Life at home.

[:Edzy]

I'm sixteen years of age and I'm gonna be hopefully joining an army college soon in harragate.

What I don't get is life at home atm. its been pretty good then before but I think its getting worse...

well this is what I mean, I have a brother of 10. he will always have a £5-£10 on him a day and I only get £2.50 or £3.50 a day if im lucky...

then If I wanna come downstairs and watch the footy, I start watching it then BAMN I have my little brother ''crying'' to my father to watch something else, he is totally a mummys boy because he is still hooked on the cbeebies/cbbc channels..

what else i dont get is i am treated as im a lodger, i have to eat the meals my brother picks or my stepmum cooks yet when its my turn to pick my little brother will get something better?

my stepmum basically treats me as just another kid whos moved in with my dad, but all her kids are treated golden and given everything they need.

i havent not much clothes but if i go into my brothers room (yes i have to sneak as i havent permission to go anywhere around the house, yet my brother is) he has two wardrobes full.

the other day i asked my dad if he can go buy me a pair of nike trainers, he took my stepmum with him and come back with my brothers trainers and not mine, they was the ones i wanted but in his size, he later said he needed them more yet he has wot 5 pairs...

wot else i dont get is he has his own larger room then i do and yet he doesnt use it as he sleeps in the same room as hes mum? its pathetic and at night hes always like ''nite dad, nite dad nite dad'' keeping whole house up nd dont get in trouble.

den my stepmum is now keeping me away from the dog, ive tried to stop them beating the dog but everyone except me always hits the dog, kicks him and spits on it and its disgusting, now there getting rid of it cause i threatend to report them and im really gonna miss him.

look, just help. how can i change my dads opinion on my stepmum (his wife) all i want is a better homelife not this life where im the lodger and all them are the rich family i work for... also my stepmum got my 2 sisters and brother (werent her kids) thrown out only because they come in late and she didnt like them.. she ***** us of all the time and trys to act all big when her friends are round, if she was a boy i would have already lamped her already.

help me! shes trying to get rid of me now. also she keeps saying when my lads knock shes gonna tell them stuff that i dont do, what is like playground stuff? i dont get this life, its basically like living in a school playground just i cant have the ****sturring ****.

if i was in that situation, i would be a *******.

i'd try to be as annoying to your stepmum as possible and mess her life up by chucking out her belongings when she leaves them around etc. but i'm sure its not the right thing to do. You should talk to your dad about her. I have a freind who is in the same situation, she just ignores it but its not solved.

i dunno how to help you because it's not against the law or anything (apart from the dog part)
i'd call childline because i think they could help.

Hmmm.. my research shows that most people who have hard life at home go to the Army

Obviously, your life atm is problem after problem, if you're parents and brother aren't going to change, you change. I don't mean change who you are but if they are continously going to moan at you, take it on the chin, just, as alkaz said, compliment what is cooked, compliment your step-mum, saying she looks nice today or something. Is there anything you can talk to your dad about? Or even a friend? You could plan to get your friend round, because, i'm sure your mum would act differently when you have a friend round, and there's not much she can do if you have one round is there? Also, as you're the older one, you're treated as the one 'who can look after yourself more'. In my house, that's completely the opposite (LOL) but yeah.. hope this helped . I also don't think it's your brother's fault, he's just spoilt and likes it like that, so won't change

Good luck in the army, if you get to front line, blow up an affganny and pretend it's your step-mum/brother hehe .

do stuff to annoy her

Report them about the dog anyways dont 'threaten' then.
Dont worry about your lil brother, hes little of course he'll get everything he wants. Stuff your dad right now, he obviously is turning a blind eye to neglect so you cant be worrying or talking to him. Talk to your sister and brothers, ask for advice from them and see if they have room for you till you can get your own place. Talk to Hostel's and go an stay in one, they will hold you for a while. Its not hard, if you really dont like it then talk to the council, go to a hostel and pack your stuff and tell your parents to **** off.

Try and wind up your step mother but be sneaky about it.. as for the dog report it because its well tight.

She has no right to tell you what to do as she isn't your real mum
