Dear None:
I don’t think you are “only joking and looking for attention.” I believe your pain is real and understandable. You wrote: “parents are saying that I am not worth a pennie” how can it not make any child (of any age) not “feel like a piece of crap.” After all, as children we look up to our parents, wanting nothing but for them to value us. And when a parent says you are “not worth a pennie”- that hurts a whole lot!
When your mother “sees me with tears i my eyes she says ‘Stop crying and go eat something'”- that is cruel of her. When she says that, in effect she is saying: don’t bother me; I have more important things in my day.
When she “is always complaining what a naive fool I am and how people use me being such”- she is hurting you. In fact so far in your sharing, your mother keeps hurting you and your sister follows in your mother’s footsteps, criticizing you the same way. Both are mistreating you, bullying you.
If your mother cared that you will not be mistreated by others, she should stop mistreating you herself.
How old are you? Did you think of moving out of your home, living away from your mother? Away from the people who mistreat you?
