"Sister is probably the most competitive relationship within the family, but once the sisters are grown, it becomes the strongest relationship"
- Margaret Mead
About this Quote
In this quote, Margaret Mead highlights the complex and dynamic nature of the relationship between siblings. She recommends that within a household, the bond between siblings is frequently identified by competition, as they may vie for attention, resources, or approval from their parents. However, as siblings grow and develop, this competitive nature changes into a strong and solid bond. Siblings who might have when contended versus each other now end up being each other's most significant fans and allies. This change is a testimony to the long-lasting and powerful connection that exists in between sisters, one that can hold up against the difficulties and changes of life.
This quote is written / told by Margaret Mead between December 16, 1901 and November 15, 1978. She was a famous Scientist from USA.
