10 Things Every Young Sibling Has Experienced In Their Life
Danielle Snyder

Being a younger sibling can be a blessing and a curse. We go through some good times and we go through some bad times. Here are 10 things all younger siblings can relate to.

1. The older sibling using the age card

My sister would always pull the "I am older" or "I was born first" whenever it came to who could take the shower first.


2. Getting away with something because you are the cute younger sibling

It doesn't hurt to be mischievous especially when you know you wont get in trouble because you will bat those puppy eyes.

3. Stealing all your older sister's cute clothes.

All of the female siblings can relate to this one. You borrowed your sister's shirt without her knowing but sooner or later you got caught! "All I wanted was to be fashionable"

4. Always trying to hang out with your siblings "cool" friends

Us younger siblings just wanted to hang out with the cool older kids... or your sibling's cute older friend, but we always ended up getting kicked out!

5. Your older sibling always trying to get under your skin

It seems to be an older siblings goal to annoy the living daylight out of his or her younger sibling.

6. Older siblings teasing the younger siblings

Sadly I was the one always getting teased, us younger siblings are so vulnerable. For example, my mom use to tease her younger sister by waking her up on Saturdays, having her think it was a school day and watching her get ready at 11pm thinking it was time for school. Teasing and fighting is all part of sibling love.

7. When your older sibling is having a party and you are stuck in your room.

Your sibling was having a Friday night party and instead of hanging out with them you were told not to leave your room under any circumstance.

8. Laughing when the other sibling is getting yelled at

Watching your parents yell at one of your siblings gave you so much joy. Finally you became the favorite.

9. Your older sibling telling you that you were adopted

I will never forget my sister and I arguing and her telling me that I was adopted. I've heard this is a common thing siblings say to eachother... which I am not sure if that's good or not.

10. Having a bestfriend(s) forever

No matter the situation, your siblins will always be your siblings and they will be there for you through thick and thin and always your best friend.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
