Genuinely What Do I Do?

My mother (34f) and me (15f) have never gotten along ever since I was 10 she would yell at me saying I am doing things wrong and I would get overwhelmed with the stuff she made me do. On my 10th birthday she taught me how to make hamburger helper and told me it was now my responsibility to maintain the house. If I do not do it she would get mad and cuss me out for hours over small mistakes. Once when I was cooking by myself with the oven on full heat because my mom said I am mature for my age and will figure it all out (I was still 10) I burnt myself badly and my mom called me dumb. Now my sister is almost 10 and she does nothing but play on her Nintendo and I’m still cleaning up after everyone and stressing over school. My mom said my sister won’t have to do anything because it’s my job because I’m the oldest I honestly wanna cry atp.

I know there's nothing I can do or say that will really help your situation, but I've been in a similar place over the last few years where my parents made me do a large proportion of the housework, practically destroying my social life, so i have some idea what you mean and how youre feeling. I just want to say that I'm sure it will get better for you eventually, even if that's just a result of you moving into your own place in the future and moving away from the parental pressure. Having said that, I wish you the best of luck with everything and I'm sorry for everything you have to go through.
