Eldest daughter role combines first-born experience with gendered expectations of caregiving for younger siblings and eventual care for aging parents. Many eldest daughters shoulder emotional burdens described as personal, parental, and sibling traumas. Eldest daughters commonly report anxiety, acting as unpaid therapists to mothers, and adopting a 'CEO' mindset that no one else can do tasks correctly. Humor and social media serve as coping mechanisms, with tweets, memes, and rants used to share relatable moments. HuffPost solicits membership support while emphasizing fearless, inclusive, fact-based journalism and gratitude for reader support.
