People with siblings have no boundaries and it always stuns me as an only child. There is no room for autonomy or privacy. Older siblings especially tend to treat their younger siblings as if they belong to them. Personal decisions cannot be made without policing or one sibling feeling in charge of the other. They for whatever reason need to know every thing thats going on in their life, no matter how personal, and if they don't it causes a huge crashout. Something happens with one sibling, the other immediately thinks it also involves them. The entitlement is insane. To make matters worse, they think this behaviour is normal and universal for whatever reason when it's actually just text book enmeshment. And if you tell them that, they take offence to it. Just an observation as an only child. Lots of people on here complain about hating being an only child, but there's a bizarre dynamic siblings have that I'm personally glad I am not a part of.
