Most of the tech stuff goes to older sibling as they are elder
You get bossed around =(
Conclusion
ESSAY
Sadly... Being the younger sibling isn't always fun. Yes, it does have some advantages but mostly not. As you can tell, I would be a younger sibling. I have an elder brother and though I fell extremely fortunate to have such a helpful and fun person in my life; there ARE downsides to it as well. Everything has downsides. For example; when it is your birthday, your happy because you get presents and get 'special' treatment. However... the not- so- bright side, people put cake on your face. So as you can see... I have got perfect proof of the downsides and upsides of things.
First of all... It is not at all fair that parents consider the elder siblings ideas about certain things. They don't even take them in consideration! IF we are asking on an opinion on something, like a plan... I always give my very well- thought ideas to my family but sometimes, they are just not interested! They think that the elder ones can come up with more accurate answers as they are elder and more mature. They say that we can do my idea but end up doing my brother's mostly...
Secondly... It is certainly not fair that the cool new tech stuff goes to the older ones. =( For example; a cellphone. We get a good one when we come to age. I know that they waited for those years too but we have to see them with the tech stuff. The worst part, the elder people show it off! I have a cellphone but it's not as useful and 'good- looking' like my brother's. Also, for some reason... Our parents think that my brother is more responsible. Now, I respect that they think so because he is elder but I have my points too! For one, I think I'm usually the more responsible one because I hardly loose anything other than a few... So since they think that my brother is responsible and can handle things more carefully, he gets to take the nice stuff anywhere he wants.
Then, comes the last and probably the worst part of all. Seeing their ideas getting selected is fine, even watching them brag about the new tech- savvy things is fine. There is one that that I cannot tolerate; that is me getting bossed around by my brother. He thinks he is the boss of me. ='( If I'm just lying on my bed and wondering something, he is going to question me about what I'm doing and that I should do this. One more thing is that I sometimes have to do things for him like get his socks from the cupboard. If I don't, my parents will question why I'm not doing such a small favor for my dear brother. So, he wins once again. Mostly its bugging when he is sick. I know it is very rude to say no to a sick person in need, but its irritating when I am forced to get his U.G's.
Finally... Being the younger one isn't the best thing but as I mentioned before, there are bright sides to it. Sometimes... I wonder how it would be like without my brother but I rather not. I like my life a lot, just the way it is. Even if it means I have to get bossed around, even if my ideas get rejected and even if I am forced to see my brother rub his tech stuff in my face. In the end, it worth it!
