[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not my family's spread, but one of my friends had a brother about 4 years older and they were SUPER close all through childhood, and seem to have stayed friends as adults. I think it relies on the older one being a big fan of having someone to look/after protect, which is really personality dependent.[/quote] Agree with this, with the twist that extroversion in the oldest really helps too. My oldest isn't a natural caretaker, but she always wants to be around people, meaning that interaction with her 2 year old sister (she's 7) is better than nothing. The 2 year old idolizes her sister, so all is great, but she is also content to play by herself, and I'm not sure the dynamic would work as well if their personalities or ages were flipped.[/quote]
