[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are lots of posts by parents who love the large age gap but has anyone been part of the older kids whose parents had another kid much later? From the kid perspective were you close with your youngest sibling or not until adulthood. Most people I know who were the kids in this scenario did not appreciate the change in family nearly as much as their parents proclaimed they did. They also didn’t have much of a relationship until they were all adults due to being at such different stages of life. Some resented being expected to babysit. [/quote] I was an older kid in a large age gap family and I LOVED having a baby sister. We were a super active family and she didn’t change the dynamic that much because she would just come along for all our activities. She was a very chill kid so this might not have worked with a different personality type. We are still very close as adults and I love having a cool twenty-something to teach me about Gen Z.[/quote]
