Who is the one wearing the pants (figuratively)? Who always gets what they want? Who’s the shy one? Who keeps everyone on their toes? Etc etc. if you aren’t married with kids yet, you can talk about the dynamics of your family with your parents and siblings.

I’m probably slightly more bossy. But there’s only the two of us. No kids and as for parents and siblings – they all live in other countries than we do.
well my dad wears the pants and sometimes my mom does.. its eqal.. i always get what i want.. my big brother is the shy one…. my big sister acts like is shes our second mom..my second oldest brother is like the cool rebel na doldest brother is the rich one of us..lol
cool 5 kids! that must be a fun house to live in during holidays :)
my mom “wears the pants”, my brother’s shy, my sister is crazy, i always get what i want, since im the middle, and i didnt get what i wanted in the first 10 years.
My dad wears the pants. My mom subverts him all the time though.
My brother’s the self-appointed outcast- gay, moved out as early as possible, physics major.
I tend to think I’m the sane one. Everyone has their arbitrary breakdown every few months or so and I’m the one to calm them down. I’m also the quietest.
@ elcho – the quietest somehow always get the responsibility to take care of everyone else, non?
Agreed. The quietest are also the ones that everyone wants to be on their side; they get torn between two parties and often play the mediator.
I rule the roost but I let him think he is the boss sometimes
@scamp
We’ll be sure not to tell him

Thanks elchoopanebre, I’ve got a pretty good thing going and I wouldn’t want to spoil it! ha ha!!
great answers people. what about other flutherers?
I almost got busted on this one!! ha ha. I am at work, and he works here too, and he stopped by before clocking out just as I was typing my last reply.
Too funny!! He’s gone now, didn’t see a thing, and my reign continues.
pants: both parents (both work and both decide what happens with the house and stuff)
My mom definitely gets what she wants though, if she wants to fly to Europe then she flies to Europe. My sister is loud, obnoxious, and dramatic and I’m the quiet ‘black sheep’ of the family and no one ever knows what’s going on in my life.
