Does my father hate me?
For as long as i can remember my dad has always expected more out of me than the rest of my siblings and there is 12 of us all together. We all lived under the same roof until the older ones moved out. Im pretty close to being the middle child being number 5 but my dad has always been harder on me than anyone else. Im not a bad kid, i got good grades in high school and i received a good deal of scholarships for the university im attending this fall but for some reason he never gives me any breaks. Its like he hates me or something because he always gives me extra chores and makes sure they are done thoroughly while he lets everyone else slack off. I know i have developed an excellent work ethic from this but its frustrating to be the one receiving all this pressure. I am also the only one of his children who can keep up with him intellectually (he's a highly educated minister and is about to complete his dissertation for his doctorate this year) but it still seems like i can never be good enough for him. Dont get me wrong, im DEFINITELY not living to please him but it just gets annoying and aggravating sometimes!!! It makes me want to leave for school even more and never come back. Please can someone shed some light on the situation. Maybe you do the same to your kid or it was done to you just elaborate a little on the cirstance.
