In all fairness, as the black sheep of my family, I've embraced the role. And I love being me because of it. There is nothing wrong with being the black sheep. And sadly, there is no way of changing someone's opinion of us. That's up to them. The only thing we can change, is how we feel about ourselves.

This is a reflective, responsive universe. The universe inputs whatever you yourself are outputting. If you want to change how others feel about you, change how YOU feel about you. The people outside you are always reflecting your internal reality. You have the power to change how they treat you by changing how you treat yourself.

Talk to your family about how you feel! They might not realise thet treat you like that. Don't be scred to tell them how you really feel and tell them what makes you feel like that. Good luck!

Try to show them that you don't, by doing something which would make them speechless... Just think and you'll find something you can do. If you are willing to do so, you will find a way. Good luck!

Communication. Most of the time they don't know you are feeling that way. Tell them that it's affecting you. Don't get mad about it, but have a reasonable talk.

Just tell them how you feel. Hopefully they'll listen and you can work out your problems. I've been in your shoes, I know how it feels.

It is good if you can seat them down and tell them how you feel and what you like to be different. You will be surprise on how much just talking can solve.

Tell them how you feel. If you are not listened to or understood by them, show them better. Try your best and show them the best sides of you and always remember to respect your family members.
