Yes, siblings are like parents, but they are also their first best friends in life. They are always there as they grow up, knowing everything and loving unconditionally. They also want to spread happiness and hate seeing their siblings angry. An article titled “Relationship with Siblings as a Predictor of Empathy and Humorous Styles in Early Adulthood,” by Walęcka-Matyja, Katarzyna Kamila, states that growing up with siblings allows them to develop qualities such as resolving conflicts and compromising. The text also included that when one has close contact with brothers, it is easier to accept advice and their personal experiences (Walęcka-Matyja 45). Advice that has to do with relationships, school, but also with sport. It's difficult to have to accept advice from parents because children usually don't listen to it, but receiving advice is different and more understanding from a sibling. Being there for their younger siblings is very comforting and uplifts them, which leads to a positive attitude.
