Since young I has always been the least smartest between my siblings.I had always struggle while my siblings do alright or do well.I had always been the weakest one between my siblings :-/
How are you when your young,and is there any different now that you had grown older?
I think I was happier, I was a really happy child. That can come back, I haven’t lost hope.
I was good up til around age 5 or 6. It is a hopeful indicator.
Me and my sisters were talking several months ago and we were commenting that each of us don’t even remember each other as we grew up. We all grew up in the same house but we were always all off doing our own thing and we didn’t really hang out together much. I remember us fighting a lot as kids.
I didn’t compete with my sisters, I was off with my own friends. We were very close in age and as we became adults we stopped the fighting and became very close. They both matured while I didn’t but they included me in everything they could with them and their friends. My path in life has been very different then theirs. They both got married, they both graduated college and got pretty good jobs. They both are very confident people and have had many great life experiences from traveling through Europe to living in nice homes.
I do not begrudge them anything, we got dealt different cards in life but that’s life. I feel like I am very lucky in my life to have them and they have supported me and helped me since I was 19.`
I’m the oldest… so that had some privilege… not much but some.
I have 3 younger brothers and the youngest of the family is my sis.
When I was a teen… the two brothers below me and I would fight and fight and fight. All three of us trying to get the big chair… the most respect.
My youngest brother and my kid sis… being closer in age had their own war and peace going on without us. I didn’t know which was worse… when they were fighting each other … or when they were on the same side causing chipmunk trouble.
Right now… I have my sis… and two of my brothers on my side… that’s more then it used to be… I’m happy it got better.
Good luck and don’t worry what your siblings do… you’re on your own path…
