Who said you weren't good enough for your family ? In fact, who said you weren't good enough at all ? On which criterias do you consider yourself not good enough ? Let me tell you that there is no such thing as someone who's not good enough. We all matter, and we all have a role in life. I understand if you're finding dificulties with your family, but This is not a reason for you to cast yourself as not good enough. You are good enough, you are good and i am sure you are brave enough to fight back and speak up What you truly feel. Feel free to contact one of the listeners or talk to your surroundings about it.

No one is good no one bad. You can still be good if you want to be good enough for yourself and your family. Don't wait for the right moment to change yourself.

If someone no matter how close a relation is making you feel that you aren't good enough, then it's not worth the effort. The bottomline is that any feeling of self worth should come from within but as human beings we do need someone to validate our thinking, or our opinion of ourselves. But that is the second step. Why you are looking for others to acknowledge your worth even before you know yours.

You will always be good enough. Family can be complicated, just remember you are unique individual.

It is because your family has got some unrealistic expectations of you. They gave birth of you expecting that you will be something different than you are now or you are going to be. Every parent has got an image of their desired child and how they wish their child will grow up and if their expectations aren't met, they can be upset and disappointed over their child when child reaches certain age, but not accomplishes what parents wished. For example, if parents wished to have a child who will be musician, but it later turns out that their child has no interest in music, but has interest in sport, parents' expectations aren't met and parents are disappointed over their child and child senses that they aren't good enough for their parents or family.

To anyone who told you you are not good enough, they are no better. Never forget you are worth more than the value you place on yourself and besides life is too short to be small.

If you feel you are never going to be good enough for the people in your life, you need to ask if they are good enough for you. Ask yourself what it means to be a good person. Live by the deals that you set for yourself, not by the expectations (good or bad) of others. You may not be able to be good enough for them, but you can be good enough for you.

Family structures can put pressure on people to succeed, as well as make people vulnerable. Your family probably loves you, sometimes it's just difficult to show it.
