7 boys, 3 girls here. We get along very well. I've got one brother living in Norway, and a sister moving to California, but otherwise we all stayed pretty close. However the way technology has impacted us is very different. I was watching my little siblings at 6. No tv until I was 8 or so (probably explains why so many siblings). We made our own fun. Legos, stick fights, building forts from scrap lumber, hiking, backpacking trips. Computers were not new, but just starting to be accessible to the general public. I remember MS DOS. Programming in gw-basic. Having to know something about a computer just to turn it on (started with an 8088). In my late teens, cell phones were a novelty. Text messaging was bizarre. Whereas my youngest sister is absolutely a part of the selfie generation, using snap chat as a primary form of communication.

Weird being a part of that generational divide, having seen both sides.
