Module 6 Assignment 5
One of the strongest continuous relationships I had throughout middle childhood was
with my brother, Kevin. Kevin was born a few months before my 7th birthday. We are 6 and ½
years apart. After Kevin was born I was confused that a new baby took up so much of my parents
time and that I was now expected to spend most of my time playing alone. However, once my
brother was able to crawl, I discovered that I had a new playmate. Every day after school, I
would come home to play with my brother. Since I was older I was usually the one who choose
what to play, meaning that we played a lot of Barbie.
Having a younger brother has taught me that sibling relationships are different than any
other relationship. A sibling is someone who understands you in a way that your parents don’t,
and unlike friends, sibling relationships are permanent. I have learned many things from having a
younger sibling, such as how to share, how to be a good leader, and how to give advice. I hope
that my brother has also learned many things from me. I liked how chapter 10 touches on sibling
relationships, since most children have siblings, and I feel that the order in which a child is born
has an impact as well. I always thought that my brother was lucky being younger because he had
me to watch, so when he went to school he already knew what to do, whereas I had to figure out
everything on my own without the guidance of an older sibling. I realize however, that this has
taught me many leadership and problem solving skills. Overall, I am grateful to have a sibling
and for everything that having a sibling has taught me.
