Okay.....why? What possible reason does your mother have for doing that? Bored sadist? Tough love approach? Resentment? I'm sorry Op, that's pretty petty of your mommy dearest. :p Don't fight fire with fire though, show them you know and that you're better than that.

29- Some parents just don't realize the emotional consequences of things like that. I feel that a lot of parents think they're being "cool" by acting like immature teenagers. My mom used to be pretty bad with emotional attacks; she didn't get the message until I decided to move in with my dad. I agree with you though, fighting fire with fire isn't usually the best option. Try killing them with kindness first.

Chill out! Haven't you got homework to be getting on with?

Exactly my thoughts, this comment is ridiculous for any age but especially a for 13 year old.

is your brother older or younger than you? and by how much? while I don't believe parents should get in the middle of sibling rivalry, if you're older and always picking on him, then I can't say I feel sorry for you. but if you never do anything to him, then your mom is just a jerk. return the favor and hurt both of their feelings. Big girls don't cry, they get even.

We are twins...

I'm thinking you're a bully Op and she's helping your brother defend himself.

^ The age old cry of the oppressor? Maybe, not enough info to tell, unfortunately. :P

Even if OP is a bully, that's still a terrible approach to parenting. Just because one kid is an ass doesn't mean you should teach your other child to be one too.

Hm. I disagree, 57. Sure it's all subjective, but teaching your kid to stand up to a bully, sibling or otherwise, can hardly be chalked up to terrible parenting.

There is a difference between condoning being an ass to everyone, and promoting standing up for yourself. I can see everyone's opinion but I read it like 32. Like 49 said, there isn't enough info to tell :/.

68- As 78 said, there's a difference between standing up for yourself, and sinking to the same level as the bully. This parent is teaching the child to be annoying on purpose, which is different than standing up for yourself. By being annoying and provoking OP (assuming OP is actually a bully), he (the brother) is going to be bringing more trouble his way instead of resolving it.

It really does hurt when you're treated differently than your brothers/sisters. I speak from experience.

didaa_fml 7

Oh, believe me. I'm not a bully. I'm actually the exact opposite of a bully and he's my twinbrother, why would I ever bully my twin?

"**** you asshole" That's how you handle that one.

IrePandaPotterLe 8

That sucks OP. Just stay strong and ignore her until you can move out.Then never be there for your family when they ask you to do things.It's gonna take some time but they'll get what they deserve sooner or later. Unless your dad or anyone else in your family doesn't think like them and is willing to help you get revenge...make their life a living hell then *devilish laugh*

I have a shitty mother too, OP (and before everyone jumps on me, sure I love her but that doesn't change she's not mother material) but I promise, there's going to come a time when you no longer care nor let it get to you. Also, you should tell your brother he is a failure at the sibling torture; if he needs your mothers help to tease you, then he sucks at life!

Awh :( I hate my mother. She favors my sisters and thinks she's going to be involved in my daughters life when she's born. Some people shouldn't be mothers. It's rough having a bitch for a "mom".

Missusluv313 9

Sadly, I can totally relate. My "mother" favors her son. My sister and I don't even deal with her anymore. People would be surprised and shocked if they knew the things she has done to us. Parents should NEVER have a favorite child. That shit hurts like hell.

jem970 19

I am there with you. My sister is my mother AND one of my grandmothers favorites. It's extremely damaging. As soon as I am out I am cutting my mom out of my life.

113- I can relate: I've always been considered and treated as the mentally challenged failure of the family, despite being the first in my family line of men to have gone to and graduated from college, then becoming dual ticketed in my related field. I am currently working on expanding my education into the nursing field by having completed all my pre-recs in biology and such as well as signing up for correspondence courses in a few of the classes I can get out of the way now so I can continue working while going to school and raising my family. :p Having had enough of being berated with sneering jibes and compared to both my computer techie brother and wildly irresponsible, continent-jumping sister, I politely stood up for the way my wife, sons and myself were being treated and explained how this isn't acceptable nor fair. All that accomplished was now we're estranged, and my siblings blame me for being immature and too stupid to understand their lives, much less, my own. :p Sometimes, it's truly amazing how messed up some simple little family dynamics can make you well into adulthood. :p

I don't care if that is your mother: this calls for a **** punt. Or at least some really ****** up pranks.
