    This little girl enjoys looking after her sister, but it is a big ask for her. Siblings often become careers. She probably feels grown up and important doing it, and loves her sister very much, but if her parents depend on Tess too much. she might resent her sister when she is older, even if she loves her all the same. I see it in my job all the time.

    What a splendid family, especially young Tess caring so lovingly for her big sister. What a mature young lady.

    I Love this. Mom and Dad just has to make sure they have to see when the youngest morphs into a teenager and wants to morph into their own person with t He own family.... I'm only saying this cause I've lived through it. Bless y'all💓💓💓💓💓💓

    I’ve watched this a few times over the years. Tess is a great kid. I hope they’re all still doing well.

    I am a mum of 2 girls as well and my girls 29 and 30 (16 months apart) are very very close, too. The younger one has down syndrome and for 2 times we‘ve been praying not to loose her because of heart issues. But never ever I‘ve let my big one take so much care of her sister, even though she loves her the same as Tess loves Zoe. And even after my divorce I didn’ t put my tasks over to my older girl. It was her childhood, that goes by so fast, and to be a grownup with all the responsibilities would last so long. Why don‘t YOU mum prepare the lunchboxes for both of your girls? Especially when you are awake and in the kitchen the same time? Give Tess more of her childhood! Zoe is YOUR daughter not the one of Tess!
