My mom always acts like my little sister is her favorite. We are 5 years apart. Me and my brother like to gang up on her, so I am thankful for him because he's the only one I had to talk to him about this. Anyway, whenever me and my brother tell her that this is how we feel she is treating us, she's tells up to shutup, she is really harsh and mean to me & my brother, but not much to my sister. I think she likes my sister the most because she's the youngest, and I am the oldest. My sister is a HUGE brat, but when she acts like one, my mom thinks its cute! IT IS SOOOOO ANNOYING ALREADY! My mom always says ''i love u all the same'' , but in order for me to believe that I need her to show it. I can't tell her that because she'll tell me something like to shutup.
Thank U! =D

Hey hun,
I went through this for the longest time. I thought my mama liked my sis more because she was the oldest. And my brother more because he was her only "lil boy". What finally helped me was having a one on one talk with my mama. Just me and her. Nobody around to but in, or cut me off. And telling her how I felt. I think you should try that with your mom. Either wait until she's alone or ask her if she could set aside a little time to talk privately with you. Then when you are alone tell her how you feel. Be very mature about it. If you sound whiney or fussy or like your complaining she's not going to completely understand how you feel. Tell her how it hurts your feelings when you are trying to tell her something about the way you feel and your being told to shut up. Tell her if you feel like you are ever left out. But hun, your sis is the youngest. So she may need a little more attention than you do right now. So tell your mom that you understand that, but you would also like a little extra attention from time to time. Even if its just going for a walk around the block so you will have time to talk alone. Or maybe going to the mall or to a movie together. That way you can have a little "Mother, Daughter Time" But what I think is most important is to remember to show your mom how much you love her all of the time. Even if its only a hug in the middle of the day, letting her know you love and appreciate her. I have one question. How old are you and your siblings? I hope this helps you hun. I would LOVE to hear back from you soon. <3

How is your mother "harsh and mean"? Please give examples.

(P.S. My mother always loved me best because I was the oldest and smartest of us four kids. Or at least, that is what I believed when I was growing up. Now she's in her 80s. When I call her and say, "Hi, this is your eldest and smartest child calling," she always knows which child I am.)

I know how you feel. There are two of us, my sister being the youngest. I am her brother. Growing up, I bought different girls home to meet my family and our parents did not accept any of them. They did, however, accept the first guy my sister bought home. They have now been married 14 years. When dad died in 2004, her and my brother in law got his fishing boat and my uncle got his van and car. Mom informed me the other day that when our uncle dies, my sister and husband will also get the van, the car and the other fishing boat, as well as the house, which was theirs before they bought another one. My sister has even noticed mom favors her oldest boy, age 14 and the only girl, age 8 out of her 4 kids. A couple years ago, the entire family... my sister, her husband, their 4 kids, mom and uncle took a trip to visit my aunt and uncle in Oklahoma. I was not invited. They have taken shorter trips since then... again, I was left out. I confronted mom about it when they got back, and she just blew it off. When she tried to give me some souvenirs they got me, I refused to accept them.
