[quote=Anonymous]As the younger sibling, I absolutely hated when my parents did that. My sister, who was 3 years older, got an official permission to boss me around while being paid for it. I was a very mature kid who didn't need much supervision. I hated that she got such a massive advantage (both financial and emotional) simply because she was born earlier, as that was completely out of our control and those roles would never be reversed. I wish that my parents would have either hired a babysitter for the both of us or just let us hang out together without encouraging her to feel superior. That type of dynamic still exists to this day, and I wish it hadn't been encouraged when we were younger.[/quote]
