I'm with Doanie8 on this one. (I really enjoy your insights).

Try talking to your dad about it. Try and get youself in a more tranquil state first though. It will go better.

Finding your own niche is good too. I refused to join the swim team just because my sister had been on it. The swim coach wasn't too pleased, but I was able to succeed in my own arena somewhere else where I never had to deal with being compared to my older sister.

Find your strengths and go with them. This doesen't mean to give up on the other stuff. Give yourself the gift of having something worthwhile to struggle against, but at the same time, give yourself some credit for the things you do well.
