I have two adult children, who are 7 years apart. I know they love each other but I want them to have a good relationship and connect with one another as siblings and friends. I lived my entire life trying to have a good relationship with my siblings. It was hard as our mother was an alcoholic who turned us all against each other for her own benefit which is a whole different story. It hurt me a lot that I missed out on having a solid relationship with my siblings. So it means even more to me to see my kids love and support each other. The age difference always made it a little difficult for them to bond but I know now that they are 20 and 27 it will be easier as they are adults.
