What was your position (in terms of birth) in the family? How did that experience help you become, or hinder you from becoming, a successful adult?

Hello and welcome to my blog.Well,I bumped into this contest on Ladies of hive yesterday and I'll try to do justice to this question. It's not my first time participating though. So let's go!!...

I'm from a nuclear family, a family of four(4), myself, my mum, dad and one sibling who happens to be my younger brother. So obviously, I'm the first born female in my family. Well, being a first born comes with alot of responsibilities and in a situation where we are just two children in the family, it means I've got a whole lot of duties and stuff to attend to.🤷
While growing up I really didn't think of the responsibilities I would take up as the oldest child, I just felt it was of a good advantage cause I get to take bigger shares, in food😅😅, money and the rest. Funny right? But it turns out to be a facade. When I turned 18, I promised myself I was gonna be financially independent @ 21 and thankfully, I'm getting to that point.
I'm in my 20's now,and I have a
much clearly Insight as to how much work I've got to do in order to acquire that aim. It made me reason logically and challenge myself. Yes,I have a kid bro and our age difference is 7yrs and he's my everything, My parents are already in their late 50's and 40's , so who's up next to aid them on handling most duties? Yea! It's Me!!right?.

Thankful, I got a skill as fashion designer, I also got the opportunity to learn forex, digital marketing, hive and this has been a very interesting experience to becoming a successful adult.

Well that's it for today!!
And I would like @piusjnr88 and @prechi to join the contest.

The Eldest tend to develop that sense of responsibility sooner but not always. To me it seemed natural as I tend to my own children and work habits.

@kerrislravenhill that's true cause mine came sooner😆

It is very nice to read about this topic. I have three brothers and I am the only female and the second to be born. It is interesting to see how each family is different and without a doubt the time of birth influences the role of each one within the family nucleus.

You are quite young and it is good that you have enough tools to be an independent adult, but it is also lympho to have a brother. Sometimes we see it as a burden or as a responsibility, but the truth is that brothers are a blessing. I really liked your post 🤗

@marbrym Having a brother expecially the annoying type could be sometimes frustrating but there's always this hidden love whereby you are overprotective of him

My older brother always used to say a phrase regarding my other younger brother who used to cause a bit of trouble: "he's not a burden, he's my brother" is a very cute phrase right? Now we are all independent adults and almost all of us have a family and each one has taken responsibility for their own and. at the same time we support our parents. Sometimes those brothers mature, but others don't, but that doesn't change who we are. I know you'll do well and hopefully your brother matures too 😜

Definitely he's going to outgrow this stage of life and we both have got each other back despite the rivalry at times.😅
