Anyone else feel like they need to make their parents proud?

My parents didn't go to college and my mom didn't graduate from high school. My whole life I was told how important school was and that my brother and i were going to graduate no matter what. We both did. I am a junior in college, but have never gotten a 3.0, the last time was as a freshman in high school. I love learning, but i don't do well on papers or exams. I don't even think grad. school is an option. I am so scared to write a resume and find a career because i don't think i will be good enough at a career. If things are too hard i like others to help me. anyway my brother is 2 yrs younger and his gf has been living with my family for almost a yr bc her family is a Jerry Springer episode. She has a son who calls my brother daddy and I consider him a nephew and love him dearly. Well they are getting married next week. She is also pregnant now with my brother's baby. The marriage has been planned longer than she has been pregnant. anyway my brother never went to college and didn't get a good GP. I am so worried he is going to screw up his life and make his kids resentful. I was resentful as a teenager bc i saw other kids who got whatever they wanted and I didn't. Anyway I feel like I need to make my parents proud. It is so hard.
