What's The Best Part About Being The Oldest Sibling?

Hope you little ones like my hand-me-downs.

As the oldest sibling, you often have more responsibilities, and are expected to be more ~responsible~.

But there can be a ton of perks, too. For instance, your younger siblings have always looked up to you, whether it be for life advice or taste in music.

You never got hand-me-downs, because you came first.

And growing up, you got to be in charge whenever you were all left home alone.
