I have 9 other siblings, ranging in age from 27 to 48 years old (I think.. it's hard to keep track lol)
My relationships with them all border on good/tolerable. We are very fortunate to be on good terms, despite our very very different beliefs.
I think it stems from the fact that we were never raised with malice/anger being an option in our home. Frustrated? Yes. Very much. But we were never hateful. There was always someone to bond with, and no one ever felt singled-out.
It also helps that we all like our space and were mostly respectful and understanding of that aspect as we grew up. It can be a bit difficult for all of us to make friends who "get" us like our family does, so letting loose at get-togethers is always fun and hilarious.
