Home
Alongside the relative experience I have above, during my pre-teen to teen years I have been looking after my younger sister whom is 7 years younger than me. I played with her during her younger years, made her food, fed her and helped in any way I could. As she grew up, I have provided the same support as well as picking her up from school and helping her with her homework. Even occasionally dropping off at her high school to give her lunch and to talk with her if she wanted.
