okay we've had a fun four years or so of basing all online discussion of siblinghood on one article about eldest daughter syndrome but i think it's time for something new! anyone want to look up the statistics on sibling-on-sibling abuse? i'm sure it won't disrupt anyone's ego in the slightest

#biting.#i am THIS close to just telling the people saying 'actually middle/younger children ARE all awful privileged snivelling little brats tho'#that they're just doing abuse apologism #like ya whatever have your griping have your jokes and petty rivalries #but like. after a point. if you take it remotely seriously you are just justifying aggression towards a vulnerable group of children. lol #mandatory fucking disclaimer that my family is fine actually and i am not bringing my own baggage to the table. unlike most of u #BUT i do personally KNOW a number of people with extremely shitty middle/younger child experiences #so like #whenever i say this i'm defending People I Actually Know #one of whom was definitely for real abused by her elder brother. and ostracised for talking about it.#and my patience is wearing so fucking thin.
