Answer #1

You need to talk to them. At a time when their both not busy. Make sure you tell them earlier in the day that you would like to speak to them later etc. Explain everything without getting angry. That will just make them think you are immature. As for the friend situation. Join an activity you like, or try and talk to people in school. X

Answer #2

Answer #4

Your parents love u, of that you can probably be sure. When you say animals, what do you mean? Are they breeders? Or, do you just have pets that they dote on? Sounds to me that you really need to sit down with both of them and tell them exactly what you have told us here. you feel as if they care more about their animals than they do about u, and that can hurt a lot. Tell them that you are still their little girl no matter how old you are and that you still need their attention and affection. I think if you tell them how you feel they will realize what they have been doing and hopefully take what you say to heart. I’m sorry you have to feel this way, its not easy to think that an animal is more important than you are. I remember going through the same exact thing when I was young, wondering why our dog was more important than me. you do have to remember that animals are helpless to a certain degree…they need to be feed, and watered, bathed, let outside to potty and they need and desire attention as much as any human out there. That said, this should never become the focus of your parents life because you are still there child and you still need their attention also! Good luck sweetheart! [•:

Answer #5

When they tell you to “stop trying to get attention” tell them straight out that that is EXACTLY WHAT you WANT! And that you want if from THEM!! It is so very hard to go through something like this, I know. Do you help with the feeding of the animals and that it requires? If so. That would be a good time to talk to your Mom. Be blunt and too the point! But start off the conversation with something like,,,”Mom, I’m really not trying to start a fight with u, but this is how I feel…” Don’t attack her, ask her. And tell her how you feel, and ask her to explain why this has happened. Use lots of “I” statementes,,,”I feel this way when u…” Or. “When you pay more attention to the animals it makes me feel…”. Attacking her when talking will only get her on the defensive, and less likely to want to talk at all, and that will be where the attitude comes in.
