15 things you will definitely relate to if you have a sibling
We celebrate National Siblings Day on 10th April
If you have a brother or sister, then growing up you probably didn't always see eye-to-eye, but you might be closer than ever as an adult.
Whatever age you are, here are a number of things that you can probably relate to if you have a sibling, as we celebrate National Siblings Day on Sunday 10th April 2022.
15 things you will definitely relate to if you have a sibling:
1. You had to hide the treats so they wouldn't eat them
And if that didn't work you'd secretly hate them for the rest of that day!
2. You learned how to forgive and forget because of them
They stole your best toy and then you were forced to get along as you had to live together.
3. You always had someone to play with growing up.
Even if they weren't your first choice!
4. You covered for each other
The solidarity of not admitting who did it led to phrases from parents like 'Oh did a ghost do it?'
5. You felt your parents liked them more
Everyone always thinks the other one is getting preferential treatment.
6. You had plenty of scraps when you were younger
You'd never dream of fighting a friend yet engaged in quite a few with your sibling.
7. The oldest tested the boundaries
Sometimes there were consequences but it paved the way for the younger sibling to have more fun.
8. They knew exactly how to wind you up
And they loved doing it!
9. The battle for the front seat
Many of arguments were had over who was sitting in the front of the car.
10 The rivalry never really disappears
Even as adults there's still a silent competition.
11. You had to learn to share
Nothing was ever truly only yours (hence hiding the treats).
12. You will have a bond like no other
You are able to love them even if they drive you crazy!
13. If you were younger you got their old clothes
Even if they didn't fit properly!
14. You were subjected to awkward poses in family photos
You still can't look at some of these!
15. Finally, the youngest got away with everything
"It wasn't me!"
Sound accurate?
