[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It sucks for the siblings too. My childhood was basically destroyed by first my oldest brother just melting down as a teen and then my dad having a heart attack. I became an adult at nine. My older siblings didn’t help raise me; I became the helper to my mom and my brother who was a mess and my sister who was bitter about it. I didn’t get to be my own person until my late 20s. Having a big family just meant exponentially more dysfunction and obligation.[/quote] What does this really have to do with three siblings? Plenty of people have dysfunctional 2-person families. It sounds like you would've become your mom's helper regardless of whether you had a sister or not. My sister-in-law had a lot of family dysfunction including the untimely early death of both her parents and fights with one of her sisters over inheritance, and her other sister (3 sisters total) was a big help and support to her.[/quote]
