soo unfair!!!!
The title pretty much sais it all. I have 2 sisters which makes 3 kids in the family. I am the middle kid btw. But they always get special treatment. Like my older sister for example, yesterday she slapped and kicked and practically pushed me down the stairs, and I GOT IN TROUBLE FOR IT! Then just a few minutes ago, i was walking through our gameroom, and she is on the phone. She starts yelling and screaming at me to leave, then my dad (who used to be in the army, and has a VERY bad temper) starts screaming at me for walking through the gameroom! It was ridiculous. Then he turns to her and goes, please don't yell anymore okay? In like the nicest tone. Then I am always getting my ipod and cell phone taken away, WHICH I BOUGHT WITH MY OWN MONEY! When i do something so minor, no other parent would punish for it. When she just get a little itty bitty "just don't do it again.", with something sooo big! Then with my little sister, she is such a little spoiled brat, whenever i get something that she wants, she screams and cries until she gets it. Then, she starts bawling about how nobody ever cares about her, so my mom goes and hugs and cuddles her and waits on her hand and foot! My grandmother/aunt/uncle/friends/cousins have all told me that i am the peace keeper, and the one who will turn out the best, because i don't need to have all of that attention. But i think every one needs some every once and a while. Its not fair at all, i get treated so unequaly around here. Just because my older sister will be out of the house in a few years, and my little sister will be entering middle school in a few years, and how she is growing up. What does that leave for me? And, my little sister is involved with this competitive dance company thing so my mom is revolved around that 24/7. Then my older sister has dance and soccer a lot. So i have to walk home from school in the freezing cold which is about 2 miles, while they are going to some silly dance classes, and getting fast food they don't even need. Plus, it totally doesn't help that when i get like a 88 on a paper, my dad is all i'm just gonna bash your head into the wall. (which he never has) but it really starts to freak me out sometimes. Please tell me what you think i should do about this. But don't say like talk to them about how you feel, because that only fixes things for a couple of hours. I just can't take this anymore, especially right now. I have just had the WORST day you couldn't even imagine.

Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Families?
i somtimes have that problem though i am the oldest
anyways, it does happen and it is hard to deal with it
i would suggest that sometimes just ignore the stupid senerios and forget about them
dont hold a grudge cause soon you might need something from your sisters and you want them to help you then
also try your best not to get in those situations (this is super hard)
talk to friends about it
join clubs or find some other way to occupy your time
thats all i can think about, i know its not fair but it does happen and you have to deal with it somehow
easier said than done

Its so sad how middle children get the short end of the stick...i say the best thing you could do is avoid the situation. Like just avoid everything. And know that your other family is probably right. You will probably turn out to be the best. If they are spoiled it will get them no where in life, so i say dream big and shoot high..you will get really far!!! i know cliche' but its true. I mean come on whats the best part of an oreo?? the middle!!! whats the best part of a pb and j?? the middle!!! you may not always see the middle so well, but it always winds up being the favorite part!!

Well, if talking to them doesn't solve it then I don't know what else you can do other than try to avoid confrontation.
You are in a sucky situation. You have the oldest child and the baby, and you stuck in the middle of all that.
Seriously, what I would do is talk to them. If it only fixes it for a couple hours, talk to them about it every couple hours until they get it pounded into their heads that you are one of their kids too, you deserve the same treatment as the rest because they are not better than you.
Also, take pride in the fact that you will turn out to be just like your family members say. Grandmas know what they are talking about. They've seen many kids grow up around them- their own, their grandkids, their nieces, their nephews, and other kids around them.
I know that doesn't help you now, but at least you won't go into the world expecting everything to be handed to you. You know what you have to work for in this life, so you'll do just fine.
But it's truly sad, though. You shouldn't have to work for your parents' attention, love, and affection.
Hang in there, kid.
