Sometimes I feel my parents don’t believe that I have any talent . I can feel that they don’t like me since being a 17 year old I’m only 37 kg , skinny and skeletal . They show affection especially my father . But I don’t know if they really think that I am good enough to be their child . I want to make them proud . The thing is they don’t believe in me . I know being underweight is not good but due to lack of belief i also lost my confidence . I love to dance but due to nervousness I was never able to showcase my talent . It’s my fault also but I think as a parent if they encouraged me I would have become a more confident person . If only they would have been able to tell people that that it’s ok that my daughter is thin . They still tell me to gain weight and even mock me that if I don’t gain weight I will not be able presentable and ready to face the outside world . In fact the thing they don’t know is that I am very sad that they think like that when in reality I have good communication skills and I have a good personality with tactiful thinking about what is right and what is wrong . But I feel sometimes that if my parents were supportive towards me when everyone made fun of me they would have been able to see a better version of their daughter . I know they have financial problems a lot but encouragement doesn’t require money but just your pure heart . I wish they understand it .
