To the sibling reading this

Being the sibling is its own kind of hard, and hardly anyone talks about it. Somewhere along the way it can start to feel like nobody remembers to ask how you are doing. So let us say it: how are you doing? You're allowed to love your sibling and also feel frustrated, sad, or even jealous. None of that makes you a bad sibling. This section is for understanding what your family might be feeling, and for finding small, natural ways to stay connected.
