If you don't mind me saying so...it doesn't sound like you have a very good relationship with your parents. My suggestion to you would be to move on....out of your fathers company and use your management skills. Start out with another company and work your way up the ladder. I have always told my daughters.."Don't say you CAN'T do something unless you have tried and failed" this is the only way you will know. If you set your mind to ANYTHING you will succeed. Tell yourself that you can, and will, do it and you will. Show your Mom you can do it.

Good Luck!
You are correct, my relationship with the parents is strained at best. My dad worked a lot as a kid so I never really got to know him. And in my mom's eyes I was a very distant second to my wonderful brother. I'm scared to try to find something else. I'm have a hard time selling myself. Plus I have no idea what I really want to pursue. But I have a few days off this week & i think I'm going to do some major soul searching. Going back to school is also an option. I just need to find a direction. Plus a little therapy to help with my self esteem probably wouldn't hurt either.

Thanks, for listening & being so supportive.
