Steve Berliner asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)

Lois McMaster Bujold I haven't; I would have to stop and make it up. I would start by working out the age-spreads, though, and thinking through what I know of families with such large age gaps.

Generally benign, occasional friction, some competition for parental attention, but mostly distanced. Nikki is about 12 years older than his next-oldest sibs, and more than 20 years older than the youngest twins, almost old enough to be their parent himself.

Ta, L.
