I'm the oldest, so I've never felt how t is having an older brother or sister. It must be nice to have somebody older that I could depend on, have a friend to talk about, etc. I have to do it by myself as the oldest and I have to give good examples to my little brother and sister.
What about you ?? is your older brother/sister a threat or a good friend?? share me your experience

I am also the oldest. I've got a younger brother. But, it does not make me get more and do less. My parents always teach us to bare the same responsibility and receive the same punishment. I think that's fair enough, and it makes both of us grow with equality.

That's quite nice. It must be quite hard for you to give a good example to your younger brother. I have a younger sister that could kill me just by teaching her math. Such a tiresome work just teaching your younger bro/sis

I have brothers and sisters all both older and younger. It's tons of fun being the young one! I know about the good example complex the oldest one has, and I would not want that job I'm telling you. Our oldest brother always complains about it that he has to be responsible all the time. Then I'm like "sucks to be you!" Then we laugh. Well, whatever our places are in the family, one thing's for sure. Life would suck a lot more without brothers and sisters. Blood related or otherwise.

No he's lame and serious I'm the funny one LOL! Just Kidding! 
Yeah we like to joke around and just laugh off the problems that come with the roles we have to play in the family. It's much better than fighting and arguing. Just accept and laugh it off we say. And you are right it is fun to have company! Enjoy them as much as you can while you can!

It sounds like a fun life. having a friend to share anything. My brother and sister always get on me and sometimes getting on my nerves. But without them, life could have been worse, I think hehehe

What a funny brother you have. It must be fun having that kind and not the 'overprotecting' kind hehehe. I agree with you. I sometimes think about having only me, without brother or sister, but when I see how active they're, I throw away that thought. It's fun to have more company

i'm the oldest as well. i always wish that i have an older sister, or even an older brother. i guess that's why i like hanging out with my friends. i only have brothers, i've always thought i wanted at least one sister. when i hang out with my friends, it feels like i have some.

Me too. I like hanging out better tha with my brother or sisters. They always give me a headache and hanging out gives me a refreshing rest after I handle my brother and sister. an older sister must be nice.

One thing for sure, elder brother is bossy. Even though we're all grown up and he's married, he never change one bit. I don't have an elder sister since I am the eldest daughter. But he could be protective and really care about us. We can depend on him when we need him too. I guess that's the good point. Until he can be over protective sometimes.

That's one thing I dislike having overprotecting brother. I know that he has good purpose, but we're not kids anymore and we could take care of ourselves. What do you think about older sister?? I think it's quite fun

I am the eldest just like you...As you said it would have been nice to experience to have an older sis/bro that you can count on. I know how tiring it is sometimes to be the eldest among your siblings coz you've got to be strong whatever it takes as to set example to your younger siblings. But I think sometimes it's good to show them your weaknesses too for them to somehow learn to stand on their own.

I agree. It's quite tiresome just to show the youngsters how to behave. hehehe. Luckily, my brother has grown up and I don't have to teach him anything. He just have to find his own way. Would you like to have older bro/sis?? I wish that I could but I can't hehehe
