My mom was the normal disciplinarian and my dad never really paid attention. But when he'd get mad, he'd lose his shit and yell -- at either my brother or me. He was an equal opportunity yeller. My mom was definitely easier on my brother though. I think both because he was younger and because he was a boy. Especially when it came to food.

I was definitely daddy's girl though and I could get away with a lot more when it came to my dad than my brother could. My mom didn't put up with shit from either of us, but my dad totally put up with my shit.

My mom was the bad guy for all of us (my dad only stepped in to spank us when my mom couldn't handle us anymore). My brother got away with a lot more because when my mom would get angry with him he'd put on this "angel" face and say: "Oh mother! Have I done something to upset you?" and she'd end up laughing.

Although because I was the youngest I got away with a lot more...and part of it was that I watched my older siblings get in trouble for stuff and I just didn't do that and avoided a lot of stuff.

I was never grounded, or punished... and i rarely, if ever, broke the rules, and neither did my siblings... interesting how that works.

My mom was way easier on the boys than she was with me and she also played favorites with one of my brothers to an extreme.

Posts: 6910 (10/14/2008 4:17 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Friend Block Invite Ignore	I grew up with both parents and a sibling of a different gender. My mom was definitely harder on the both of us though - I think that it's because of her personality. My dad is a push over and we could usually get what we wanted from him. That being said, my brother and I did get treated differently. He had more freedoms than I had, especially in his teenage years. It could be because I was also the first-born, but I always get the whole "He's a boy, it's different" speech.

What I found was that because my brother was a bit wayward, I usually felt the heat from his mistakes. He would abuse a privilege, so it'd either get extended to me much later than it was to him or not at all. My mother probably did a lot more of the disciplining than my dad since she was around more, but she was less of a hard ass and more "I'm very disappointed" than my Dad

All the discipline went into me and my brother kinda fell by the wayside and now that's totally coing back to kick both parents in the ass. He acts like a spoiled, unappreciative brat. WOW are you me?! It's exactly the same way for me. I don't resent it, because I've definitely grown up to be the responsible, 'good' kid and I love it
