I think birth order does make a difference within family dynamics, for sure. So I did get, I do feel, taken care of a lot, but at the same time, you know, my mom worked two jobs at a time, my dad worked a full-time job, so I did find myself being responsible, which, if my mom ever listens to this, she's going to maybe laugh when I say this, but she feels bad about it.
