I looked all over the place for a topic like this,but I couldn't find one.If there is please forgive me.

Well I have 2 sisters,I'm the middle child.Sometimes we fight like cats and dogs.People say that since we are all girls that we should be able to get along but I think it's even worse.Do any of you guys get like sibling jealousy? I know I do sometimes,but I really want the best for them and I'm always there for them.

I have three sisters. I'm the oldest. They can be annoying almost all the time but I love them still anyways. I have this one friend who is like my sister. I love her like one. She lives in Florida and I live in New York. We run up the phone bill and send lots of letters.

I have 5 sisters and one brother, all older than me. My eldest niece is only a year younger than I am. I live miles away from them all and I love it that way. When we were growing up 4 of my sisters shared a bedroom and I shared with my brother. My oldest sister had left home by this time. My sister had the bigeest bedroom and me and my brother had the smallest. We used to argue all the time and neither of us had any privacy, we would both have to dress in the bathroom! When I was 12 the last of my sisters moved out and I got the big bedroom. My brother wa so relieved to have his own room at last at the age of 15. My own kids have never had to share a room. Believe it or not, I'm probably closest to my oldest sister. The others are all too close to each other and that leads to bickering even though they are all in their middle years (50's). Where family is concerned, you never grow up!

I only have a younger brother, he's about 3 years younger than me. We try not to fight or bicker but it happens. Sometimes we'll fight just for the fun of it, and though that might sound weird, it's just a game we play. We're actually really close, and we share a lot of things. Thankfully we don't share bedrooms, however when we have relatives over I give up my room and crash in his room on a blow-up mattress. What normally happens is that we chit-chat for a long time until one of my parents comes in to tell to be quiet. Even though we're getting a bit older, it still is fun to do the things we used to do when we were younger, like going sliding and pushing eachother off the hill. Like Rosie said, sure there's a little jealousy sometimes but I want the best for him and I know he thinks the same about me. Normally the jealousy only sparks when he leaves for somewhere and I'm still at home.

I have a nearly 16-year-old sister, who is 2 years older than me. We get on well most of time, but we fight occasionally. It's sometimes great having an older sister as she can lend you clothes, do your hair and make up and is great with advice! We often do things together, like going shopping and to the cinema but sometimes she hates being seen with me. She gets very strange mood swings. But then there's the pros - she always gets her own way, thinks she's great, and is really annoying sometimes.

Then I have a nearly 5-year-old little brother, who is very cute. I love spoiling him and treating him and playing with him, but sometimes it seems as if my parents favour him because he's the youngest and my sister and I are so much older.
He's the baby of the family and we all love him, but when he's cranky it's best if you go nowhere near him!

*Caoimhe*

I have four sisters and two brothers. Three of the sisters are older, and one brother is older. As you may have guessed, I have a younger sister and a younger brother. Generally, we get along, but we are siblings and bickering is a must. My little sister and I bicker almost constantly. My little brother is the sweetest thing! My older brother is pretty cool, and we get along well enough.(Except on the subject of HP vs. LOTR, but that's another story.) My third oldest sister is okay. I have to like her. She introduced me to Harry Potter . My second oldest sister is really fun, and we get along just fine. My oldest sister is ten years older than me, and we have a special connection. We are a lot alike, and both of us love our arts and fantasy.

Sometimes, I compare my family to the Weasley's beacause we have the same number of family members. I one time figured it out, If my family was to completely marry into the Weasly's. Jen would marry Bill, Bryce would marry Charlie (Bryce is a girl, by the way.), Rachel would mary Percy, Keith would marry George ( That wouldn't work out so well, seeing as he's heterosexual ), I would marry Fred *faints with joy*, Mary would marry Ron, and Danny would marry Ginny. I really am too addicted to Harry Potter for my own good.

I have a 16 year old brother who is three years younger than me. We're extremely close,and I don't think we've ever had a really bad fight in our lives. It's great now that I'm at uni, we talk all the time and I'm always sending music and stuff home for him.

I love having a younger brother, we have a really good relationship.

It’s so heartwarming reading about your big families and so close and nice relationships with your siblings. I wish I was able to say something along the same lines, though.

I’m an only child and at the same time I am not. I have a half-brother, who comes from my father’s first marriage and is thirteen years older than I am. He used to live with my family till I was five. When I was five, he turned eighteen, thus became legally adult, and left us. And that's how I became the only child.

I think that saying about him that he is the black sheep of the family is a nice way of putting it. As a consequence of him being the way he is, we don’t have much contact with each other. He phones or calls on me once or twice a year, but I never know what to make out of him. He always tells me how much he likes me, and I would love to believe him so much. Maybe he really does mean it, because I always used to be his little sister. It’s just that I don't think I know him. And seeing/hearing him once a year does not help the situation. I would love to get closer to him, but I don't see it as much possible.

When I was younger I didn’t mind being an only child at all. I had a room to myself and I had my peace for reading and studying. Also, I think this has straightened my relation with my parents, whom I love dearly.

But nowadays, I sometimes find myself wondering what it would be like to have a bother or a sister, with whom I could talk and share bits and pieces of my life. I think I have never went through the stage when kids plead with their parents for a sibling. But I think I could do with one now.

Anyway, I would like to wish everyone many nice moments spent with their siblings.

Jana, I'm sorry you don't have a deep relationship with your brother. I hope someday you will, though. I don't have deep relationship with my siblings, either for different reasons.

My siblings are five, three and eight months. I'm almost sixteen, so it's hard to have a "close" realationship with them, because the things a teenager goes through in high school you can't talk too with a five year old. But nontheless, I still love my siblingd so much, but being 10, 12 and 15 years older than them is hard, because they definetly get pesty.

But my cousin just turned 15 in February and we are really, really close she's like a sister to me. We talk about [u]everything[u/], and whenever she has a problem at home, I'm the first one she calls. She has siblings too, and we're both close to her brother, who is seventeen. Apart from her family, my grandfather, and my dad's parents, I don't really talk to anyone in my family, because they don't all get along. So at least I have those people to be close too, because they are pretty ... rad

I have only one sister, but my cousins are just like my siblings cause I've grown up practicially living with them so I count them as siblings. Counting my cousins as my siblings, I'm the second oldest kid. One brother is older than me and the rest are younger. My oldest brother is 18, next brother 16, next sister 13, next sister 12, next brother 11, next brother 9, next brother 6, last brother 2.

I get along with them all as far as getting along with siblings goes. The one I have the most trouble is with my 12 year old sister. We argue constantly. We're just really different. My 16 year old brother gets on my nerves too. I get along the best with my 13 year old sister and my oldest brother. I don't think it's possible not to have a little jealously pang now and then. I never let it get far though. The main thing that bothers me is when the younger siblings are allowed to do things younger than I was. That gets me the most. Silly I know, but that's my main error. I love them all though. Couldn't imagine life without them. Well, it would be terribly boring.

After all this time, I guess you already know I have a brother... He's 2 and a half years younger than me (he's 21 and I'm 23).

We've always been like twins, weird, I know, but it's true. I can't remember a single time in my life when I've been away from him. When we were little, we used to fight a lot, and there were times when stupid things even got physical... That wasn't nice.

During our teens, we wouldn't talk a lot, but ever since our parents split, we've almost become inseparable, except for our different career choices... We would even find ourselves on campus and wave and stick our tongues out at each other (in a very playfully way of course!) and if we find each other coming or going to or from school or home, we would wave and honk and it's very nice. I simply love him!

He's great with computers and I'm a total dork, and he's been as nice as to take study time to help me out with mine. He even worried that I wasn't too "in" and introduced me to iPods. Every now and then I yell that something happened to mine and he patiently comes to my room and helps me out... He's nice to me... Sometimes! Hahaha!

No one's perfect, he's got his temper! And he's my biggest teaser! But I guess I love him!

(Yes! You saw it here Nate! I'm not going crazy! *sticks tongue out* Hahaha!)

Yep, I have a little, 8-year old sister. And no, I don't have sibling jealousy.

i have an older brother. he can get so terribly annoying at times, but i love him. after all, he is family.

I have a sister of 12, we are fighting all the time! Maybe it's because of our very differents personalities and tempers, cause I'm tidy, bosy, smart, annoying, and she is exactly the opposite! And maybe the diffence between ages, I'm 17, so sometimes it's get me upset when she try to copy whatever I do ... I hate when she do that.

I have a younger brother who drives me crazy a lot of the time. I don't think a day has gone past when we didn't fight/argue/bicker. It's probably because we have different personalities. And I'm always trying to boss him around which I don't think he likes. *shrugs*

At least he's a Harry Potter fan. A lot of the time, we take out wands and start pretending to fire spells at each other. That's pretty fun... And, no, I don't get jealous of him and I don't think that he gets jealous of me. Which is good

yeah that happens to me alot
especially cause it seems like my brother is perfect
i always feel like i have to do as good as he did in school
or better
I tend to get jealous of him
because i feel like my dad likes him better
just because he's the only boy
i still love him and stuff
but there are those moments when you wish you were an only child
right?
or is it just me?

I have one older brother so that makes me the youngest. He is 16 years old and his name is Jesse. Me and my brother don't get along that well. My parents always believe him since he's the oldest when he starts it all!

I have two older brothers and they are both older than me. My oldest brother is Jack and he is twenty-one. My other brother is Nate and he is eighteen. I don't get along well with either, I annoy them, they annoy me. Vacations are always the worst, we can't be around each other too much or else we go crazy just like last vacation. The only time they are nice to me is when Jack's girlfriend and Nate's friend are around because they yell at them if they are mean to me.

I have one younger sister. we pretty much stay to ourselves but we talk and crack jokes at the lake and all. She is a great sister and all but we do fight. I hurt her (I dont know my own strength ) But i really dont mean to. You know the brother sister kind of love haha

I have 3 younger sisters. They're cute occassionally but most of the time they just drive me insane. I know they don't do it on purpose but... *shrugs* The one who is closest to me in age is the complete polar opposite of me so most of the time we just don't talk because it normally leads to a fight. Occassionally the two of us get along and when we do she's great but most of the time we can't stand each other. My other sisters are cute but they're to much younger than me to have anything in common with so we're not really that close.

I have one little sister. She's two years, three months, and a week younger than me. We're close, but I think that's because our house is so tiny that we don't have much of a choice. But we aren't really into the same kind of things. I like reading, writing, fantasy/disney movies, and soft, smooth pop music. She likes Horses, Horse books, horse movies, and music in the horse movies. Noticing a trend here? We drive each other crazy sometimes (like now. She can't decide whether to where jeans or sweatpants to a horse riding lesson. Does it matter?) but we love each other. We get along when we bother to try.

Well I just like to say that I have a half sister name Brenda. She is 23 years old and in the army and is currently in Iraq :/ I meet her when I was about 3 or 4 and after awhile my mom didn't want her to come and visit anymore. [We're related by dad]. And I didn't see her again til I was 8. After that I hadn't her from her for 6 years until she got in contact with my dad and I and I was really emotional when I finally spoke to her. And I just spent a week with her, which is the most that I have ever spent with her, literally :/

I have one brother, older than me by 11 years. I like it just the way it is, because with this big of an age difference, we don't try to kill each other and rip each others heads off like most close-aged siblings. We get along really well, and he is probably my favourite family member

Yes, I have two brothers, one, my half brother being 5 years older than me ,21 and my younger brother being 2 and a half years younger, 14, (I'm very nearly 17 by the way =]), normally we all get along well with one another, especially my younger brother, he's funny sometimes

Jana, I'm sorry about your half-brother! I do hope that you two will end up having a better relationship before its too late!!

Nicky Potter, I hope your half-sister comes back from Iraq safe and sound and I hope you two end up having a better relationship as well! There's nothing like having your family there for you. Also, I'd like to commend your sister for being over there and serving whatever country she is serving for!!

Okay, I have two brothers and one sister. My oldest brother is 26 and he just married his high school sweetheart. My second oldest brother is 24 and he, too, married his high school sweetheart! They have two little boys who are the cutest boys ever!! Theres me, I'm the second youngest sister and I'm 23. Not married, going to college! And finally my little sister(ikhny) is 19 and she's in college as well!

Me and my brothers didn't get along very well when we were younger! But we've all matured and they have families so we are better. Me and my sister use to not get along at all. I use to be the odd man out, I never got along with any of them! But now me and my sister are close! We have the Harry Potter and Twilight books in common! And this site!!!! This site has totally brought our "family" time together! We sit in the living room on our laptops all night posting and talking to one another! Debating out loud! Its great! So thanks VTM!!

I have one brother who is 18 and one sister who is 20 (even though she looks younger than me sometimes). They are both in college and i am just starting high school. When we all lived at home together we used to fight all the time!! But now that they are away a lot when we finally get together we are happy to see each other and have fun with each other. We'll still fight occasionally but now its like stupid and we'll realize it is and like stop in like 5 minutes. I like it better now that we all get along

Yes I have siblings and I think that I can honestly say that they make my life so much better! We fight all the time though but at the end of the day, there's only love between us. I have an older brother, about 3 years older turning 20, and a younger sister, 1 year younger turning 16, which leaves me right smack in the middle at age 17. People have said that as a middle child, you often get ignored but I've gotten most things that I've ever wanted. My brother and I usually get along and he has always looked out for me but my sister and I fight over everything! She also argues a lot with our brother, and sometimes, all 3 of us get into it. It is usually me gaining up with my brother and fighting with my sister or my sister and I teaming up to argue with my brother. Very rarely do they team up to argue against me but when they do it isn't pretty. Lately we've all gotten along but that's only because after this week, we're all going our separate ways for when school starts.

I'm an only child. I see I'm in minority here.
I never really wanted to have a younger brother or sister ( I'd like to have older, though, but it's rather impossible ). My parents didn't want to have another child either. I got used to being an only child, so I don't mind. Being an only child has a lot of advantages, but many disadvantages too. Well, yeah, I don't have to share a room, don't have arguments like people who have siblings do, but it can be quite irritating to be the only kid among adults in the family.

Yes, i have a younger sister. She is 13, and she's just like me when i was her age. People say we look the same, and then there are people who think we look totaly different.

We used to fight all the time when we were younger. I was the oldest, so i'd always sit on her, or use physical violence against her. It mostly involved arguing, or trying to force the other into doing something.

But amazingly ... Harry Potter actually brought us together. My sister is dyslexic, and as such, it's hard for her to read. She couldn't read HP, but desperately wanted to. I began reading the series to her two years ago, and i'm still reading to her every night. She loves it, and ever since i read the first chapter of PS, we've fought less and less. Amazingly, we're not just sister's now, we're friends.

Sure, we fight sometimes, and especially when her teenaged moods kick in (i'm like that too), but sometimes i amaze myself at how easily it is to get along sometimes.

I have 1 sibling. He's my 7 year old bro. He's extremely annoying, he picks his nose, hits, and can pick me up. He's a tattletale on every stinkin thing I do, calls names, and at school never gets in trouble, and all the teachers say how he's a perfect little boy. He's a crybaby, if we're having a race of some sort, I always win, and he cries. If I win a board game, he cries. He's even started cursing. At 7!!! If we're playing monopoly, and he says he has the fire departnent, which he doesn't , so I won't pay him, he turns the board over, smacks me, starts crying, storms upstairs and gets ME in trouble, then goes in his room and hits or kicks anyone who comes within reach of him. That's how his life works. If he doesn't get what he wants, EXACTLY what he wants, he becomes very violent then goes to his room and reads a baby book. For example, we were at the dentists, and he asks if we can go to Burger King. So after he literally on his hands and knees screaming that we want to go to Burger King, my mom says yes. She orders him 6 chicken fingers, but he gets mad and grumpy and violent until she gets him 9. Then he gets mad at her again because he wants to eat in the NEW CAR. He got a nintento ds for his bday, and it go taken away for a week the next day. Okay, i'm done ranting. for now. It feels good to vent!

I have three siblings, and we're all a pretty good amount of years apart, me being the oldest.

I have a six year old sister, Caitlyn. I'm ten years older than her. She gets on my nevers a lot, but she's still really fun to be with when my friends aren't around. She also does "homework" with me, and pretends to grade my homework. She also gets ready in my room, putting on her "makeup" and "doing her hair". She's fun

Then, I have a three year old brother Peyton. He's a pain, but he lets me push him around and play-fight, which my sister doesn't let me do. He puts up a pretty good fight, too! We're thirteen years apart.

And then theres Coleman, who just turns one. He's the cutest little kid ever, but now that he's walking, he definetly annoys me most. But I still love him, and he is really fun to watch play and run around. But now he's bighting, so I have to watch out

I have four sisters and three brothers but I only grew up with one sister and two brothers because the rest of them were my dads kids (they're my half siblings) and they lived with him. But I am the youngest and the next youngest it about 9 1/2 years older..so I didn't really have to deal with sibling rivalry because by the time I was old enough..they were in high school or beyond and not caring..so I guess I was lucky..in a way

I have one sister. Age 7. She is annoying most of the time, but some times, she can be great to have around you. And, without her, there would be no one else to blame stuff that I do on!

My first thought when I read this thread was all about my friends. Yes, I think siblings means friends. I don't know that, I haven't been taught every Indonesian words mean in English. Especially in my school now. There's nothing, but non-stop yet frustrating handouts.

Okay, enough about the school things. To be honest, I don't have any siblings. I used to have two brothers and one sister, but they were all die in my mother's stomach. I know this from my mother. So, the characteristic of the last child still remain from me, even though I'm the only child. I don't like being the only child -- I don't like being alone. I need someone who can distract me and have fun with me. And, honestly, I still want a little brother because I like younger kids.

I'm an only child. Sure most of you with loads of syblings may think "I wish I was an only child", but really you don't. Most people think that if you're an only child you're spoilt. The general consenus is if you're an only child your parents will drive you anywhere, buy you anything, let you do whatever you want, but really I believe its the opposite.

My parents have hardly given me any attention over the more recent years, they've been too busy working and what not. Personally, I believe only children live lonely lives and most will give anything for just one sybling.

I have two half brothers, but I hardly ever see them and we don't act like syblings at all. When they come to my house, its more like my next door neighbour has popped in.

But anyway, that's enough rambling for today. I just thought I'd like to set that misconception straight.

Katie.

I'm an only child, but I have brothers and sisters i've never met.

In other words, i'm adopted and I have older brothers and sisters from my biological parents. From my adopted, actual and real parents, there's just me.

Umm technically I'm seen as an only child but I have a half sister. She's 7 years older than I am. We're related by dad and well I've only seen her about 7 times in my lifetime. It's my mom's fault long story short.

She's currently in Iraq :/

I have one EXTREMELY annoyingly little brother, Jamie (2 yrs old)... he's always getting on my nerves. seriously.

.. A little sister, Katie (4 yrs old)... she's ok most of the time...

And a older sister, Jessica (14 years old)... Sarcastic, sometimes moody, but ok to have around..

I wish i was an only child... or at least only one sibling.

Fairy my two youngest siblings are adopted. They're from China. They're both four (not twins though) and I have a ten year old brother. He drives me crazy a lot but we can get along really well when we cooperate. We used to play together all the time but less now although I've been trying to do more stuff with him. The two little ones can be adorable but other times I want to strangle them. Seems like it's like that for a lot of people lol.






Nicky Potter, I hope she's doing well. My dad is currently in Afghanistan for the Navy Reserve and my cousin had been in Iraq two or three times.

Yeah. I have 3 little sisters, all of whom are a pain in the rear. One is 10, and wants to be exactly like me, and has taken on my sulkey, rude, sarcastic teenage temperment. The thing is, her's is worse. She constantly tells me she hates me, and calls me a bad singer (a blow to my pride, since I actually do sing --- well, I might add.).

My 5 year old sister is a goody-goody, so will do anything -- even lie -- to be on mom and dad's "good side".

My almost-two-year old sister is what you would imagine. Terrible twos, times 10.

I'm, of course, the oldest, so I get most of the blame when something goes wrong, and gets to babysit these little monsters... Unfortunately, I love all of them very much...

Sadie

I have two half-sbilings, though I've only met one of them.

Peyton is about 15 years younger than I am and Bailey...is 17 years younger I think, but I'm not positive.

When Bailey was born my dad didn't call and tell me. I knew his - whatever she is- was pregnant again though. I'll probably never meet her now because he never called and frankly that was the last straw for me.

Sadly, because he is no longer a part of my life, neither are they.

I have one little sister, who's about a year and a half younger than me. I usually get the old "you should be a good example" and all that jazz, but at least now they can yell at her for once, because she's pregnant. And only 19 now and at least she's engaged to the guy who did it. But yeah, that's an interesting situation...

I have a younger sister, Katie, she's 4 years old. She's very VERY loud, & mostly annoying but sometimes she's okay.

Another younger sister Sarah, she's 12 years old. Sometimes annoying but I have to put up with her bugging

A little brother, Jamie, he just turned 3 years old, two weeks ago. He's the most annoying- much more annoying than my other siblings. He's always poking me


I'm honey~pie (Sarah)'s sister lol.

I was an only child for ten years until Liam came along. We were Ok with each other until he reached the "Terrible Twos"! Desmond was born during that time and now Liam is three and Desmond is one! They are pretty cool but they beat each other (and me!) up alot so my mom has to seperate them all the time!

I'm the eldest of three girls, I'm 23, our Middle is 22 and the Youngest is 19. We never got along until our Middle sister moved out at 18. Since then we all get along just fine. She's getting married in less then two weeks. I've got a family and our Youngest still lives at home. We're as different as can be but we have the best times together. Put us in a room and there'll be laughter for hours. Sometimes we have major fights too and it's usually two against one. Mostly me and the Youngest against the Middle, she's somewhat of a very selfish person. Our Youngest is lazy and won't do anything with her life. It drives us all mad and is the reason for some of the fights. She wants the world but won't do a thing to get it. But I guess that's the way with most young kids these days....although 19 isn't that young. I wish she was more like our Middle sister in the fact that straight out of High School our Middle went into a Traineeship and has worked in Government since then. Our Youngest has had many casual jobs but won't hold them for longer then 6months. She's the type that prefers to sit on her computer all day. I used to be like that but I was studying at Tafe at the same time so I was at least doing something constructive.

Anyway, me and the Youngest are supposed to be singing our sister down the aisle. Her Fiancee wanted his sisters to do it too but they can't sing to save their lives, and they live in Melbourne so it's not like they could rehearse with us. We think singing at the wedding is a bad idea though.....how can you sing a beautiful song while crying? Doesn't work, so I guess the church will be filled with breaking voices. I'm hoping after the wedding she might settle down and stop being so selfish. I hope! It'd be nice to connect with her on a more even level. Maybe when she has a baby we might.

I believe every child needs a sibling and if I can convince my partner, our little baby will get one. But it might take a while.

I have 2 siblings, myself being the oldest. I'm 14, and my brother, the middle child, is 12. Our littlest sister is 7, and she's a sweetie. I just got her starting to read HP actually, and I'm so excited. They usually try to gang up on me just because they know how to twist my nerves to their last breaking point.

He's pretty mature for his age socially, but otherwise, he's the same kind of 12 year old, dirt loving boy. My sister is pretty much a miniature me, and it's adorable, but annoying sometimes. Either way, once you get siblings, you can never live without them.

I have one little sister! She is 4 years younger than me and she looks a lot like me when I was ten. She is wounderful and I love her so much! I can't think of a life without her.

I have 3 siblings, 2 sisters and 1 brother.

I'm the youngest in my family and I'm really close to my oldest sister, but not very close to my second oldest sister. I also play with my brother, but the relationship is kind of hard because he has autism, but I still love having him around.

I wouldn't be myself if it weren't for my siblings. I love them and I'm so happy they're around me.

I have siblings. A sister who is almost 21 and her name is Kerrie. A twin who is…well the same age as me and her name is Jade (K.Luipn_werewolf) And a half-sister Megan who is 11 - but I don’t call her half-sister, I see her as a sister.

I could of had another sister or maybe a brother but mom drank it to death. She didn’t know she was pregnant and my dad had just left for another woman. Seriouslysirius if you see this post please do not tell anyone in the family…I’m not meant to know so please don’t say anything, thanks cousin.

I have one biological brother. He's 9 (we're six years apart) and going into fourth grade. He's adorable, we're really close for brother and sister. (: I'm making him read HP; I got the first book for him for his birthday.

My mom also recently remarried, so now I have two stepbrothers as well, one 12 and one 9. The twelve year old thinks he's so great because, well, he's 12, and the 9 year old I'm convinced hates me. o.o But me and Jonas (the older) get along pretty well, though we fight a lot.
