Subject: Let's talk about our siblings!

Written By: violet_shy on 02/05/20 at 9:53 pm

Do you have any brothers and/or sisters? How many and what are their ages?

I have two brothers, and one sister. My oldest brother is 45, my second brother is 42, and my sister is 32.

I don't have any. I'm an only child. I also ended up being the only grandchild on either side of the family!

I have a sister who is 2 1/2 years younger than me, she just turned 41.  That's it, at least that I know of (I've heard stories from time to time....)

I am the last out of 6. (My parents saved the best for last.  :D ;D ;D ;D) I have one brother (who is the oldest) and the rest are sisters. Unfortunately, we lost our oldest sister in 2008.  :\'( :\'( :\'(

No, I didn't think it was special. My sisters teased me merciless when we were growing up (they still do sometimes). I also missed out of a lot of things that they had because when it was my turn to get them, we no longer had the means.

By the time I was in high school, I was the only one left at home and my mother tried to suppress me because I was the last of her "babies". I felt like I had more freedom when I was 10 years old than I did when I was 17. I left home short of my 19th birthday.

Today, I have a very good relationship with my sisters which I am VERY grateful for. The 4 of us are fairly close. My brother is basically the black sheep. A lot of that has to do with his wife. We are sure if she wasn't in the picture, he would probably be more a part of this family.

Two brothers, one sister living, one sister that passed at 2 yrs old (she had heart complications due to Downs syndrome).
I am the only child by my mother and father and oldest of the bunch.

You almost sound like my mother - she’s the second last of 6, with one brother who is also the oldest. They are all still living but one has had cancer on and off since she was 25 (she’ll be 60 in April).

I never had a brother, but if I did, I would have always done my best to respect 'em.

My dad was the oldest of three boys, and from what I understand, he was always good to his brothers. (That is, they were all on good terms.)

You can't ever be too certain about these things.

Excuse me. I trust my father; he always treats everyone well. And he and my mom both taught me well too.
In fact... lately, one of his brothers was recently in the hospital for treatment on an infection, so naturally my dad showed concern, by talking with his brother over the phone about it. Furthermore, my uncle even called the house from his phone to give us updates on the whole thing.
