I would love to have had brothers and sisters as my childhood was very unhappy. Jo.

Lisa, That's just the sort of relationship I would have loved. I really think that's why I started doing family history, felt as though I didn't have anything there. Dianex

one sister, 11 years older, twin brothers, 9 years older... I'm the baby of the family (a "happy mistake" lol). we don't have that much in common apart from genes really, get on OK I guess but not that close. My sister hated me when I was growing up, because I wasn't a girl - she already had two brothers. Wasn't till I was a teenager that we started to get on.

I have a sister 9 years younger and we don't get on at all. Never have a bit unfortunate really. Haven't seen her for over 3 years. She started a huge family argument at that time and it was the straw that broke the camels back for me, I don't need to be hurt anymore so made the decision enough is enough. Diane
