Okay so my mother is practically wanting me to leave and live elsewhere. My mother and I have always had a rocky relationship. Sometimes I would be right, and sometimes she was right. My parents are together, and I have a really good relationship with my father. I have a lot of priorities like schoolwork and my social life, and find it hard to communicate with my mother. I really want to have a relationship with her, but it seems like all she would like to do is ignore me. I do not approach her, because when I do, it usually results in fighting. My brother and I are in the same grade, and he happens to do some things much better than I (such as better grades, better in music, etc.). It seems like my mother praises my brother much more than she praises me. My mother has never told me once that she was proud of me being her daughter, and I take it very personally. I've done a lot to be on good terms with her, but sometimes, I get impatient and tired of being ignored. But when I do get attention, it turns out to be the wrong attention. I feel like I'm only looked at based on the flaws. For example, I had a piano recital today. I did exceptional, according to my father. But my mother said nothing to me. She simply complained to my teacher about how I don't have a great chance of going to college because I am "shy" and don't do well in school (even though I think I'm doing alright). We just have different perspectives, and I don't know what to make of it.
