Youngest child poem

They call us the most spoiled of the family

Its true, to an extent

Yes i got the newest gadgets

or toys when I asked

Nevermind the hand me down clothes

or expired makeup staining my skin

They call us the crybabies of the family

I was too immature to handle the adult conversations

Topics of things I had no business knowing

An age gap between me and my sister

That meant I learned things much too soon

I just wanted her to like me

It's always about the eldest sibling

The ones who raised the others

That's fucking bullshit

I raised my goddamn self

No parents, no siblings, just me

My parents say "you're so responsible"

they say "you're so mature"

But I had no choice

I was six years younger

yet we were treated like we were the same

I learned not to talk back before my sister did

I learned the consequences early

The difference in footsteps

the inflections of tones

so I wasn't a problem

i tried to speak up for years

But it was always the same

"You're so young'

"You don't understand"

"It will make sense when you're older"

Well, i am older

And I understood then

Because you gave me no choice

They say the youngest are the most spoiled

And I was spoiled rotten.

So listening to Monster from EPIC the musical reminds me of Leo (specifically 2012) because of his voice.

So like Imagine Leo choosing to do everything within his power to protect his brothers, even if it means becoming a monster he'll do whatever it takes to keep his brothers safe because that's what it means to be the leader. Even if it means going against everything Master Splinter has taught him.

some of you need to romanticise the fucking paragraph break

Maturing is realizing that Molly Weasley was not a good mother to her children. Conditional love is not actually love (EX: Percy, the twins, etc) and unless they conformed to her ideas of what they should do, they were harassed or neglected. (EX: all of her children). I loved her in the first books, but the older I get the more I recognize that she’s toxic.

Hey! Do you have any parent-child prompts????? I’d love to see them if you do :) :) :) Thanks
