Very interesting thread !! :thumbs:
I am the ' :babyroll: ' of the family - two older sisters, then my brother (who passed away some 4 yrs ago) and then me.
My brother, being the only son - was spoilt, and me being the youngest was always said to be spoilt the most - and it's true !! Never even had a hiding in my life !!!
My two sisters are 12 and 8 years older than me - so they started working when I was still in Primary - and even they spoilt me with loads of love, affection, clothes, etc.
But I guess I didn't turn out too bad - I'm a free spirit and a bit eccentric, that's true - but whenever something comes up - I'm the level-headed one, have lots of patience and my sisters usually phones me for help or guidance - and I tend to be the one who 'mothers' them.
So the family placements do get reversed some of the time ......
