I have 2 siblings an older brother and an older sister. I'm the youngest among us.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of having siblings?For me some advantages of having siblings is because you can have someone to talk to and someone you can ask questions for your assignments or if you're boring you have someone you can play with.
The disadvantages of having siblings are having rivalries in everything like things,parents and time. And also when they're better than you, your parents tend to compare each other or having favoritism.

i have a lot of siblings..im the youngest of our 7 siblings and its nice and tough at times.good thing is that they pamper u and bad thing is that they feel ill be spoilt if they pamper me much so i dont get that too and they expect me to live up to thier expectastions and thats worse.While parents soemtimes tend to make comparisions wid the other siblings and thats what i hate most of all but it sure is a lot of helpin hand to have lots of siblings.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Ranie19 (390)   ranked 137 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

Yah! You're right! Having alot of siblings can be very helpful as well especially in household task/chores. And sometimes they do pampering alot that's the one thing I hate about it. I get tired of it sometimes. But I prefer those things than being alone and no one to talk to.

I have 2 elder sisters and a younger brother. We always get together good but still sometimes there are times that we can't avoid arguing over small things. I think the advantages of having siblings is: I get someone to help me in my schoolworks, someone can lend me money, I can confide them my problems and my secrets, and I have someone to talk to, when I'm feeling bad. The disadvantages of having sibling I think is, I have rival with my dad. I'm not always the favorite daughter and I'm the underdog at home so... I think in my own opinion, It is also happy to be the only child.=)


myLot reputation of 96/100. Ranie19 (390)   ranked 137 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

Ahhh!.. that's okay.. Sometimes I really don't like those situations in some families there's favoritism..

Thanks for your comment! Have a nice day!:)

Hi Ranie!^_^ Im happy to say that I am an only child.^_^ I maybe be spoiled a bit but I am definitely not a brat.LOL The advantages and disadvantages of being an only? Well, an advantage is that Ive learned to be independent from a young age. Ive learned to make use of my imagination just to be entertained throughout the day. Most of all Ive learned how to make friends anywhere anyday.^_^ Another advantage is that I dont have anyone to fight over trivial things like the remote, chores, tv channel, things being moved, and most of all snooping siblings. A disadvantage? You are right about one thing its nice to have a sibling to have someone to come with you when you dont want to go by yourself. I didnt grow up by myself though. We've lived close to my cousins when I was a kid so I always have playmates. I didnt miss out on being a child just because Im an only. It has made me a quiet and serious type of person but my crazy and kooky side comes out when Im close and very comfortable with the people Im with.^_^


myLot reputation of 96/100. Ranie19 (390)   ranked 137 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

Sometimes I thought that being the only child is very hard but when you said about all the advantages of being the only child made me realize that it was okay and it's still fun!

Thanks for your comment! Have a Nice Day!:)


myLot reputation of 95/100. bjcyrix (1656)   ranked 1,744 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

LOL Glad I made you see some part of my life or the lives of other only children too. Thanks for the mark.^_^

I have one sister that is younger and unfortunately there are no real advantages for me only disadvantages. She and i don't get along really at all we are complete opposites. She is a selfish self centered person and really not a very good person at all.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Ranie19 (390)   ranked 137 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

Hahaha!! I think, as one of the youngest among us, I think she's just childish. Kids these days are very annoying and still doesn't know anything about life. Let's just wait for her to realize alot of things when she grew older.

Thanks for the comment! Have a Nice Day!:)


myLot reputation of 86/100. Timothy31 (471)  7 months ago

Trust me she isn't gonna grow up. She's already 27yrs old.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Ranie19 (390)   ranked 137 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

WOw!.. really?!... I thought she was just a kid!.. Well I don't know about that.. but let's just wish that she'll realize something in the end...


myLot reputation of 86/100. Timothy31 (471)  7 months ago

Yeah we keep hoping she will but we doubt it will ever happen.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Ranie19 (390)   ranked 137 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

hahaha... that's okay!:)

Well, if there is favouritism with your parents then there's something wrong coz i don't know of ANY parent that plays favourites within their children - they are very wrong for having a favourite if that's what is happening.

I am the oldest of 3 but think now (at almost 27) siblings are the best things in the world. Ok so when you're growing up there can be problems with not getting along & stuff but once you're older & understand better, you learn to appreciate them more & they'll always be there. I would hate to be an only child coz if your parents were to pass away, you'd be along, no siblings to spend time with & no more immediate family. You'd be pretty much alone which would be awful i think.

I think that if there is favouritism & so on then you being the youngest would be the one getting the most attention anyway since you're the last & baby of the family so the advantage is all yours!


myLot reputation of 96/100. Ranie19 (390)   ranked 137 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

Yah! That's what I hate about it. Good thing that my dad isn't. And I felt as well that being an only is really hard. When you said what if your parents died and you were the only kid. I thought of it too and realize that it's hard as well.

Yes i have an elder sister who is 10 years elder to me. So i have had no chance of feeling any kind of rivalry or favouritism. She has always been very helpful to me and even now i take lots of advices from her regarding my work and many other things. This relationship should always be kept healthy as brothers and sisters are your best friends...


myLot reputation of 96/100. Ranie19 (390)   ranked 137 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

Wow! Congratulations for having a good sister! All of us are in college already and I'm a freshman. I always ask my sister what are the things to remember or to do on college.

You're right these kinds of relationship must be treasured because it's one and only and it should not be wreck just because of favoritism or rivalry.

i have 3 younger siblings, two guys and 1 pretty little lady.
I love having siblings since you get to have lots of crazy people in your house and you have someone to talk to with anything. Hmmm disadvantage would probably that you would have to share your favorite food with them.
LOL


myLot reputation of 96/100. Ranie19 (390)   ranked 137 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

Hahaha! Sometimes I find it hard also especially when it's your favorite food and you tend to half it so all of you can eat. But it's quite fun because you'll find it funny... hehehe...

I am the oldest of 5 and I have two brothers and two sisters. I can only find advantages in having them, no disadvantages. Sometimes we see things differently, but that doesn't stop us from being friends, even though we live far apart from one another.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Ranie19 (390)   ranked 137 out of 2,972 in family  7 months ago

That's nice! It means that you really all love each other! You're right sometimes we find it hard to deal with them but that's the part where we can learn something and that's being patient w/ them especially w/ the younger ones...
