Annoying siblings 
introduction 
‘Get out of my room!’ Is this what you constantly say to your siblings? They can also have lots of effects on you, it can be from following you everywhere, or not being able to concentrate on homework. Siblings are always around that's why sometimes you can be annoyed with them, and usually you aren't annoyed at friends because you are not around them as much. 
Paragraph 1
Siblings are scientifically proven to have different personalities based on if they are an older, younger or a middle child. Older children are thought to be more reliable, careful, structured, cautious, controlling and achievers. This may be because their parents usually think that they should be a bit tougher on their first child. Younger children are generally fun-loving, uncomplicated, outgoing but they can also be manipulative, attention-seeking and sometimes self-centered. Their parents are mostly laid-back because they know what to do with the children. The middle child is commonly a people-pleaser, somewhat rebellious, loves friendships, has large social circle and is more of a peacemaker, also the middle child doesn't get as much attention from the parents as the other children do so they have more time to hang out with their friends or just have fun.
Paragraph 2
When siblings fight it can be very annoying because usually one sibling starts a fight and the other one says that they started it, and of course it is usually true but that fight wouldn't of happened if the other sibling left them alone and not got angry. Many different things can cause siblings to fight. Most brothers and sisters have some jealousy or competition, and this can go into yelling and argument.
Paragraph 3
But other things also might affect how often kids fight and how bad the fighting gets. It's natural for kids' changing needs, anxieties, and identities to affect how they relate to one another. For  example, school-age kids often have a strong concept of being fair and equal, so might not understand why siblings of other ages are treated differently or feel like one child gets better treatment. Teenagers, on the other hand, are developing a sense of individuality and independence, and might turn out in helping with household responsibilities, taking care of younger siblings, or even having to spend time together with their siblings. All of these differences can influence the way kids fight with one another.
Paragraph 4
Siblings sometimes even ask for you to help them, or do something for them and that can make it harder than it already is to get your stuff done. This has happened to me, I stayed up till 10:00 working on art project trying to get it done so my sister could hand it in the next day at school. They can say that they have done some things for you so you should help them with this, that can make the sibling feel like they have to help even though they might have not done anything to help you 
conclusion 
If you don't have siblings you are probably pretty lucky because no one is bothering you and you get mostly peace and quiet. You don't have to stay in your room if you don't want to get bothered. But sometimes you can get bored when there is no one to play with and no one to look up to. But we all know we our siblings are our family so if you have a sibling be nice and help them out. Siblings can also share things or if you are the younger sibling you can get hand-me-downs and you can get a necklace or a shirt or something of theirs that you want. Now you know why siblings fight and manipulate each other and why siblings have different personalities based on what they are in the family. I hope you learnt a bit more about why siblings can be annoying.

Something I am really proud of is: 

Is the amount of information that I included in my writing.
