[quote=Anonymous]I have four boys... 18, 10, 3 and 2. The oldest is not really close with any of his siblings, but that's because he has always been a quiet, serious kid. He was nice to his younger brother growing up (8 year gap) and they never had any problems. The second one is VERY close with his younger brothers (~7.5 year gap), you'd almost think that those were his kids... he plays with them ALL the time, wants to help at bed time, reads them stories, and is very patient with them. The oldest one, however, doesn't pay hardly any attention to the toddlers (~16 year gap), with the exception that he'll occasionally sit in the room with them while they watch a movie if DH and I need to go somewhere. The toddlers think both their older brothers walk on water, obviously. In my house at least, it seems to depend a lot more on the personality of the kid and less on the age gap. [/quote]
