I Feel Like I’m Being Passed Around Instead of Prioritized
I just want to vent because I feel like my mom is being unfair to me. My parents have been separated for a long time, and they both already have their own families now. I live with my dad’s side of the family. Since the school year is about to start, I’ve been telling my dad that I still lack a lot of school supplies. But now he’s passing the responsibility to my mom because, according to him, I’m living with him already and he’s the one providing food for me.
So I reached out to my mom, but she asked why I wasn’t asking my dad instead. It just feels unfair because I never wanted this kind of situation in the first place. I also messaged my half-brother from my mom’s side to ask where my mom was because she kept leaving my messages on seen. I was messaging her because school is about to start and I still haven’t bought many of the things I need, and I don’t even have a school uniform top yet.
Then my brother told me that my mom was there with them and had even accompanied them to buy school supplies. That really hurt me because it made me feel like it was unfair since I’m her child too. Or maybe I’m just overreacting.
