This makes me LOL! My poor son suffers from SCS; I cannot remember when he took his first steps, when he got his first tooth, what his first word was…I don’t think I have a single picture with just him alone. But as revenge I’m fairly certain he’s going to be living with me til I die so…well played, Jake!

My brother thinks suffers from Second Child Syndrome. He doesn’t, he’s just self involved.

There’s a subset of second child syndrome called Little Brother Syndrome. My Little Man has it and I bet Drew has it, too. Its hallmarks are being served dinner on Princess plates and drinking out of pink & purple sippy cups.
