Siblings can fulfill many roles for each other: protector, supporter, comforter, teacher, social planner, friend, and disciplinarian. Although siblings share many experiences, each one has a different perspective on those experiences
The nurse is completing a data collection about a family and knows which piece of information plays the most important role in shaping the experiences of the three siblings in the family? A) Type of family
B) Birth order
C) Family functions
D) Number of siblings
B
Feedback:
Birth order often plays a large role in shaping the experiences of siblings. Many other factors, including the time between each child's births, are as influential on sibling relationships as birth position. Type of family, family functions, and number of siblings do not play a large role in shaping the experiences of siblings.
