Hi sleepy1
I am the younger Sister in the family. My Sister is older as you have guessed. She lives in the USA but we are very close. She is my best friend. Always has been, always will be. We email each other at least once a day. No, I am happy just having the one Sister. She is all I have ever needed and has always looked out for me as I have for her.
only child !
Hi sleepy , I am one of 8 children. My parents lost 2 as babies but 6 of us grew to adulthood . I grew up with 3 sisters and 2 brothers . I am the youngest girl by 6 years and was the second youngest of the 6 , sandwiched between 2 boys. We lost an eldest sister 3 years ago and big brother last year . Us remaining siblings are very close.
I just wish I lived closer to my middle sister as we miss each other so.:-)

hi sleeps how aare u mate ?

im the yougest of four brothers
Hi sleepy, I have an older brother, haven't seen him for 10 years, never want to, he is a total ******, I am the middle one and I have a younger sister who I adore, I would die for her. happy as I am, would have been nice to have had more brothers and sisters though.
wow smudge , thought 8 of us was a lot of children , but 10 !!! Our next door neighbours when I was a child had 10 .
Yes - there were 10 of us bigmama!

Needless to say, Mum & Dad didn't have a telly until I was 5 years old - hence the last one being born in 1952!

I'm so proud of all my family & although we weren't that well off when young, we were all loved, polite, well fed, clean & nicely dressed. Oh & not one of us ever brought the police to the door! God help us if we had have done! ;o}

Question Author
we all live close to each other not many rows . so its not all bad but i would not want a big family 2 kids for me is enough .
I am the youngest of 7 as well.3 brothers and 3 sisters. The oldest sister is step, the rest are half brothers and sisters, but we have never referred to them as this, they have and always will be my brothers and sisters :)
I have pretty much got on alright with all of them apart from one who I call my evil sister >:-}
But these days even we get on her (her fault we never did btw!!lol)
Thanks to all us kids, my parents have 9 grandchildren, and I intend on having at least one more, they just dont know it yet!! lol
I am but an only child. Was I spoilt???? Hell no.
I am the youngest of 2 children, my brother being 4 years older than me. He has a great life, is a big success in business, but I only rarely see him as he lives half way round the globe and doesn't keep in touch much. We only see him every three or so years for a flying visit. Sad, as our Mum is now 90 and feels that he couldn't really care less about her or me. Sad especially as he was always her "golden boy". His attitude is that of "out of sight, out of mind". He has never been here for us in traumatic times, i.e. my own cancer, my son's cancer and death. He stopped being a brother to me when he married his 2nd wife. Mind you, he can be generous when he does turn up, but this doesn't make up for his general lack of concern for us. We should have been 8 children, but 5 died at birth and one lived for only a few weeks. Strangely, his wife comes from a very large family and they get plenty of help and attention. Sad really! So I wish my other siblings had lived and we would have been a larger family.

I have a half-brother who grew up with his mother, so we're not close, and a sister, who's mentally handicapped; we're not close either.

I was the youngest, but always had to be the 'understanding' one, which annoyed me no end as a child.

Since I don't know what it would have been like to have a close brother or sister, I don't miss it!
I would have preffered a brother but as I have a gay sister I would have to make do with that Im afraid! Dont get on very well with her find her very judgemental (or is that just mental?!). Would have been nice to have some one looking after me for a change as I am the youngest .
