Forces that keep the siblings apart

Sonia’s parents raised the family on a principle of shortages. The concept of there being not enough also applied to the attention available to their children. Ingrained in them that the winner takes it all, the older siblings rival for the basics and for spoils. Given to fend for selves within family, it is little wonder that the siblings go on to apply a divided effort to the wider world.
