[QUOTE="Pink Elephant, post: 709775, member: 21572"] I didn't help bathe siblings until I was much older (teen years), but I did change diapers (lots of diapers), but not as a result of being forced to. Mom never imposed that upon me (ever). For me it was about offering and doing. I wanted to be involved in their daily care, because it made me feel mature and grown-up. I would have been age 10 or 11 when I started bathing sibs... and around age 7 or 8 when I started changing diapers, and I changed both wet-wets and dirties, and I'm not talking Pampers! LOL Oldest daughter was excited as could be when her last baby sibling came along, and being old enough to help, I taught her how feed and change the baby, and by age 10, her baby brother was in his two's, and daughter regularly took it upon herself to check and change his diapers, but not once did I ever demand such from her.
