I have 2 younger sisters and a dog that acts like a brother. He should count.

It's just me and my "little" sis, although the distinction seems faintly silly now that we are both in our mid-40s. We were born 18 months apart, after our parents had struggled to have children for the first seven years of their marriage. They have now been married for 56 years, still bug the hell out of each other, and still couldn't live without each other.

As they began to think they couldn't have children, they began seriously considering adoption, and around that time they had me and my sister in fairly rapid succession. When it rains, it pours, I guess.

I'm not sure how the adoption route would have gone for them; we are members of a religious minority, and in those days cross-religious adoptions were nearly unheard of.

It's okay you have your 5,904 posts to comfort you. Sorry for your losses though

Now to the topic, I have one older sister, she's leaving for university though, so that's going to be the place to hide my headphones, and mooch off her for some money to get them, she'll feel bad when she comes to see me

6? bah.. ;D

my darling wife has 16 siblings - all from the same mother (this is a usual question in Muslim countries where a guy can have up to 4 wives and pretty much easier to rack up the numbers then...)

Wow...family gatherings must be incredible (I mean that in a totally good way!) I love my sister, who is my only sibling, but we were at odds most of the time growing up. I've sometimes wondered if it would have been better if we had had other siblings, so that we didn't relentlessly focus on each other, and compete with each other, all the time. There is a happy ending, though. We get along much better as adults than we did as kids. Maturity....what a concept.

there are no right answers, I think - no perfect balance no perfect numbers. we all make do with what (or who) we get

2. Or actually 1 and two half-siblings so that makes 3.

One pure little sister, one older half sister from my mothers original marriage, and one older (and oldest of my siblings) half brother from my fathers original marriage.
