I live with my parents and im grateful for the care they give me. But there are times where they make me loose my mind! I live with my dad and my step mom. Compared to my step mom, im threated like crap! My dad cooks for her everynight. When shes sleep, I have to be as quite as falling cotton balls, but when I sleep, my dad and step mom laugh, talk loud, and watch TV at full volume. Then every Tuesday and Wednesday they hangout allllllll day. And when I ask to hangout on other days of the week they say they are tired. My dad once said, "Shes 50% of me and so are you," compared to her im like "90 to 10!" I feel so misthreated, does anyone have any advice? Please help!

You really just need to explain to them how you feel. Tell them you feel like you are being treated unfairly. Ask them to make a certain day of the week a day for you and them to hangout. Point out that when you are asleep they are noisy, and when they are asleep you are forced to be quiet. Unless of course its 2 pm, and you are still asleep. Talking to them is the only way this can really be solved.

Thank you, the problem is: I already talked to them, they jus' where like "whatever." There are many more things I talked to them about, I made a list and confronted them, they just came up with ways to prove me wrong. For example: the cooking thing: my step mom said "I had to BEG your dad to cook for me." To me, thats a pile of bolonga!

WOW, i feel the same way with my mother. My parents just split, I dont get to see my dad much, and she has a new boyfriend all of a sudden. All of her time is dedicated to him, getting ready to look good for him, or talking about him. I am at a critical point in my life, Choosing my future with college and courses. How to afford a vehicle to commute, etc and she just isn't here.
