I Have a Large Family

In a large family or even some medium-sized families and older or at least the oldest sibling often take on some of the parental roles in order to help out with younger ones.

Obviously the parents in each family are the final arbitrator on how much uthority if any the older sibling or siblings have but in your experience what type of parentental authoroty or tasks are acceptable for an oldest or older kid in family to take?

Happy to chat and look forward to responses.
