I had a fight with my parents, with my father calling me a failed child. I dont care if it was not what he think but the fact that’s what came out from his mouth just confirmed everything.
You know i was a child that is the go-to for my parents. Whenever they have chores to do i will be the one doing it. For 4 years until one day my mom said I didn’t do anything. Can you imagine? You do ALL the things but your mom says you’re not doing it. I stopped doing it because I can’t lie to my feelings. That I was hurt. That I wasn’t being appreciated for. You see i have 4 siblings. I’m the second child. Is that it? Is that the reason? My sister was loved because she’s the first one arrived. My younger sister was loved because she’s good at everything. My younger brother was loved because he’s the only boy. My parents thought they love me. When in fact the person feeling it know the truth.
Is my feelings of sadness, lonely, and feeling of being looked over as a child valid?

I have been in a similar situation. The only way out is to let go of your negative feelings and just keep a distance from them. Let them only approach you when they need anything. When you stop reaching out to them they will automatically realize your pain
