[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Truth is, it's rare for siblings to equally or equitably split caregiving responsibilities. To operate effectively, you need to have a lead. Just how it is. Better to be an only child caregiver than have siblings that obstruct or make caregiving more difficult. Family can get downright mean in these situations.[/quote] Agree. I'd rather have it all on me than fight with a sibling over it. It would be great to have siblings where everyone is just supportive and helps each other but I think what happens more often is that either some siblings are strong and support the others or everyone just fights or everyone just gets support elsewhere because they can't get it from each other for whatever reason. I'd rather be an only than any of those situations even if in an ideal world I'd have a sibling who just totally got it and we were there for each other.[/quote]
