Idk what to put :/

I never did anything right. Even tho I did, my parents wont even believe anything I say. But it's okay :)) They're still my parents no matter what I do.

"You shoud get better grades" Yeah I did but for the next quarted I noticed that the grades dropped in two of my subjects. Last quarter it was 96 but it became 95. And the other subject it was 91 and it became 89/87 (I dont remember) then after that my mom didn't talk to me for 1 whole week straight. I was like okay maybe I deserve it? But then I realized was my mom too strict? And that's when I started getting jealous at other people's moms. Although I know its not good.. But I can't help but think that when their child gets a 70/80 on their report card but they don't get mad, they comforted their child instead :) And the way they "support" me, I dont like it. They always say "Nah, she can't do the exam" "(me) is not smart, how will she pass the exam?" "_______ is way better. (me) should be more like her" they said that because they thought I'm the one who thinks like "No! I'll prove them wrong!" that.

This happened a year ago, My dad was mad that time, I forgot why he was mad. But for sure I remember him shouted at me and said "useless child, you never did anything right" loudly. I mean, It's true? I sit around on the couch almost half of the day with my phone scrolling in tiktok. But I still help with the chores and do my assignments without their help. They do everything they could for us to have something to eat. And I feel sorry for them tbh..

I sometimes get scratches and wounds in all the parts of my body because my parents hit/slap me just because I did something that's not even a big deal. That's why when my friends pretend like they're going to hit me and say "Wow you're such a softie why are you scared?" I dont know, trauma? And I hate the fact that my parents compare me to my friends/other children who does better than me. And If I defend myself they'll say I'm disrespecting them.

They called me ugly, fat, small, I have ugly hair, ugly body, ugly face, eyes, nose, mouth, etc. and my cousin even laughed at me because I have so many acne... And then they'll be saying "You should earn more confidence, that's why you don't like socializing with people" Yeah sure....

I have good grades, I have friends, I have a complete family, I have a house, I have something to eat, I have a phone etc. And I am thankful for that! But there's something missing....

You are missing self-love, respect, and a true sense of family.

You really need to figure out a way to move out when you're old enough because that is not how a parent is supposed to treat a child. Parents are supposed to nurture their children, not tear them down to watch them get back up.

You just keep getting those good grades so you can go to a good college and get away from them. Don't listen to anything they say. They are broken inside and trying to live through you because they feel like failures. You are not a failure. You are their child, and it isn't your job to live their dreams for them.

If they are hitting you, you could technically report them to the police and see about getting removed from the home, also.
