Oh BROTHER! The surprising impact of siblings
It can seem like a mysterious place we once knew – adolescence.
We’ve all been there. But the angst, drama, the questioning, the ups and downs of that time, may seem hard to understand now that we’re older.
A lot has been studied and written about the parent/adolescent relationship as well as the influence of peers and friends.
But what about siblings? They’re usually an integral part of home life. How important is the sibling relationship on the development of a child? And how does it affect future relationships with friends - even romantic partners? Psychologist Ryan Persram has some fascinating answers!
