“Y’all need to let your first borns breathe. They came first does not mean they should carry everybody’s load. Many of them don’t even like you anymore , because when you text them na so so panic attack. They’re just not allowed to say it. Let them breathe.”
“Also, first born sef learn how to say no and set boundaries. You deserve peace too.”
