Hello. I am a 14 year old girl. I absolutely hate my family, i cannot help it. They are terrible to me. No one has ever hurt me except my sister and all she does is slap me but...i dont know they act like im the worst thing that has ever happened to them and i ruined their life. I have a mom and dad who think everything i say is retarded and that im stupid and i should be more like my sister. She is 17 and shes terrible. She smokes, she drinks, she drives while under the influence and she is going to hurt someone, maybe even herself. She does acid and everything and even though she always yells at me and slaps me im worried about her i mean she is my older sister. and my parents don't know and i tried to tell them but they don't believe me and they call me a liar and i am scared and i don't know what to do. What can i do to make my parents not hate me? How can i help my sister, because i cant talk to her? I do not want to go into foster care for my sister could hurt herself. HELP!
Tell them everything you just told us: about your sister's problems and how you feel like they do not care about you.
If they do not take you seriously, I would call the police or something about your sister. She is endangering her own life, and more importantly the lives of other people. She could end up killing someone when she drinks and drives.

and why do your parents think youre so stupid? do you get bad grades? act really stupid around them, just having fun? well whatever it is, prove to them they should trust you.
and if you know where you sister hides her drugs/alcohol, show it to your parents or someone you trust, and/or get a picture of your sister in the act.
and if youre worried she might get into a car accident.. this sounds stupid but try hiding her keys so she cant drive.
i dont know if i helped much or at all buti tryed. good luck ;] [ barneyrocks's advice column | Ask barneyrocks A Question ]
