Write a short note on your siblings.

Siblings spend more time with each other than with anyone else. According to one study, by the time kids with siblings are 11 years old, they’ve spent roughly 33 percent of their free time with them. Even as they get older and have more outside interests and obligations, children still spend at least 10 hours a week with their brothers and sisters — in large families that number is more like 17 hours a week.
Siblings have a huge influence on our outlook, personalities and behavior. That’s even more so than our parents (who have less effect on whether a child smokes or drinks, for example, than a sibling does). Eighty percent of us spend at least a third of our lives with a sibling or siblings, according to some research, and nothing can replicate a strong sibling bond. Some research shows it may even lead to less depression, more life satisfaction and more self-esteem.
Siblings tend to resemble each other in looks and intelligence but not personality. Despite sharing the same parents and upbringing, brothers and sisters are often quite different when it comes to their personalities. Why this is the case isn’t clear, though siblings do tend to try to differentiate themselves from each other.
