I wish my parents would stop comparing me to my two older brothers. They treat me like I'm either going to be very lazy one day, or just up and run away or become a convict or something. It really pisses me off. They expect too highly of me because, I get high grades, I don't run away (despite that I've wanted to many upon times), I'm not a lazy @$$, and I don't get all pissy when they tell me no. They don't know that all the high expectations of me are ruining me. I'm trying to live up to those expectations, but when I don't they're like " You could do a lot better. We all know you can." or " Do you want to stay in Honor Society? I thought so, you need to do a lot better to achieve that goal" It just pisses me off so much. They expect me to turn out the same as my lazy brother or close to juvenile brother......
