My mom needs so much help but never bothers to check wether I need help. I’m 12 and I have a lot of siblings. I’m the second oldest but my older sister is in highschool so it’s mostly me. In this family once you reach the age of independence—where you can make your own meals, do your homework solo, and basically can just function without supervision—You’re expected to take on the responsibilities of caring for your younger siblings as well, for instance cleaning after them, making meals, helping with homework. It’s just really hard. Whenever my mom gets mad or stressed she just looks for stuff to yell about. At one point in summer she started yelling every day at some things not even connected to us. I got su*dal but I’m Ok now. I don’t know how to cope though now that it’s summer and she’s been stressed again lately. I’m definitely not su*dal anymore but it’s just been really hard. I don’t sleep well and I have a few speech disorders that make day to day communication hard.
