is my parents constantly making fun of me and always on my sisters side considered neglectful?
My family likes to make fun of my appearance a lot, especially since I look different or I change my looks from what I actually look like. For example, I wear makeup, dyed my hair red, have a nose and fake eyebrow piercing, and thinned my eyebrows significantly. I wouldn’t say I’m alt I just like to try new styles. And honestly, at least in mine and a lot of others opinions, I have glown up a lot and I guess I look more conventionally attractive.
Furthermore, for my parents and my older sister (25) constantly make fun of me for my very thin eyebrows and red hair. My sister likes to brag all the time about how she dyes her friends hairs and does their eyebrows and how she learned how to grill and how she parallel parks her friends cars. Basically, everytime she comes home she likes to tell my parents all the tasks she does and she genuinely sometimes acts and talks like she’s 5 years old and complains how ”no one asks for her ID anymore”. Anyways even if she does something rude or wrong, bcs she’s in college my parents like baby her and even forget what she’s done, yet they yell at me daily over simple things.
So today, while we were in the car my mom shows me this lady who is making her eyebrows thicker and saying how people desire thick eyebrows not thin and she said how my eyebrow lady is going to ask “where my eyebrows are” and lecture me. And I gave her a very straight answer that if she lectures I will say something back because honestly I’m fucking exhausted. Then we talk so much and sister looks at my eyebrows and says where are you eyebrows and like makes fun of how thin they are. Then I said well maybe you need to get rid of some eyebrow hairs because clearly you have a bunch (Ik it was mean but she had been making fun of me the whole week and honestly all i felt like doing was punching her in the face so that was the better alternative).
My parents also act like Im jealous of my sister all the time when I bring up the treatment she gets versus I do. For example, when I was a kid I had a very abusive nanny yet my sister would enable this. My sister would hear her make r3pe jokes about me and see the nanny hit me yet they would both laugh at me (my sister never got in trouble btw bcs apparnely she’s my “second“ mom) and even when I bring it up anymore, my mom says ”oh she was a kid. she made mistakes“. Btw almost an adult and the exact same age I was btw but I forgot I get yelled at daily!!!
There was also a stage and unfortunately sometimes it still happens where I would sh almost daily and everyone would make fun of me and even ask if I wanted something sharper to do it with. But my parents buy me stuff a lot, so I feel guilty complaining about them because my mom says she does all of this out of love. Idk:(
