Child Development
My family is the closest thing to me. I know my life can compare to my brothers and sisters. Out of three sisters and two brothers I went with one of my sisters. Her name is Holly she is 21 and we are similar more than any of my brothers and sisters. We have experienced going through pregnancy at a young age, family problems and becoming an adult.

She got pregnant at the age 16, we all were upset with her. She went through a lot with all of us and my mom. We still excepted it and stuck by her. She said the hardest thing was not having the babys dad accepted by my mom. She just wanted that family idea for her family. She had her baby heidy at the age 17. I can compare to my sister because I went through the same thing I got pregnant at the age 16 and had my baby at 17. It was very hard being away from her dad but he was there when I had her and is in our life today.

Our family is very crazy, but when it comes down to it we are all there for eachother. We have our moments and fights, we stop talking and then start talking. We are not a perfect family but there isnt a perfect family. Holly and I went through a lot of fights when we were young. Know we are adults and have our own families we are totally different. We don't fight we might get mad about something stupid but when it comes down to it family is that only thing you will have in the end.

We had to grow up and become young adults when it came to us having our kids. She didn't finish school. Her not finishing school has actually helped me want to finish. I rather prove everyone wrong then to give them the satifaction of them being right. She also said how sometimes being young and having a kid people still dont take you serious. I told her about an accidnet that happen at the doctors and she said it was cause im young and think i dont know what im talking about that she went through the same rudeness.

Through everything I love my sister, all of them and my brothers. I can relate to all of

I never take it for granted that I am blessed with a mom who is an amazing cook. Our meals are always full of great food. Additionally, having 3 siblings can lead to many crazy adventures and hectic situations, but I…

    Richard Bach made a very powerful statement in the book Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah that has always resonated well with his audience and it was “Rarely do members of the same family grow up under the same roof.” This concept has created the profound thought that family does not need to be related, and in fact you can meet members of your family in every stage of your life. When you imagine a family; race, age, and sexuality are not determining factors. However, a family is a group of people or a person who will support one another in good times or bad.…

    Although I am a little rough around the edges, I have a soft spot in my heart for those whom I love. My family keeps me going through the good, the bad, and the ugly. My parents are still happily married, even through twenty-two years of putting up with four children. My three sisters are amazing. Their names are Shannon, Ashley, and Lynnsy. I do, in fact, play favorites when it comes to siblings. Ashley is my favorite because she is always around helping me with whatever I need. I also am very close to my cousin, Matt Hare, and his family. I consider everyone an acquaintance because I do not like to get too close to people emotionally. If there was ever anything that any of my family needed, I would do everything I could to help them obtain it..…

    Furthermore, when I was asked to interview ten people of different age, ethnicity, etc, they all had similar responses. I was astonished because my initial thought of family like said previously, is a mom, dad, brother, sister. However, all these responses went beyond and not said just blood related, but basically anyone who has been by their side all along. My mom defined family as “family to me is more of a feeling or emotion than a noun. It is a bond, a strong tie to a group of people who love, nurture and understands each other. Groups who support one another and help each other grow, learn and thrive. These people do not have to be blood related; family means the people in our lives with whom we depend on.” My mom being in her late 40’s, I got a similar response from the total opposite; a 15 year old African American. He defined family as “family is a group of people whom you will always have in your life no matter what happens. You go through the good, the bad and the ugly, but always helping each other and nothing can separate you. Even if you leave your family physically, you will always have an emotional and/or spiritual connection to them.” The other people I interviewed were my aunt, my math teacher from high school, a theology teacher from here at Creighton, an 18 year old boy from Columbus and a few friends.…

Although fights are always going to occur, it brings a feeling of peace knowing that once the fight is over you are still family. The people in my family have one of the biggest influences in my life. They not only test my insanity on a daily basis, but give me the voice in the back of my mind to always do my best. Family is a unique thing because you can’t choose them, yet they end up being the perfect fit in your life.

    I have two older sisters and one younger brother. My first older sister is Brandy she is 21 years old and is the closest sibling to me. My other older sister is Cassidy she is 26 years and has a 1 year old son. My younger brother is named Michael he is 12 years old. Life with siblings is good and bad depending on how you look at it. My sister Brandy and I never really got along because we were closest in age. When I was little she would always make fun of me and hit me; however, she wouldn’t let anybody make fun of me or touch me on the bus or at school. I always looked up to her because she had everything. When I started getting older around 14 years old things changed I started to beat her at games and got stronger so she would be scared to hit me because she knows that she would get it back. By the time I was 17 we started getting along; we would go to the mall together and not fight or argue. My sister Cassidy and I never fought and she was always there for me. Since the age difference is so high we had no need to fight. She would always take me places and do things for me like an older sister should. She was the best older sister I could ask for. My brother Michael and I never got along. He was the most annoying brother in the world. Brandy never really got along with him either. Since I am the older brother my parents would always try and make me do stuff for him and take him places but I would always refuse. If I ever took him in my car he would be so annoying playing with my windows and touching everything in my…

    They keep me grounded, joyful, irritated, and most importantly myself. Also, they encourage me to follow all my dreams and aspirations in life. However, they don't always agree with what I desire to do, causing us not to communicate with each other. My family has their moments just as every other family will, but we always come back stronger than ever. Above all, family is home and without a home, there wouldn't be anywhere to move to.…

    The people who are my family are my husband, my children, my mother, my father, my sister and my two brothers. I consider them my family because they are the only people that I can rely on when I need anything at all. I can call or come to their house at any time and they will assist me with whatever I need, they are also the people I do the same for. We also get together at least once a week at my house for dinner, sometimes my mom will make a dish to bring also. We eat together then usually will watch a movie my mom picks up from a Red Box on her trip over, it’s been a routine we have done for quite a few years. I am not as close with any other extended family members. I’m not sure why that is, I grew up this way and it has just remained that way.…

    Another reason my older sister is my favorite sister is that she is compassionate. She has great sympathy for other people’s suffering. For instance, she often tries to help poor and homeless people by donating food, clothes, money, etc. She used to work as a volunteer for in a school for the blind children in Vietnam. I still remember when I saw her taught those children to read by touching the special characters. She patiently held her students’ hand and instructed them. Although it was not an easy job, her face was always radiant with smiles. She often told me to give what I got, and to feel happy helping others. My sister cares deeply about other people more than herself.…

    I live with my Aunt and her family, she adopted me after my parent divorced. Being the youngest child of my family seem very happy but really sucks. All the hopes and ambition does toward my bigger brother, Eli. Everyone was always proud of my brother no matter what. As for my other older sister, she is only five years older than me and she was the only girl member of the family (beside my Aunt). Of course everyone will spoil her and give her all the attention and love she needs. However, I was the child who was just always there. Whether it’s succeeding in school with high grade, doing all the house chores, or in fact doing the most work, I was just the person in everyone’s eyes who always there. But, whenever my siblings did something wrong it would be my fault. Nobody is going to question what happened it’s just always my fault. At least this is how it was in my family.…
