What's the age difference to your siblings?

@PerfectionOfTheHeart First of all it's my half-sister (mother side) and half-brother (fathers side), they've never actually met each other.

I grew up with my sister, but with a ten year difference it really wasn't a balanced thing, she just bossed me around. I honestly only started getting along with her when she moved out at 22 when she got married. But we are really close now.

With my brother it's different. There's a 21 year difference and I only lived with him for about a year and a half when he was a baby and I don't get to see him much since he lives up north. Now it's a bit easier since he's a full on teenager but we mostly connect through football and that's it.

@EuphoricTurtle Ah, I gotcha. That’s awesome you’ve been able to connect with both like you have though. Time could have easily made you and your sister harder to connect and forge what y’all have, and even though it’s primarily through football at least you and your brother have that to share with each other. Maybe time will play a factor in that as well.

@SW-User that's still a big difference. I grew up with a sister who was 10 years older and I always thought she was ancient 😆

@EuphoricTurtle 😂 We're 4 of us. I'm 3rd born. My eldest is 9 years older than I am and I totally get it. Lives were very different for us, while I was schooling they were already dating and working and so on.

@Nanori that's impressive. Did you guys stay close or is the difference too big?

@EuphoricTurtle I'm basically her mother

@Roadsterrider wow, way to spread out your offspring over different decades!

@EuphoricTurtle It wasn't bad but by the time I rolled into the picture he was almost 40, my older brother was the one that did the camping and hunting/fishing trips. My father passed away in my senior year of high school.

@LucyFuhr I get what you mean. I was raised by my mother since my dad was pretty much out of the picture by around 7. I only lived with my dad for a short period of time when my brother was born and the reason for it was pretty much because I knew if I didn't connect with my brother at that point then it would be incredibly hard later on.

@EuphoricTurtle I'm genuinely happy you got that chance.

@LucyFuhr ty 😉

@EuphoricTurtle sounds like all of us were unplanned.😂

@GunFinger Really? I assumed the opposite since you're pretty evenly spread out.

@EuphoricTurtle ok, if that's what you think.😊

@EuphoricTurtle my brother and I have never really had the chance to connect, plus we are very different

@SW-User Yeah, it's hard to connect when you're at such different stages of your life. I usually feel like some sort of uncle with him.

@EuphoricTurtle yeah it's weird lol

@summersong That's a scary trophy! What does the "V" stand for?
Is that Captain Venereal Disease?
Is that why he looks so angry?
Like "Dammit I got syphilis!!!!" 😆

@EuphoricTurtle idk but I somehow feel better about the world knowing that someone created this trophy 😂

@summersong And it's own "mini me"

@KristinaM that's just freakin' impressive

@EuphoricTurtle We always had someone to play/fight with lol. And now they’re my best friends.

@minxy all of your five years apart? did your parents have a schedule?

@EuphoricTurtle It sure seems like it. haha I've never spoke with them about it.

@Fairydust epic family planning!

@EuphoricTurtle i was the biggest mistake being the youngest and a girl... I was also the only one they bought champagne 🍾 for after my arrival haha 😂 been like that ever since 😝🥂🍾🤣

That’s a big age gap, how come?

@SW-User that's ridiculously close!

@SW-User that's pretty close, guess that made you the recipient of some major hand-me-downs

@EuphoricTurtle When I was young yes, then he used to get mine when I caught up. A lot of people thought we were twins.

@MonaLisa86 true, it would be weirder if they knew each other. My sister is my half-sister from my mother's side and my brother is my half-brother from my fathers side

@CrazyMusicLover did your parents sabotage you by having ONE party? Kind of like kids who are born on december 23rd?

@EuphoricTurtle Absolutely. 😂 As far as I remember, I have never celebrated birthday on my day as a kid. We "dealt" with it a day earlier. Even funnier thing is that my brother's name day is 3 days later so he always got presents in one go. 😝

@CrazyMusicLover damn sneaky parents, bet they did it on purpose!

@Allelse that's pretty close, enough for you to go through puberty at the same time and drive your parents insane!

@Stillwaiting that's very close, not sure if that's a good thing or not.

@EuphoricTurtle My sons are 22 months apart .. no situation is perfect, but for the most part in both cases, its been a good thing

@Stillwaiting that's all that matters 😉

@SW-User that's pretty close, although I guess it seems like a big difference when one is 13 and the other 18

@Keepitsimple that's a pretty cool difference. probably only conflicting when one is 15 and the other one 18. Then again I could be dead wrong

There was almost a brother between us. My 3 kids are almost 4 years apart. I love that they were so close.@EuphoricTurtle

@AnthroKenji that's like mechanical precision! 😯

@basilfawlty89 that's kind of in between, not close but not too far

@empanadas close enough to play video games together!

@EuphoricTurtle he liked playing his own video games
