Most of the time having its the best, when you have sibling you care for them so much as if they are the only people in the world that mattered. Siblings are thought and talked about because they have a special place in the family. The other family members have different attitudes towards each child because of the order they were born in. In the article"How your birth order influences your life adjustment by Lucielle Forer" It states "the other members of the family assume certain attitudes towards each child in terms of his birth order," I agree with that statement.
Being the middle child is not easy because you have someone who is older than you and someone who is younger than you. You cant screw anything because then your parents and older sibling will think that you are teaching the little one something bad. When you are the younger child you can do almost anything and not get in trouble with your parents. They baby you because you are a baby in their eyes, but if you're the middle or older child and you do something bad they will easily scold you very harshly.
Katherine is the older out of all her little brothers, shes always caring for them, and tries to keep them on a good track. On a Saturday they went to visit their family out in Virginia. Katherine's little brothers started acting out, they were play fighting and hitting their cousins, Katherine immediately told them to stop but they ignored her, their family members commented and whispered and sad to Katherine that she has no control over the kids. Katherine got mad and left because just because shes the oldest they expect her to always control her brothers.
Having sibling can be very fun but at the same time it can also be a challenge that is very hard, younger siblings always want your help and can be very bratty, while the older ones can be mean sometimes and act like they know it all.
