Sounds like the person who wrote this wants to raise children who become self centered. I enjoyed babysitting my brother, and today we have a great relationship, and this taught me to be very caring towards others.
maybe your parents were balance it as this article suggest it shouldn't be too much it better be appreciated you have to let them live their childhood no, actually nowadays most parents are more sslf centered they may not up to thier responsibilities and ok to slide some to the next of kin
well the article is right to the point I don't think it's right to judge one's background the writers, yours or mine do you think
I don’t think older children should have to care for the younger child. It just isn’t fair to either child. Sure, play with the younger when parent is cooking or in the house. I also have strong feelings about buying a dog for a child but making them care for the pup. They simply aren’t ready to do this and the dog will suffer. If your child wants a dog and you agree, get one. But, the parent needs to be the primary caretaker. So, knowing how I feel about kids caring for dogs....just imagine how I feel about caring for young siblings.
I have a lot of thoughts about this. When children get parentified they are seen as authority figures within family, breaking sibling bonds forever. It sets up abuse scenarios. There needs to be balance. Minors sometimes appear to be mini adults, but they are not. Some skills are lacking.
