When you were a kid and your sibling got a bigger, better new toy, you cried your eyes out. The question is, have you outgrown that impulse, or are you still caught up in sibling rivalry? For many adults, kin competition continues into adulthood, as siblings compete for the best job, the best kids, the best car … the best life. Is sibling rivalry a motivating factor in your life, or have you grown up and moved on? Take this quick quiz and find out the truth!

  1. Looking back on my childhood, I feel that my parents:
    • Clearly loved me, but could have paid a tad more attention
    • Always paid more attention to my sibling -- even on my birthday!
    • Always paid attention to me and gave me plenty of love
  1. These days, when my sibling and I go home for the holidays:

    • We silently compete over whose gift our parents will like the most
