Hey guys!! for those who don't know me, im radhika. I just wanted to know what your opinion was on this. Im the youngest in my family, just me and my sister, and i think that it is harder being younger. Especially if you have indian parents, because basically, you have to do oeverything your elder sibling did, and better. And if you dont, you get in trouble and lectured like " your ... got this on their finals, why didn't you? " or "... did so well in school when they were your age"
(though i do better than my sis😆) lol, but still, just wanted to know what you think. Maybe if you are the oldest, you have a dif view

Hey Radz, I picked 'neither'. I'm the oldest and have one younger sis. I think being older the person always gets to hear that it's his/her fault even if it wasn't. I personally always got scolded by my dad when my sis did something wrong. And I don't have someone who can help me in school.

But being younger...my sis always get's smaller rooms (haha) and often gets my old clothes (though she buys lots of new stuff). And here it's the fact that I can help her if she's stuff in school she doesn't understand as I had all those things already. It's a little unfair, haha.

I can see both POV's tbh. But as I'm the oldest I'd complain and say it's easier to be the younger sibling lol. Yes, they sometimes get my old clothes and I have heard mum&dad tell her that "when ..(me) was your age, she did so well and she knew all this stuff already.." lol but I swear they get away with like murder! Everything is meant to be the elder sibling's fault cos the younger sibling(s) are meant to be like our responsibility or something! Just an observation but the younger siblings are defo usually the more spoilt one's! :@

I'm the youngest of four. I think i'm not too spoilt, well maybe I am but I always get the blame my two older sisters are wickid as in evil, they grass and chat it up with my parents. I think it sucks being the youngest, theres not one day I'm not in trouble, every minute bamn I get back on my sisters. My brother is older, He's spoilt aswell, realyyy spoilt, he got a BMW 3 series for christmas and sold it, brought a bigger car and sold that too. So yeah, being the youngest sucks. LOL grat topic

I'm the middle child *sigh*
my younger brother is spoiled, hahah and my older brother is amazing :)
I would love to be the oldest sibling 'cause you have more authority ;) ahah, like .. if my older bro wants to watch TV, no one argues with him on what he's watching or whatever. My younger brother...he gets everything :P but he knows his limits I guess :/
& then theres me (A) oh well since im the only daughter ;) im favoured ;)
