    I'm the youngest.
    Basically, I get my brother to act really well, but sometimes do something bad, so I can get away with it.
    But I'm not allowed house parties anymore as my brother trashed the house. Disgust

    I love being the youngest most of the time, but it sucks not being able to do the stuff that my brother can do because he's older. And I feel like I'm in his shadow a lot.

    But then again... I do get the house all to myself now.

    Being the youngest has it's ups and downs. But I think it'd
    be worse if I was the youngest sibling out of like..four. But it's just my sister and I.

    Oh, being the youngest is lovely. Not.

    I'm the youngest of six. Four boys, two girls. My brother's always picked on me and did brotherly stuff: they broke Barbie, farted in my face, burned Ken, farted in my face, colored on my favorite dress, farted in my face, lock me out of the house, and oh... farted in my face. ...pigs.

    And my sister was just a sister. She always taunted me saying that I was the ugly child.

    But being the youngest has it's up sides: nobody ever messes with me because they're afraid I'll get my brothers on their ass. Haha. That's probably my favorite part about being the youngest :D

    Haha, being the youngest isn't that great, honestly.
    Everyone thinks you get everything you want but in my house, it's kinda the opposite.
    Oldest child gets treated better, gets whatever he wants.
    w/e, I guess it's what you get used to, right?

    But yes, like what tayLa UniverseCity said, no one messes with me cause I'll put my brother on their ass. 8)

    I'll have to say that I hate being the youngest.
    Although me and my brother get along really well, and him being two years older then me and he does give me advice on things when he can, my parents are compairing him to me.
    If he does so well in something, then the pressure is on for me to live up to that kind of standard when I have to do it.

    Also, you don't get as much attention as they would have. I don't really even like attention mose of the time, but it would be nice to have some attention every now and then.

    I quite liked being the youngest when my sister lived here, because things she wasn't allowed to do until she was sixteen (like get belly button pierced) I got done when I was thirteen. And she often got in more trouble. :P

    Although now my sister has moved out, and is pregnant, I might as well not be around when she is! I suppose understandable really. Pfft. :P heheh.

    Not really, I'm the youngest and my parents don't pay me any special attention. My sister gets all of the praise and attention and all of the 'bigger, better things'. I feel that I disappoint my parents because, so many times I've been told, "Why can't you be just like your sister?" or "I wish you weren't the way you are, it'd be so much better if you were like Nicole."

    Also, my parents hardly give me anything, none of them ever remember my birthday, whereas my sister always has a party. When my sister gets a D, my parents are so proud, but when I get a B, they tell me that it's unacceptable.

    Quite frankly, I don't like being the youngest, but hey, if it's different for you then, more power to you! :cute:

    Sorry but that post made me smile. Brothers are pigs. I have one brother who is 10 years older than me. We get along most of the time (we have the same twisted sense of humor). We still fight like all hell though too.

    We had a deodorant fight (mind you, this was like two months ago) and he sprayed men's aerosol deodorant in my eye and then asked me why I was crying.

    ...I don't know...maybe because you burned my eyeballs out with an aerosol can!?

    I hate being the youngest.

    Example: I come home from school, 7th grade, 13 year old girl. I'm texting my best friend who I haven't seen in forever because her mom won't let her see me as I am a 'bad influence.' Nick, 19, has a dorm at a college close by, skips class a lot and doesn't stay in the dorm, comes in, takes my phone, pushes and hits me when I try to get it back. I'm obviously pissed off so he gives it to Matt, 23, college drop out, lives with his mother, 10 years older than me, a lot bigger, stronger, shoves it doen his pants and plays with it before giving it back to Nick, who runs upstairs. They jump in my bed [I just fucking changed the sheets] and start rolling around, both not having showered for a few days and being really greasy and gross. Matt continues to rub his eye and then wipe his hands all over me. Apparently, he has pink eye. He thought it wasn't contagious. It is. Highly so.

    Eventually they get bored and leave.

    Later, they both come into the room I'm in, close the door, and block me in the corner then wipe they're hands all over me. Previously, those were on ther asses. Thanks Matt. Thanks Nick.

    I went to tell my mom and she claimed there was nothing she could do about it. I pointed out how much trouble I would be in if I did all this. She said she would talk to them. Great, because that has always done so much. She never punishes them. Never 'or you can't use my car' or 'or you can't live in my house 23 year old bum who spends all his money on toys.' Please.

    I explained to her how unfair that was; she said 'bullshit.' I asked her for one example and she couldn't give it.

    I'm the baby of two, I have one older sister and I envy her.
    She's older so she can do so much more than me and she is way prettier. I don't think it's great being the youngest, it just makes you more restricted on what you can do which can be irritating. I swear I bore my parents with everything I do.

    I'm still at school while my sister isn't and my parents think I should do better in every single test I do. Like I got a B for my coursework the other day and instead of praising me, my dad looked at me and asked me; "Why didn't you get an A?"

    Um, no my brother has put up a such a great example from all of his efforts in school, and I have quite bad grades...
    So I disappoint them all the time in all ways, they want me to be like my brother, but we're the opposite except the fact that they have both failed with us... They don't like anything that I like, they think I am weird and are scared of the thought of it.

    There's ups and downs to it, but all in all, it's not what I picked and nothing I'd complain about.
    I'm in no hurry to grow up. :]

    Being youngest is so not the greatest. You're always blamed for everything. My sister does something wrong, I get the blame. My sister wants something, she gets it but I can't have anything cos we got not money left. My sister is like a genius, my parents are always proud of her, I feel like she doesn't even try, it's so unfair.
    Mind oyu there are pro's. Like I always have someone to help with my homework. If I just need to rant I know she'll always listen. She's the one who brings me back to reality.

    That's different for me. When I was younger I used to be able to blame everything on my older brother. I've learned to control that now.

    The downside of being the youngest is that I have to live up to my older sibling's standard. So if my sister does something spectacular in life the bar is raised for me. I have to live up to it or beat it. I'm not sure if it's the same for you guys.
