I'm the middle child and the only girl. My older brother is 17 and my baby brother is 13.
My mother is very passive aggressive, to the point that sometimes it becomes aggravating as hell! Sometimes this gets so irritating that me and my siblings often tell her off when she is in one of her yelling moments. When my brothers tell her off, and she gets upset, they apologize and she just accepts their apology like it was nothing. My little brother even cursed her out, and he got away with it. Yet, happened to respond back to her, in a way that I tried to do that showed some respect, and she immediately claimed I was disrespectful, cursed me out, and then grounded me for ages!
She yells and swears at me all the time, and talks about me to my brothers in front of my face. She is always criticizing me in front of them, and spends hours on end, slandering my character in front of them when I am not around. I know this because they tell me that she does it all the time.
Also, she likes to buy my brothers expensive things. Clothes, shoes, accessories. You name it, she buys it, no matter how expensive. When it comes to me wanting expensive things, she gets a HUGE attitude. "You are selfish and ungrateful!" If I do wind up getting what I wanted, which is rarely, then I don't get anything else for a while. Most of the time, I just settle for less.
A last example. I'm the one that NEVER gets to do anything. I never get to go anywhere or do anything, and if I ask, then it's a problem. Yet, I'm the one with the straight A's, that tries to be the most helpful, and works. My older brother doesn't work and makes okay grades, and is allowed to hang out as long as he wants with his friends, no matter what day it is. He comes home LATE. And my little brother makes the most horrible grades in existence. I mean, at one point, he had an F in EVERY single class. She never grounded him, and he was allowed to hang out all the time.
Why is she like this? She's really pushing me away. At this point, I can't WAIT until I can get out, so I don't have to EVER come back!
