Growing up as the eldest sibling has its perks as well as downsides. Sometimes you can pull out the seniority card and boss around the house while other times you just want to trade places with one of your younger siblings.
Here we have compiled a few things that every elder sibling has to face — and of course they consider these to be true!
Parents were much stricter with you than they have been with your siblings
The countless curfews and appointed hours to go out — Rules and restrictions are a struggle of every eldest sibling. As compared to younger siblings, parents were much more strict with you and this seems incredibly unfair because the younger one always gets the advantage of “chota haina woh.”
You are always followed around by little siblings which is VERY ANNOYING
Younger siblings has a habit of getting clingy with you — in a cute way ofcourse, but oh God it’s annoying, STAY AWAY!
As an older sibling you must have gotten used to your little brother or sister tagging along with you everywhere and anywhere.
You get blamed for everything
As an older sibling, you have got a lot of pressure and expectations from you towers day by day! You are expected to set a splendidly best example in everything that you do. And tragically even after then if your little brother does something wrong that you once did in the past, your parents always got this strong claim that “they learned it from you.” (What?!?!? Why?!?!?)
You love to prank your younger siblings
Playing stupid pranks on your younger siblings is one of the best elder sibling things. Because they will believe you about almost anything!
Can you guess what the most common one is?
“You know you are adopted! We took you out from a dustbin”
You are the backup support for your younger siblings
No matter how annoying these kids are but they always turn to you when faced with any challenge. And even if they drive you up all crazy, they know you will be there for them because you LOVE THEM!
Stay cool, you have got this mate!
