It amazing to me that those who tried to look after younger kids when they were kids themselves now feel guilty for failing their younger siblings. As an adult I really care about and look out for other people, it's really important to me. As a child I didn't get on with my younger sibling at all, and didn't look out for him either. That makes me feel so sad now. It's so unlike me now as an adult...but I guess I too was a child and I didn't know how to take care of someone else, because nobody had really shown me what that was like. Other people seem to manage to try though and I really wish that I had tried. I wish that I had been a better kid but I wasn't!
