Do you get scolded by the wrong doings of your siblings?

Being the eldest, yup I do. That is why it's hard to cover up your siblings wrong doings cause if it turns ugly and your parents find out about it, your also in trouble. Lol. It's always hard to be in the middle of your parents and siblings specially if your the eldest, cause your parents hold you responsible for your siblings. On the other hand your siblings confide to you because they can't confide with your parents. Have you experienced this? What I do is I just accept what ever scoldings there is and then support my sibling who's gotten in trouble in the first place.

what a nice an good sister you are.if you asked me then my answer would be based on the situations or the wrongdoing itself.if she is not supposed to be scolded then i will consider to let myself get that.if she should get that in a first place, then most probably i will be the one who scold her then.

When I was younger, this was something that I always had to deal with. However, now that I'm grown it isn't something that I have to deal with nearly as often as I did when I was younger. My brother was the worst about getting me into trouble when we were younger. He would smack himself on the arm and then holler that I was hitting him and I would end up getting in trouble. Of course, my mother finally wised up to the situation one da when she saw him smack himself.

i am the middle person in my family and my sis(bigger than me ),will sometimes scolds me if i dont do anything quickly or when we go market and if i dont select any thing quickly. but i like her all in my life,when she advices me, when i am wrong. but as elder sis to my brother, i will not scold my brother ,as he is calm going man.we both are classmates when we are at our studies. he got more marks than me sometimes and so he will feel that he is bigger than me. now i feel my sister and her husband ,as my parents and takes advices from them when i am in needy.

it's a nice thing to be there with your siblings and let you know what they are really up to. yes,it's really hard to open up to parents for some times,especially when you know they will really get mad.you just have to cover up for their mistakes. whatever the reason is,at least you are there for your siblings. but as you said,it's really hard to be in the middle of your parents and your siblings. in the long run,they will know the truth behind all those things why you did those. but it's a wonderful thing that parents would always understand each and every one of their children as well.

I'm also the eldest in our family. When my parents get mad at my siblings, I join them too in telling them of their wrong doings. But If ever I am partly included in making mistakes, I will just keep quiet or say sorry at once. But If I am innocent and its because my parents are mad at my siblings and I was just "included" in the sermon, I will try and explain my side. :)
