thanks for sharing your personal experience, I find it valuable and i love it. Ride on brother.

My children have already grown up. Children live their own lives. Very good, when there is a big and friendly family. Children are joy in life. Happiness!

I am 5 brothers and my first child usually every want to go to school always my mother give me milk tea ,,
milk tea is a drink that my parents say can make me strong think and healthy always, so that when i am now 30 years old family routine iti keep remembering in my daily life, before doing all activity

My husband and I have 5 kids, and the 5th one broke me, hubby wanted 6, but there's no way that's happening lol! I can totally relate to feeling overwhelmed and having 5th child syndrome! Thanks for your post! :)

Wow, This is a soft read. It is one of those things about family where identity is built and all family members resonate with it.  I still don't have a family of my own, and cannot really know which 'syndromes' i will build it around,  so i can't say much. 

Where i grew up is  some what not the most interesting, at least not in the sense that i am comfortable telling, and in part because unlike your families fifth syndrome which came to glue you together, mine when they came , it was drive  a wedge! 

I basically grew up away from my mother, and only for a while with dad, and very few times with my siblings... the syndromes i know drove 'us' apart. 

Yours though, and now your daughter's is really humbling. Tinged my heart a bit!

Family is just amazing. We sure do have slang we used back then (infact, so many of them), but now that I think of it, I can't remember most of them, its kinda blur. Your family is awesome, I can feel the love from your words.

I am 4 of 5 but it is of the worse kind. If my oldest brother was a girl (more than he is), there likely would have been a one child family. But, I have three older brothers and the girl was fifth.

It was much like this: 

>Taraz: "Mum, Can I have a cookie?"
Mother: "Who the hell are you?"

i like your family planning.

>To this day when there is a ton of activity and someone gets overwhelmed and snaps we ask each other in a teasing tone, "Fifth Child Syndrome?"

Haha this is almost same for my family, though we call it last born syndrome, where the last born feels entitlement to be most pampered than his elder ones

What an idea!!!

Oh, your last words really made emotional and i can feel that, and really great to know some of your life aspects, which sounds unusual but in your case it's perfectly blended. And great to hear about the fifth child syndrome and third child syndrome and in my opinion this happens with most of the family where children ask same question over and over and turn by turn then guardian have to reply with commanding voice because parenting job is not easy. And most importantly, great to know that now your kids are doing great with amazing family and careers and i will pray to Almighty Father for goodness forever for you and your family. And i wish that once again you will get the chance of Series of child Syndrome. Thanks for sharing this post with us and wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. 🙂

Fifth child syndrome. Sometimes it happenes,3/4 th child syndrome. We are getting impatient day by day...lol

I'll only have kids if I win 'em in a poker game.

Greetings: A crazy family? My family? No, can't think of anything we did that was crazy.  My children would be the ones to ask... there are rumors that some of the kids have other perspectives. 

My former dearly beloved and I came from really disfunctional families. We had no clue how to raise kids, but we were both willing to learn so made an effort and when our family was young we were in the LDS church surrounded by families so we watched and copied. The church was good for that. I guess one of the most important things we taught our kids was to be bold, to be daring to try things and do things others don't. So we had a daughter who went to Australia for a Masters and doctorate degree. Another toured Europe and was a missionary to Spanish speaking people. Well... and so forth.  We had two foster sons also. And then after my FDB and I parted ways I had two more foster sons. 

I don't think we had the Fifth Child Syndrome in our family. All the kids probably felt that way! Well... hope not. The kids are all grown and on their own now, just like yours. I'm fortunate in that I get along well with all of them and they all live within about 30 miles except for one who is about a 2.5 hr. drive away. Not so bad.  

But they are humans! And have had their trials and tribulations. Dang, thought they would get a  pass on that. Had my last daughter get married about a month ago to her partner, Brenda. So always something exciting going on. 

Blessings. May you be at peace today.

i stumbled on a few of your posts today through various resteems so i came to check out your blog. my partner's youngest sister (the fifth child) was here visiting just last week so this post caught my eye. i can totally see how 5th child syndrome would take over! haha! i don't even have one child at this point, but my 3 pets sometimes get me to 5th child syndrome ;) i love that your blood family is also your chosen family... that's always beautiful <3 following you now!!
