Whiney Little Bitch

[tjbyrum1]

I hate how everytime I do something right - I get yelled at for it.

Me, and two others are tasked with washing dishes. I wash my share, the other two do nothing. Parents arrive home, and I get yelled at for it. Getting yelled at for washing dishes and doing as I was told? So I no longer wash dishes.

Once I was tasked with cleaning the house. I cleaned up, fixed everything, my sister vacuumed, and my brother did nothing. Yet again, I was yelled at - for doing the right thing and doing as I was told. I no longer do what I should.

For me not doing anything, I get punished. My brother does nothing, and can do whatever he wants. Why and how? This makes me mad, I just do not understand.

I built a good reputation as a little child, and now its reflecting and they pile everything on me. I get blamed for everything and anything.

So... what are we gonna do about it?

Their house, their rules. Until you're in a position to leave, them's the breaks, I'm afraid.

 

[cheezMcNASTY]

yeah.... even if your parents are abusive, they are the law until you're no longer a minor unless you were to get rid of their custody somehow.
deal with it, there are people who have to put up with more than you do. not that i do, but i have friends who were WAY worse off than that and never uttered a complaint.

 

[Angel]

Plus "abuse" gets used a lot these days as a buzz word for "discipline". I'm not saying that's the case here, but a little definition would be handy.

There's a world of difference between battering your kids and giving them a well-deserved slap upside the head for being rude and disrespectful. My kids disrespect me? By hell they'll know about it...

 

[zmalt]

Agree with all of the above. Calmly explaining to your parents that maybe an issue of fairness needs to be discussed is one thing. Outright refusing to obey/acting violent/blaming others is another thing completely. Respect for others is one of the most useful things to have, makes your stay here on planet earth much more tolerable.

 

[tjbyrum1]

I don't mind helping out, and no I am not a Kid. Though I do not want to say my age, I am old enough to make my own decisions... I think.

It has nothing to do with rules.. It ****es me off when I do something good and get scorned for it.

I ain't to sure anyone here understands really. What I mean is like, You TRY to do something good, but get in trouble for it.

I do not think it is right that I wash dishes, my brother don't, and I get into trouble for it. So I just don't do it anymore.

And get this, because I didn't wash them I got **** taken from me. No big deal for me anyway.

However, my brother NEVER listens, never has done ANYTHING my parents said.. and he sits on his ass all day doing whatever the **** he wants.

So I reckon I am going to start doing that. Until they show me they respect what I do, I won't do ****.

Unless you tell us your age, you're still a child in our eyes. It's all good saying you're old enough to make your own decisions, but kids say that all the time and they're dead wrong. Besides, it's doing the dishes, not moving out.

As for your brother, it depends on his age too. I have a couple younger siblings and I have to work more than them for obvious reasons. However, if he's a layabout that's older than you, then unfortuneately you've pulled a short straw.

 

[tjbyrum1]

I am 17 years old, planning to go into college. Pretty old enough to know whats right and whats not. I am usually respectful and try follow the golden rule, and strictly obey it.

My brother is a year younger than I am.

 

[El Mosqueton]

You're a whiney little bitch who needs to man up and do what your parents say.

 

[Skotekal]

Yeah, and I get yelled at for ****, but do you know what I do? I ****ing do it. My brother does nothing around the house, so what? Just do what you are told. Helps along the way. Besides, if you do it, maybe they will, you know, stop ****ing yelling at you?

I remember when my dad smacked me in grade 4 for being an asshole. Yeah, I deserved it, and it was discipline. But guess what? I ended up in a foster home for awhile. Absolutely ridiculous. If I EVER meet that social worker who took me away, I swear to God, I'll beat his ****ing face into the ground.

So just listen to your parents. Think of it as prepping up for when you move out. Don't try to be a rebel all the time. It won't get you anywhere. Just listen and do what you are told.

EDIT: I just realized that the F word has probably been pounded far too deeply into my vocabulary.

 

[tjbyrum1]

Never mind, you guys just don't seem to be able to grasp what I am trying to say here.

I use to do as I was told, always. I was a pure and noble person, always doing as I was told, never taking money, never stealing, never backtalking, never doing anything. I ALWAYS did the right thing, ALWAYS.

But then I guess that image I made for myself built up over the years. I guess now everyone thinks I am the one for that job since I done it before, and now they look to ONLY me for it.

I WILL start doing stuff and being more respectful when I see that other people do stuff. It just makes me mad how I am the only one who does - and gets yelled at for it.

Weird, I built such a good image for myself as a kid (I was a pussy long time back), now it reflects. Being good has consequences.

 

[FEMGAM]

Then it's your own fault set the bar low and no one asks anything from you if its so hard being a good person.

 

[cheezMcNASTY]

no, we understand perfectly. you're the one who refuses to understand what has been said UNANIMOUSLY.
you do what you're told until you move out, and when you're older you can decide retrospectively. that's the only fair way to judge something anyway.

is that ironic?

 

[onwingsoflead]

Dude, quit complaining and just do it ffs. Since we are all sharing stories, why not I.

My mom and step-dad moved to the USA for over 2 years, and I didn't want to go with them because I wanted to stay here in Australia and finish school and stuff, because if I went it would have been hard.
So anyways I moved in with my dad and his Asian mail order bride (I ****ing hate her) and she was always a total bitch to me, no matter what I did. I would always do exactly what she said and always helped around the house, I had a part-time job and did well in school, yet she still always complained that I need to find a better job and so on. So when I finally finished school I got a normal full-time job in retail, and yet that still wasn't enough for her, and she still bitched and complained. I finally told her to go **** herself and I moved out.

Think about what you have, your parents raised you, and they provide you with everything you need and put a roof over your head. So stop complaining and being selfish, because you seem to be taking what you have for granted. It's a tough world out there, and maybe they are just trying to toughen you up so you're ready to stand on your own two feet.

Uhm, I partially agree with most people here, but also tjbyrum1 himself.
Here I present the case one more time:
There is a mother and a father. They let kid A do everything, and let kid B do whatever he wants.
Kid A gets yelled at for not doing stuff, while he does actually do it.
Kid B doens't get yelled at, for not doing stuff, but he's the not not doing anything.

Yes, I agree he still lives with his parents, and therefore should listen to his superiors, without complaining.
Yet, I think the overall situation is totally unfair, smacking him in the face. What about his brother? He's also old enough to do the same stuff, yet he doesn't, and in return, they seem to treat him with even more respect than tjbyrum1.
Toatell unfairness, I taell ye. -_-''

 

[Skotekal]

You are forgetting that things always seem unfair from the eyes of the teller. How is it unfair? They raised his ass, do what they say. It is the least he can damn well do.

Alright, maybe he is not telling us every detail to the situation, that way I may have read an incomplete truth.
But the unfair part is - according to what he told us - where they make him do everything, and yell at him for not doing it, IN COMBINATION WITH the fact that his brother DOESN'T do anything. AND doesn't get yelled at, for it.

I think that, as a parent, you should treat all children (of about the same age, of course) equally. They should both have to do all that stuff. And both get the same amount of respect for it. It is not the case here. As soon as that part is fixed, he should stop complaining.


Still, though, I'm not sure we have all the factors, so this may of course be based on a false truth.
But that's not my fault.

 

[SelfAppointedGunslinger]

Kids never do get treated equally, sometimes a lot of it depends on age. For example Me being the oldest in My family, I was expected to help My Dad with the house extension. This I did everytime I was asked, even when It meant climbing to the roof of the house to lay tiles down or help install a gutter (and I'm not keen on heights but I still did it.) However My younger siblings never had to lift a finger as far as DIY was concerned, did I complain? NO. I got on with it, it wasn't going to kill Me so there was no need to complain.

Age matters indeed, and apparently, tjbyrum1 and brother differ 1 year, so the difference in treatment should not be that great.
And yes, siblings never get treated exactly even. But from what I have read, it seems that the balance in their family is greatly distorted. Oh well, I'm done defending. I think I made myself clear. ^^
