My husband & I were talking about it in the car yesterday on the way home. He & I are the ones in our families that always end up taking on the major responsibilities. Not cause we want to but because we have to. Everything that's tough to handle comes to us first for some reason even though our families aren't small! I mean like he recalls having to tell his grandpa that his uncle (grandpa's son) had passed away. I can remember having to call family when I was 11 yrs old to tell them that my dad had passed away. Or like his mom was pretty messed up when he was young so he had to do alot on his own at times. My mom couldn't drive or do book keeping and we took on my sister's trash pickup service so I taught myself to do accounting stuff like taxes, etc. when I was 12. Yeah, we have alot in common, huh? It's funny cause he was the one to have to deal with things in his family & when I came into the picture, I took it on instead. People always ask me if I'm older than my sister and she's 8 yrs older than me!! I always tell them that all of my gray hairs are from having so many responsibilities since I was around 9 yrs old that she never had to deal with. So what kind of person are you in your family? Or in general? In general, I'm pretty much trying to stay out of the limelight for the most part then get pushed into the limelight cause I tend to do alot more than expected. In the family, I am the lead.
