And where are you in the pecking order. I have 2 younger sisters and 1 younger brother. I definitely act like an oldest; a responsible good girl. The two youngest are totally irresponsible. They also have a different mother. The middle girl has “middle child syndrome “ to a very extreme degree and could be Eeyore. Everyone is against her and life is so unfair. Nature or nurture?
 
There's 4 of us too. I'm the youngest with 2 older brothers and an older sister. Lot of crazy birth order stuff goes on too :)
 
4, I'm smack in the middle of a complicated half-sibling situation. My Dad had two children from two previous marriages before my Mom, my brother is 56ish (we are estranged), and my sister is 54. My Mother then remarried eventually after my Father passed (he was much older that her) and she had twins when I was a senior in high school. They are now almost 17, I am 34.
 
Late older brother, and estranged older sister. I hadn't even thought abut my sister until yesterday.
 
I have 2 sisters and I am in the middle
 
Two older brothers, there is 18 years between the oldest and me. I am the baby.
 
Two of us. I’m the oldest. My sister and I are 27 months apart. We’re very different. She’s much more quiet than I am and shy at first. She’s brilliant and very kind. I love her so much. I’m very worried for her now as both she and her dh are considered essential and working full time. She has severe asthma. But I digress. We are different in many ways but alike in other ways. She’s always there for me and vice versa.

In the 90s.

I only have 1 brother, I’m the eldest at 20 months older. We are completely different and sometimes fight like cats and dogs to this day! However, we are also the “only sibling” to each other so we are also fairly close and talk to each other a few times a week despite having families of our own.
 
older sis and younger brother.
 
I'm the eldest of 6 girls. :D And for sure act like the oldest. My closest sister is 7 years younger and my baby sister is 14 years younger. I did a lot of babysitting when they were younger. My closest sister has a lot of eldest tendencies :)
 
I am the oldest of two girls and sis is 5 years younger than me. She was my show and tell for kindergarten. We get along great now but up until I moved out she was the biggest PITA on the planet not to mention spoiled too.
 
Three, and I'm the youngest of four.

An elder sister and a younger brother.

DK :))
 
my sister Rosy and I
i am 5 years older
we are completly different
she is even a liberal now
she's a bit of a cow
a hypa highly strung premadonna
and mum's favourite
we are estranged most of the time

i texted her yesterday to see how they were

edit
we reminisced about mum making cheeese scones in the bread strikes and also growing up listening to Kenny Rodgers
my sister went to buy bread which was sold out so she brought chocolate hot cross buns instead

this could mean we are entering a period of cordial polite relations

We have a very small family due to several people being only children and my only uncle not marrying. My younger sister is hugely precious to me as a result, we didn’t get on well as children but are now each other’s main support and confidant. I don’t know how I would manage without her. Various recent crises plus the corona virus threat have made me realise how important family is.
 
I have one older brother. We have had ups and downs throughout our lives. Now, however, we are closer due to losing our parents. I think we both realize it’s just him and me now.
As long as we don’t speak politics (he’s kind of a radical in that area) we are good. and I am thankful for that.
 
I actually have two siblings, a little brother and a little sister, but I’ve never met my little sister. I’m estranged from my biological dad and she’s his daughter.

My little brother is 11 years younger than me. He always felt more like my baby than my sibling. He went everywhere with me on my hip. He’s too big for that now at 6’3”.
 
One little sister. 8 years younger than me. I adore her. We're completely different but very complimentary and share certain similar interests so we love each other's company.

When I moved houses I had to buy one with an extra room for her in case she wants to stay over because we used to live 10 min walk from each other.

Seriously love her so much and will wipe her arse when she's too old and weak to do it herself. I've told her she's set for life as long as I'm alive and lucid. I'll always take care of her.
 
I am 2nd of 4, BGBG. I have always been the responsible/intentional one which was good because my parents were definitely not. Older brother has lived his life as a hippie/flake (at his most stable), unable to get over our childhood.
My younger brother disengaged from the family 20+ years ago. I miss him but pray he has found happiness.
My younger sister is very emotionally immature and chose to repeat the dysfunction in her own family. It is sad, we talk but it’s all shallow chatter. She probably thinks we are close.
I don’t judge any of my siblings...we had a hard life growing up and odds are against getting out unscarred.

Oh, I also have a half brother I have never met. He is a junior or senior in high school So 33? years younger than me. My dad thinks it is his secret but I have always known. His mother was friends with my sister in high school and several years later...Well, my mind will not let me consider how that child came to be conceived.
 
My brother died when he was 6, so I am now an only child. I wasn't raised as an only child having said that, I was raised as someone who had a sibling that died, I have no memories (only photos) of him at all because I am younger than he was.
 
I am one of four. Twin brothers and a sister. My brothers were almost 21 years older than me, and my sister 20. We never shared a home. My mom divorced my dad when she found out she was pregnant with me. I have never been close to them at all. Each of them have a child a few months older than I am. One of my brothers recently died. It is a long story of weird family dynamics.
 
I’m the middle child, with two brothers.
My melancholic streak runs deep and wide, but rather than try to fight my nature, I try to harness it to enhance my romantic worldview.
 
2 brothers and I'm in the middle. We are pretty different. We talk a little and get together over the holidays. I only have 1 niece from my brothers.
I was always the good responsible child.
 
Nevermind siblings... my good lady mentioned the other day that apparently a word for 'a collection of nieces and nephews' is 'niblings', which I think is a cool name! :D

We now call out 'niblings!' when we want them all to come into the room :lol: lol
 
Five siblings. Four brothers, one sister. I’m second oldest but oldest girl. BGBGBB. II was always the responsible one and the one left in charge. Some are closer than others but we try to get together at least at Christmas, sometimes more often.
 
I have 2. I am the middle child :)
 
I am the oldest of 4.
 
number 2 of 4, older sister, 2 younger brothers, older sister died, first younger brother died. My baby brother and I are the only ones left.
