Footnote to our Parents

It's unfair!

When I was eight, I was forced to learn how to cook rice! How to wash plates! How to clean the house! How to fix my parent's bed! How to feed the dogs! How to baby sit! And most of all, how to do things the way they wanted! My dad gives me bruises every time I rank lower than the first at school! He rarely give me the toys I want and what I hate most? He always slap, punch, and kick me near to death every time I complain!

However, my younger brother whose turning 11 this July( or June, I'm not sure.hihi) has never learned even to boil water and has flunked from 2nd place down to a rank somewhat just like disgrace from the mark I left at my elementary Alma Mater! Whenever he's not in his bike, he sticks on the computer, even playing while eating( while me before, I gain bruises courtesy by my dad whenever I eat in-front of the TV)! And what freaks me out most? I never seen my dad hazed him for that! He is highly tolerated and every time I scream "IT'S UNFAIR!!!!" I end up angry but locked in my room waiting for the new sets of bruise to heal.

My mother always say, "You're actually fortunate because you learned all of those now that your still young. You'll gonna need that in the future!". Say whatever mom! Those things aren't hard to learn and my brother could actually learn that if he want when he get old for just a single overnight! What I want is for him to experience all of those hellish commands, NOW!

Oh well oh well. They wont hear my cry after all. They don't have an access to internet. So this revolt is worthless :).

But this might be one of the reason why I grew up near but not emotionally close to my family and somehow, rebellious. I had served my family well since the day I became fully rational, but I don't think I'm receiving enough benefit. When I was in highschool, my parents seems to treat me like an innocent, pure, and super baryotic(new word! Pertaining to something so rural) lass that who have to take good care of my virginity(as if I still got it >:] ). Why? because they said that I have to go home before the sun sets. FREAK! And because of that, I missed so much of my youth. When I'm at home, I always have to man the store, and spend all my day waiting for the f*****ng peso to come. See how I was deprived of my youth?

I hope the parents of today's youth would learn understand their children. They don't have to spoil them, they just got to go beyond what they thought of proper disciplining of their teens. It's not good to the side of the child to grow deprived of the happiness he deserves, remember we only sail to thesame life once. We understand you, our parents, but you don't have to be OA, you can take good care of us with out suffocating us. uhm, and just be fair. :)
