Sibling love
If anyone of you out there have siblings who aren't good looking and you make it your duty to make them conscious of their looks, please stop. If they can't speak properly or are bad at studies or any other short- comings and you keep reminding them about it 24/7, please stop.
It might be fun for you but it's not the same for them. Listening to the same mockery again and again breaks self confidence bit by bit. They start to look down on themselves more and more with each comment you pass on them to get seconds of laugh. You make make them doubt themselves, you break their confidence, you force them to keep in a shell and later when they don't feel like spending time with you or you find them glued to their books or games or phone, you complain about having a boring sibling who doesn't know fun.
So this is a humble request, if your sibling isn't good looking and you can't help build their confidence, please don't spit out mockery as well. If they have trouble with speech and you can't help them through the journey, don't pull them down if they try on their own to better themselves.
And those of you are the siblings, second guessing themselves because of your sibling's words.. Well i dont have any motivational words for now but when I do get them I will make sure to share them with you all. Just hang in there coz you are much more than what others define you as.

I hear you!!! Friends can do this to each other too. I had a so called 'Friend' who liked to tease me all the time, call me names, tease me about certain aspects of my Looks, (my hands and feet and figure).
You are so right, this sucks big time and should not be accepted. As even if People seem like it doesn't hurt or matter to them, it does.
That old "I'm only joking" is a crock. And if you give the lip or cheek or teasing back to them, they only last 2 seconds in tolerating it back. They are Bullies plain and simple and need to be called out on this.
