[quote=Anonymous]I know you asked for positive stories, but I feel I need to be real with you hear because it might help you. My sister and I are 8 years apart with me being the younger sister. WE get along find now as adults, not so much as kids, part of this is due to the age gap and part of this is because my parents forced my sister to be happy about it. I think things probably would have gone more smoothly if they had accepted she may not be excited about it, and not try to force her into the big sister role. Let your oldest child have their feelings. Try to keep as much of their routine and life the same as possible. [/quote]
