You didn't have to deal with money troubles because so much  money was being spent on therapy for a sib.

You didn't have to deal with a sib who might never be capable of a reciprocal relationship with you, or parents who were terrified about what would happen to your sib when they died. You were never put in a position where you knew you would the person to care for your sib when your parents died.

You never had to deal with your sib having a full blown meltdown in front of your friends at school.

You didn't have to deal with other kids asking you what is wrong with your sib and is he crazy.

You didn't have to deal with people staring at you in the parking lot because your sib is stimming and it looks weird.

You didn't have to deal with being forced to leave a movie theater before the end of the movie because your sib couldn't stop repeating  the lines of the movie over and over in a loud voice and your mother was embarrassed.

You never had to deal with a stranger threatening to call the police on  your father because he had to restrain your sib at the park during a meltdown. (Stranger thought the sib was being abused. Lord save us from helpful idiots.)

You didn't have to deal with guilt because you have friends and hobbies and will go to college and move out and your sib never will.
