Have you ever been compared to someone
That you absolutely do not like
Because they have ruined someone you love's life?
Well that's exactly what my parents did a few days ago
This person they compared me to is my aunt
She drinks like crazy
And she didn't even help her kids grow up
When they were little
They had to dress themselves
They forced their kids to play football and baseball
Even when their passion was music
And when that kid finally got them to stop forcing them
They gave the kid a hard time
What parent does that?
They made both of my older cousin's lives hard
I hunk they even ruined them
Well really I don't think she was the biggest part in this
My uncle was
My uncle was the one
Who got my aunt to be like this in the first place
He made her start drinking
For goodness sake I think the only reason
He married her is because he got her pregnant!
Ugh!
I really, really dislike him
I wouldn't go so far as hate
I mean I don't even really dislike him
Because I mean he's my uncle
And I don't really dislike my aunt
I honestly love both of them
But I hate their choices
The choices they have made
Have hurt not only them
But their children
I'm really disappointed in them
As for my older cousins
I don't even really think of one of them as older
I think of him as younger
Because I've always felt like I have to watch out for him
The older brother has his facts straightened out a lot more than the younger brother
The younger brother
I'm afraid
Is going to end up like his parents
And I'm terrified of that
No matter how many promises he makes with me not to
I think he still will
And I hate it
So bad to the reason I started writing this
My parents compared me to my aunt
And it's been my goal to not be like her
Since I was in 5th grade
And they think they have the right to say that to me????!!!
They don't
And I know they can't read my mind
But how dare they?
I want to be nothing like my aunt when I'm older
They say that I act just like she did when I was her age
They said that I have this rebel way of acting
And I'm even been going through this thing
Where I hate the way I think
I hate that I think it's okay to do things now
When they really aren't and I know it
But peer pressure has gotten to me
And I've been trying so hard
But they just say these things about it
And me being the stubborn person I am
Can't change like I want to
Because I can't change on their behalf!
