[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 729501, member: 4040"] I felt my dad was always in competition with me. Though he appreciated that I was clever and smart, because I made him look good, at home he was basically hateful. He was very big on image and everything looking perfect. My mom preferred my brother (three years younger) over me most of my life. My brother is very much like my father was, judgmental and arrogant, and my mom bent over backwards for his acceptance. In recent years, my mom has recognized my brother's behaviors and is standing up for herself. My brother is a jerk. Always has been. He wants to rewrite his life so he's perfect - his daughter was horrified to discover her mom was five months pregnant with her when Brother and Wife got married, and even more horrified to learn that her oh so perfect father had been married before. He dislikes me because I have an excellent memory, I know where the bodies are buried, and I'm basically a loose cannon when I'm really annoyed. He annoys me. I adore my niece, though. My nephew - just like his father. [/QUOTE]
