[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My 30 and 20-something adult dcs' love their 11 yo sibling. She's been the light of all our lives. She also looks forward to being an aunt when the first grandchild arrives! My own mom is still living and loving dc and my dad was until last year. My older dc are certainly not 'parenting younger sibling and managing aging parent' hello I'm 54 and we're heading to the trampoline park later![/quote] People on here are constantly posting about how their much older kids just adore their much younger sibling. In real life the people I know who have these either resented the change in the family dynamic or were not remotely close to their much younger get sibling until much later in adulthood. It absolutely dramatically changes the family dynamic but to each his own. [/quote] *Raises hand* My family of origin - older sibling is 10 years older; younger sibling is 8 years younger. We do indeed love each other, although I’m still mad the younger one was a brother when I wanted a sister. It was FINE. All this fear mongering is silly. [/quote]
