Parents want me to have more self confidence but they are not helping
So I know that my parents love me and want the best for me. So ya Im not the best person, but I try. When I do bad in college classes my dad says its my fault, not because its hard for me, "I'm just lazy" he says. My room is semi messy and my dad keeps saying that I will end up like these lonely isolated people we know. I have picked up housework but he still does not acknowledge it. Of course my brother is perfect smart, party dude... He always compares me to him. It really does not help for my self confidence. Sorry just venting. What can I do? I can't talk to him because he sees himself as perfect.

Being who I am I would tell my father to go shove it and cuss him out but that is bad advice. I would not talk to him about it because I would not be able to keep my temper under control. I am hot headed. What you should do is ignore it if u dont want to talk to him or your mom about it. I ignore my parents when they become annoing. Try to talk with your dad.

I hear where you are coming from my parents are the same way...As I am the rebel in the family.
Tell your parents that you need to talk to them, Make sure they know it is important and you don't want interuptions. Sometimes parents need a reminder that us kids are not perfect and we do make mistakes just like everyone eles. They need to know that you and your brother are two different people with different personalities. However, I will suggest trying to keep your room clean as not only will it make you feel better but possibly more confident as well. If he doesn't acknowledge that you pick up the house then maybe remind him say "Hey Dad, I picked up so and so for you I'm going to go do blah blah let me know if you need anything" etc. Remember we are not all perfect and sometimes Mom and Dad need a reminder.
