Growing up without a brother can be difficult. I understand the struggles because I lived them too. But what I never understood is why my parents decided to “hold off” on having another child. From my perspective it made me feel like they didn’t love me as much as their other children. My parents were honest with me and said they just wanted to reduce the family’s size since they had done IVF to get me. No matter how logical I knew this was, I still felt inferior to my sisters who were born naturally and were two years older than me. I think that’s why this quote above is special to me.
