lol. what funny stories people have about sibling rivalries. sometimes i even formulated ideas about the functions of siblings from the eldest to the youngest. As the second child of the four children, ive always been the middle sibling, but sometimes I act as the responsible one at times when my older brother is irresponsible. lol.
Also, I believed that out of the four children, I am the one that communicate the most and relate to them easily. a bit of a influentual person myself i think, but on the bigger picture, i think we siblings work as a team as there are no dominant ones nor easily manipulated by my parents as they don't always do as they're told. if my parents are getting on my nerves, i like to let my siblings know that they're wrong and im right so that we brothers are brought together in respite to our parents not that we don't like them. lol.
anyway, i thought of my older brother as the stubborn one, myself as the umm, the sane, deep thinker, my next younger brother as the risky, lacks direction, annoying, but understandable guy and my youngest brother as the egostic, troublesome, irresponsible, hero-loving guy with a big mouth and the one that is mostly out of control.
we are all about 2 years apart on average. i am 15 months younger than my older brother so i tend to challenge his responsibility as the eldest sometimes coz what happens if he does not take responsibility, who would? if not my parents, perhaps me?
hmm. i guess that's how i describe my siblings and our relationships.
