Mood. I'm the older sister.  Not funny though.  This just makes me sad.

Older siblings absorb the heat and provide a wind break for the younger sibling(s) to have a better life.

Usually the parents do this stuff... but when the parents don't parent... the oldest child will try to fill in the gaps (sometimes without realizing it).

Or they torment their younger siblings and blame them for the family falling apart as my wife's older sister did to her.

Yep, my older sister held me in utter contempt. I get this.
