But it seems that I've been doing almost all the work, and no one seems to appreciate it. I'm sick of my little brother taking his diaper off constantly -- he's running through a whole package of diapers in the matter of two to three days because of it.
And, although my birthday would be really fun and I'd be extremely excited for it, the only reason I'm even slightly excited for it is because ny brother is taking that day off. But I'm obviously not going to get anything for my birthday, because my parents, upon saying that there were two birthdays that week, asked, "whose birthday is that?" In a serious, non joking way.
So they don't care at all. Even if they did, I still wouldn't get anything, simply because not only is my step-father's birthday in the same week, but his and my mother's wedding anniversary is as well. They won't even be bothered to buy me anything on their trips to the grocery store with my own money because they want to "quickly go and get back home." Then it turns out that they took several hours to get everything, and bought a whole ton of junk food for themselves.
You shouldn't hide your feelings away I understand it can be hard however if you feel sad don't force yourself to put on a smile as sometimes it might make yourself more stressed hiding it than it will showing it and I know it may feel like your not appreciated but you are even when you doubt it believe me you are because your wonderful and fantastic in every way possible and appreciation is really the very least you deserve and I'm proud of you for always trying so hard you deserve the world for your efforts truly and your a brilliant sister for putting up with your brother and trying to help him as I understand it may seem annoying at times however don't give up because he still needs and loves you and he does appreciate your efforts to help him and as for your birthday I'm sure they will remember its just that week seems a little busy but they will remember and even if you don't get anything I'm sure you will get a few gifts here on cs because we care about you as a community and we love you no matter what happens so don't give up because you deserve to have a wonderful and fantastic birthday as for the shopping I'm sorry they are like this perhaps next time when they go you could go with them and treat yourself to everything you wanted and if they complain just tell them its your own money and you can spend it how you want to and spoil yourself rotten because someone as wonderful and fantastic as you deserves to be treated and always will and perhaps if you would like you could always pm me if you would like to talk however try to remember that you are and always will be loved here no matter what
