Hm not really a question here so I am figuring you are talking about the experience of being an older sister. (big sister) I enjoy my role as a big sister because errors and mistakes that I have done I can notify my younger sister not to do the same things I have.Also i find it fun because even though im older my younger sibling and I think so much alike. Oh yea as a big sister I always got more allowance then my younger siblings and certain special little things that come with being older. (i'm talking about rewards from my parents)

its harder due to more responsiblity but its fun for the most part.

I am a big sister and for right now my big sister status has been removed by my younger siblings. It's ok though because I'd rather be a mom to my kids than try to be a big sister.

I am, I have two younger siblings. It is fun, but when I was younger I had to look after them a lot...

I am a big sister. The eldest and the only girl in the family. A sort of surrogate Mom to my younger siblings. It was a good training ground for me when it was my turn to be a mother. As well as earning the love and respect of my brothers.I agree that it is hard being one. Patience was tested sometimes beyond what I can take as a person but it produce a closeness amongst us.

No, I am not a big sister. I am the little sister, my older sister is the big sister and we have a 8 year age gap so she was a big sister to me and took care of me. :) Congrats on being a big sister. It is hard work!

It is very hard indeed because people expect you to be responsible and stuff. Plus, in our culture here, the eldest child has a responsibility to help their parents put their other siblings to school/college.
