15 things Irish people who grew up with a heap of siblings will know
IF YOU GREW up with a heap of siblings, you’ll know.
1. Alone time was not an option
Growing up in your house, there was never a dull moment. A dull moment = nobody annoying you in some shape or form.
You had to share EVERYTHING.
2. You could barely do anything without it getting back to one of your siblings
Because you all went to school in the same area and had many of the same friends, every single tiny thing you ever did or any bit of mischief got back to them.

3. Dinner time was an exercise in shoving as much as you could down your throat
Seconds? LOL. Eat fast or don’t eat.
