Any parents who have more than one son: do you think brothers bring out the "boy" in each other more than if?

Question

it was a brother and sister. My oldest son seems more mischievous now that he has an "accomplice" than he did before my youngest was born.

Answer 1

i totally believe they bring it out in each other. i have 3 boys and i had a brother and sister growing up and my brother never acted like my boys do. i think what gender your sibling is affects you. just my opinion though

Answer 2

I would have to say I have 2 little boys and my 5 year old has taught my 23 month old alot. My son is just like your son is more mischievous and more onary then before is brother was here. Now that we have another little boy on the way I am curious to see if my 23 month old is going to teach the new baby everything that he knows which sometimes isn't so good.

Answer 3

YES!! I have a 6 year old and twin 22-month old boys, and they are very ruff with each other.

Answer 4

This is a really interesting question... I don't have any idea what it is like to have a girl or a brother but I think you

are right they bring out the "boy" in each other.

My son's are ten, seven, three and a half, and three months old.

Answer 5

you got to know they feed off each other!  good luck

Answer 6

It's hard for me to say.  My first two are boys so they have been together from the get go. But this is interesting.
