Question

I'm a middle child,and i feel neglected,there always making me do things for them.I feel like,well i am the black sheep of my family.when i speak no one cares or pays attention to me.Im always ignored.i get the least amount of things.my older sister takes over my things,and my little brother gets all the attention.i feel so different,i dnt believe the same things they do[like religion],and i have my own style.im just always alone.Any ever feel this or knows someone who has this problem?

Answer 1

I'm a middle child as well. I like it. You get a taste of both lives--younger sister and older sister. You can be the baby and the grown up. Try thinking positive. You may feel alone because you're so unique. That's FINE. Talk to your parents and see what they can do. Tell them how you feel.

Hope this helped :] good luck!

Answer 2

I know exactly how you feel.  I am the middle child, have two older sisters and two younger sisters.  I have always been the black sheep of the family.  I don't think it is a curse, but just the way life goes.  Be like me, hold your chin up and don't feel belitted by your siblings, you are just as good if not better than they are!!!!!

Answer 3

That's how it is in my family. I'm the oldest and I have two little brothers. The middle one never gets any attention. My youngest brother is spoiled sometimes, too, which makes it worse.

But you have a family who does love you (despite what you may think) and you should be grateful that you at least have that.

honey i felt the same way growing up my sis was goody two shoes with good grades and my brother was the baby and only boy I always felt like the c**p in the middle..you have to just remind yourself that you are unique and special in your own way Try to talk to your parents about how you feel it may help it may not...don;t think of it as a curse but an obstacle that will make you stronger in the end!
