40 Unhinged Tweets From Eldest Daughters Who’ve Had Enough

I appreciate the compliment

This...... hits hard. WHO'S BEEN SPYING ON MY LIFE????????? HOW DID YOU GET A DESCRIPTION OF ME???

Definitely. Also one of my siblings is a year younger than me so they won’t listen to anything I say. ALSO my parents are so much more lenient with my younger siblings but sooo strict with me!!! 😭😭

I'm the eldest, younger brother is 5 years younger...I always fought his battles when others tried to bully him, today still fight his battles with his cray-cray girlfriend. Tells her he doesn't hit women, but he knows someone who will

Actually, each oldest daughter would want to do things her way. 😁 (I know, I'm the eldest!)

Yep...😑

Why is this so true. Especially if my mother is away then I’m stuck to do whatever’s there

5. calendar dates to remind everyone of each other's bdays and other important dates

THANK you!

Eldest sibling full stop!

And people wonder why I'm childfree...

I’ll scream but get in trouble for being loud

Accurate, I'm 40 in June and having my first baby in October.

That's our job, they should respect that.

Yeah especially when your father and brother don’t do anything

If I'm the youngest child but the only girl, am I included? Asking for a friend

Im just happy my mum helps more as she knows what it’s like she the eldest daughter as well. So are all my friends but we all are also the second child all have older brothers, so if we were royal w would all be in the secret society for second born royals, if you get the movie reference

I don't have time for feelings, I'm responsible for making sure everyone else is okay first. There is no time for me, and yes I am a first born and a daughter who held her mother's hand for three months while she lay dying while my younger sister who only live 60 miles away and could certainly afford it, only came once. But I ruined the funeral for her because my family and I were on the front row and her family was in the 2nd row. That is just how it worked out, not planned. Because of that, she has not spoken to me in 10 years. Okay, I'm finished venting. Thank you for the opportunity.

Apparently it's on the 5th of January

This makes me sad...

YES WE ARE

Could someone explain futher what is meant by this?

Wow... it's... like you know my life.

Story as old as time... I will now appreciate my oldest daughter, who is also the oldest child; as a single mom i did depend on her so much!

Yeah except I can’t fix the problems so I kind of just paint them over or hide them under my bed where they whisper to me at night

That's me;)

Okay now 364 more takes to go... than we can start the next year of takes and repeat until we go off to college

I already do this!

No one any where!!

Being the eldest daughter in a military home guarantees it. I don't care that my brother was born 5 years later. I was still the oldest son.

Yeah if I cook it has to cater for my brother as well and seeing as he’s got so many allergies, it’s a great feeling when I make something he can’t eat

“A son’s a son ‘till he takes a wife. But a daughters a daughter for the rest of your life.” A proverb that must have been written by eldest daughter.

I check every box except im not in an asian family 🙃

here here! Where do I sign?

I feel sorry for my eldest child - eldest daughter whose mother was an eldest daughter and grandmothers were eldest daughters, as was at least one GGM.

Yeah, my mother used to use my youngest sister as a way to get back at our cheating father. Even literally told me she sees no reason my sister's happiness should be more important than hers. As the oldest I tried my best to protect my little sis. Tried so hard to get in between and get the emotional trauma instead. Didn't always work anyway.

I never would have realized that's where this desire comes from.

I'm the eldest daughter that grew up to be a single mum, feel overqualified tbh

We do apparently! January 5th (aka my new favorite day of the year)

Please don’t ever shorten “Eldest Daughter” to E.D. because everybody will think you are talking about erectile disfunction.

Do you think you can let go enough to start disappointing your family? I but you can't!

Or the continent...

amen! also add elder care, nanny, and therapist

YES I AM

We laugh to cover up the stress 😀

Again, no child should be used as a mediator/counselor for her parents!

beacuse..... You know what I have no clue.

Throw in some anxiety and pick some more issues just because.

Never ever?

Agreed 😔

Nope. Working very hard in therapy (and outside of it) to recognise the signs and avoid this. Honestly my biggest nightmare. I see the character traits that we share and I work on myself to be able to handle them instead of spiraling out of control.

U see thats when i scare my brothers cause ill be laughing so hard ill go insane

Just remove translator and it works for my white @ss

Finally something positive in this thread! 🤓

My boyfriend has been honestly the best motor for making me work on boundaries with my family. If only for the reason that I want to spend time with him and I want to have a healthy relationship with him. He motivated me to go to therapy. He supports me when I stand up to my parents. He works as a peaceful port I get to come home to.

I cried one time during it lol

Yes. Yes indeed 🫠

You can but you won't be able to tell

Why is that so true😭

😩

All my friends are the youngest child in there family.... they know not the trials😢

No☹

*takes off supply bags, med kits, agendas, and ALL the stress* NO ONE CAN STOP ME NOWW *grows to 10 lightyears, and finds inner peace*
