it's a mistake many moms make, comparing the younger sibling to the older one. i know exactly what it feels like. my older sister goes to an ivy league college and has just gotten into one of the best medical schools in the country. you can just IMAGINE how much my mom wants me to be like her!!!! except i never will be, because i'm stupid. anyways explain to your mom nicely that you are your own person and nobody can force you to be someone else. nobody except you can control who you are. plus constant comparing makes you feel like a bad person, and that's definitely not what a mom should be aiming for. on the other hand, try doing better in school, stop getting in trouble so much, and maybe cut down on eating habits... but make sure your mom understands that she hurts you feelings and totally ANNOYS you whenever she compares you to your sister. tell her that you'll try to become a better person, just for her to PLEASE stop comparing you. you have better traits and can do better things than your sister too. good luck!! :)
