Why parents are like this?
Am the elder child 24F , I have 19F sister and 16M brother
Context is my mom said " as soon as he is done with 10th exam I will put him in gym, guitar or violin class" I said to her you guys never said same for me or my sister then they started listing classes they put us in and the list is 1) abacus 2) drawing 3) french class 4) dance 5) karate ( school)...now all this is academic except dance...french class as I was in 12th and took french as subject and i realised my other classmates have already learned french from 8th grade so there's no way I can score better soni changed subject and hence left the class
Karate classes were stopped as I got my teeth broken and kick in my chest so my mom got scared and stopped my karate even though I didn't said her to stop
When I said to my parent " uh guys never thought same for me " my dad said " uh left french and all...I stated the above reasons and in end he said " nothing came out of whatever uh learned" and i was stuck there
Let's go back to my childhood...I wanted to go to a specific dance class which is in east and we lived in west...but I was not sent there as no one was there to take me to class..so I kept going to local classes in west which honestly did nothing for improvement or giving chances to learn and perform better
Whereas for my brother his cricket coaching is 3x times far but a rickshaw was arranged for him, and later scooty purchased so dad can drop him and pick him up
My dance class fees was 800-1000 which was heavy for them i understand where as my brother cricket admission was 10k + 10k kit + travelling stuff...given in minutes...fair enough I didn't said anything tbh I love my brother but this different behaviour of parents always did hurt me
All classes that I was put into were for academic reasons and according to my parents convience
Where as all classes my brother was put into was according to my brother's interest despite of parents convience
According to my dad " I did nothing with whatever i learned" bruh I just went for 1 year of good dance class as16 year old..I did so good ..they waved off my fees and let me learn for free and I did assist choreographies there...I opened my own at home dance classes for kids..earned from 17...taught in dance academy and at home
Choreographed sangeet, school function all on personal networking
I use to go to gym and I run a personal training partime job of my own
While am.purusimg my studies....
My brother on other dance left his dance half way, left football half way, left drawing half way,cricket he was made to stop coz of his 10th
The thing is the way they are showing enthusiasm that ohhh once you do your 10th let's do guitar let's do this
That's is something I feel hurt abt...for me and my sister my parents were 10th is done... learn cooking more ( we already do house chores since 7th -8tu std..full...chores)
Learn some computer course.. everything that we were told to.learn about was academic and not of enjoyment except dance...both me and my sister always use to beg for dance classes and all.. literally beg..every semester results if we use to score less than 80-90 we were blackmailed with dance class
So i never let my parents blackmail my brother with cricket or any stuff he likes..I always adviced them that this should not be weighed like that....
Yarr WTF like my parents are good...support us in dance but selectively.. etc...why they just can't accept that yes there behaviour is different for us and him why???? Everytime I point out stuff...my dad or mom says something extremely hurtful to us and never admit there stuff..I don't wanna die without hearing them apologize for their partial behaviour because trust me I hated my life post 10thh...I never went to fucking playground to play in evening coz I had to do cooker and diya bati and my friends play would be over by 8..it was so frustrating and alone shit..my sister got to play alot as she was rebellious one...me being elder i never rebelled and was always elder pleaser ahh
I don't know how to vent out this anger after my dad said " kya kiya it itna sikh ke" like bruh I started earning from 17..17.....when none of my friends earned...I never took freaking pocket money yarr never wtf
Summary:- partial behaviour of dad and mom towards sisters and brothers and how my childhood was ruined and can't be earned back whereas my parents refuse to accept this partial behaviour
