killed each other. If anything I would sit with one or both of your parents and tell them, you're not her, you're never going to be her and the fact that they act like you being yourself isn't good enough is one of the most hurtful things any parent can do to child. They are your parents, they are supposed to support and love you, sibling rivalry will most likely disappear through the years, but a parents shallow, vacant comments, will last a lifetime. |

If your parents cannot be swayed then all you can really do is to continue being yourself while still respecting them and obeying the rules of the house. You could always try talking to the councelors at your school and eventually maybe set up a meeting to discuss your feelings with your parents. Key thing though, surround yourself with friends that care about you to stem the tide of the pain in your problems. |

If you have discussed it with them and they don't get it, all you can do is ignore them and prove you don't need to be anyone but you to get where you want to go in life. |
