[quote=Anonymous]Op I know everyone is going to pile in with stories that prove that siblings don't help or that close siblings are unicorns, etc. Siblings are absolutely NOT a guarantee of support, love,help,etc. But I also think it's fair to acknowledge your feelings about this, validate them, or else how can you move passed them? It's ok to sort of mourn a relationship you didn't get to have. And then process and move on from it. By just telling the OP how shitty some siblings are doesn't help her do that. She effectively stays stuck with her feelings but now is being told they arent valid basically. They are. There are lots of close siblings, lots. It's ok though to not have that and build your own with those who don't have that to fall back on either. Won't be exactly the same re parent decisions but can be the same for emotional support[/quote]
