I am one and I have trouble always grew up asking parents, permission, rules
but some decisions need to be taken on own, even smallest but the continuous overthinking complicates it further
Most of the time, I think the eldest ones are test subjects. Me. Make a terrible decision, and create a learning example!
Yea, parents are learning too. They are parents for the first time, no prior experience
It’s not about being a parent for the first time. But not having experienced the same thing.
For example post 12th what sub shall I choose. No one was there to tell, I researched and chose. They are there to support.
Shall I go outside the city for job? Will be it be good to stay at native or maybe go to capital city and see and explore. They don’t know the field, hence are helpless to provide a comment.
Now since we know the bits and bytes about it, I can tell my younger ones with great details.
Holy hell, this is kinda true. The younger sibling gets the hall pass because you already have set the precedent so parents are chiller.
No, I am a quicker & better decision-maker than my younger sis.

Not the major ones, the little ones

I blame parents for this. Not that coaching centres are saints, they suck the life out of students by making them study 24/7 but the reason that child is in coaching centre is because parents put him/her there.
And every suicide lette...
The root cause of all this is overpopulation and a shortage of jobs. Coaching centers and tough parenting only exist ...

Autocracy in the decision making or do you like more bureaucratic structure.
Like elder kids feel when their world is capsized with attention shift when new kid arrives. Obviously they want siblings but not at their expense
What all things do you think are it is what is
