Now I know why my mom dosent like me like my bother ... because im not a boy... it may seam funny to you but I ges in a chinese family the boy gets all the love cause they carry out the family name, the honor. My grandfather said that to me because he said it was very noticeable .. he said "its like loving one child but wanting to kill the other". My mother would complain that the boys was spoil and would get all the attention and the girls didn't get anything, but she's doing to same thing(my grandfather said something like that to). Its messed up ... but its my life.. 

awww lil bit. i hope all goes well. talk to your mom and tell you how you feel. they do care about you. even if youcant see it or they dont show it. just mention that you want a little attention. pray about it.

Well Kickin, I can not speak about the Chinese culture since, well, I am caucasian but I do know a bit about being "left out" in a family.  If you drop me a PM I could discuss this a bit more but some questions I would be asking may be too personal for an internet forum board. 

To give you some insight, I was the middle child of 3 kids.  I had an older sister (the good child) and a younger brother (the rascal).  No matter what I did to try and please my parents, I couldn't and was told so.  It has even carried over to my family and my son.  My Mother told me and my wife that our son (her grandson) would never be a "favorite" grandson because we lived to far away.  My mother then went on to say that my sister's kids will always be "more special" since they were the first of the grandchildren. 

Parents can be as rude as any other person you meet in life.  The difference lies in that they are family and it hurts more coming from family.  If you think I may be of some help just let me know. 

Never good to be overlooked or under appreciated in your family.  My thoughts are with you, Kickin!
