The Importance of Sibling Leadership

Mary: Wendy? May I come in? You really must set a better example for your brothers. They look up to you so much.

Wendy: That's what they have you for.

Mary: They need me to be their mother and your father to be their father. But they need you to be their big sister. You give them something that neither of us can. They will follow your lead, so you must be a good leader.

Wendy: How am I supposed to do that if I'm off at boarding school, Mother?

Mary: By going with your head held high to start with. If a young lady is lucky enough, at a certain age, she goes off to school. To get ready for the life ahead of her.

Wendy: What if I don't want that life?

Mary: It's what I did when I was your age.

Wendy: What if I don't want your life?

Mary: What is it that you're afraid of, my love?

Wendy: I want things to stay where they are.

Mary: The way they are? Wendy, look, you scarcely fit in your bed. You're growing up.

Wendy: Perhaps, I don't want to grow up.

Mary: You can't stop time, Wendy. It'll march on whether you like it or not. Just imagine all the things you would miss out on, if you didn't see where it took you. And all the things the world would miss... if you weren't there to do them.
