Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm were two philologists and they eventually become two well known folklorists. They have collected translated and published stories of all social classes in order to preserve the traditions. The young maiden was given a key to the forbidden room that contained the bodies of Bluebeard’s victims and caused her to get blood on the key which she could never wash off. Bluebeard saw the blood on the key and made attempt to murder the young maiden for her disobedience. The young maiden’s three older brothers heard her screams and killed Bluebeard in order to save their sister. It was interesting to see how quickly the brothers came to their sister’s aid just when she was about to be murdered by Bluebeard and this shows how close the brothers were to their sister. I will be using this story to back up my thesis that the strong, positive sibling relationships in the “Bluebeard” trope are due to the established birth order roles understood and acted upon by all the siblings which are similar to how it is perceived in the modern world. But I will explain why older siblings feel the need to protect their younger siblings.
Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm were two philologists and they eventually become two well-known folklorists. They have collected translated and published stories of all social classes in order to preserve the traditions. The sorcerer would disguise himself as a beggar to kidnap women, so he can make them be his would-be brides. He first would take the oldest sister and take her to his home before giving her the keys to all the rooms including the forbidden room. He also gave her egg and told her do not go into the forbidden room or die. She disobeyed him by going to the forbidden room and finding the bodies of women that the sorcerer murdered. She got blood on the egg and sorcerer found out that she disobeyed him then he killed her. The second sister was kidnapped by sorcerer and she suffered the same as her older sister. The third sister was smart enough to put egg in the basket before entering the forbidden room where she found her two murdered sisters. She brought them back to life and hid them in the basket which she made the sorcerer carry the basket to her family’s home. The third sister just dress like a bird and escaped. As soon as the sorcerer and his friends arrived in the house, they were burned alive by the angry mob that the sisters have sent. It was interesting to see how far that siblings will go to bring back their dead brother or sister back to life. The story seems to portray the third sister as the brightest out of three sisters and ends up being the hero who saves her two sisters and herself. I will be using this story to discuss the importance of sibling bonds and what lengths that siblings will go to bring their dead brother or sister back to life.
[bookmark: _Hlk2253030] Ernst Meier is a German professor of oriental studies and folklorist, who also published studies of Swabian folklore. He also collected German folk tales just like the Grimm brothers. The young maiden in this story has three older brother and older sister, and her father forces her to marry Bluebeard. She was given the keys to all the rooms including the forbidden room and she used the key to unlock the door to the forbidden room. She saw the bodies of the women that bluebeard killed and she got so scared that she dropped the key in pool of blood. She had a hard time getting the blood off the key and eventually King Bluebeard came back from his long journey. He asked the young maiden for the key and he saw the blood on the key then he figured out that she went into the forbidden room. He decided that he was going to kill her, but she went to her sister for advice and her sister told her to use the whistle that their brothers have gave her. She took her sister’s advice and used the whistle to summon her brothers, so they can save her from being killed. The brothers stabbed bluebeard in the chest killing him and they were able to save their sister. It shows that the younger siblings will often turned to their older siblings for advice or help when they are in trouble or in a life and death situation. I will be using this story to back up my thesis in paper 3 and show that the younger sibling will often depend on the older sibling for advice.

The authors review the literature on sibling relationship in childhood and adulthood and they trace themes from Foundational research and theory then they focused on empirical research during the last twenty years. The Article documents siblings’ importance in family life, sources of variation in sibling relationship qualities, and the significance of sibling for child and adult growth and adjustment. According to the article, sibling influences emerge not only in context of siblings’ frequent and often emotionally intense interactions, but also by virtue of siblings’ role in larger family system dynamics. The article also explains that siblings are the building blocks of family structure and key players in family dynamics. Their work involves the sibling aspect of relationships and how it plays a role in families. It seems that their work takes a psychoanalytic approach with siblings’ relationship and influences in childhood and adulthood. This article will help me understand the siblings’ relationships and influences in more of a modern world element.

Daniel I. Rees is a instructor in the Department of Economics at the University of Colorado Denver and the Editor-in-Chief of the Economics of Education Review. One of the methods that authors use is that they use data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health to examine the connection between the birth order and risky adolescent behavior is driven by the difference in the level of parental supervision. According to the article, kids with older siblings are likely to engage with risky behavior than their old sibling counterpart. The authors believe that the connection between the birth order and risky adolescent behavior might reflect on the influence of older siblings. Another argument that the authors made is that the parents supervise the older sibling more than they do with the younger sibling. Their research offers me some insight on whether older siblings have an affect the younger sibling’s risky behavior and if the parents have a role in the younger child’s risky behavior. I will be using this article shown how the older sibling influences the younger sibling’s behavior.

There is a lot of emphasis on developmental and cultural difference as they influence sibling dynamic and the group leader’s role. Group therapy offers numerous possibilities for patients to interact with leaders and members as they have interacted with their siblings. Their logic of their argument is that sibling issues arises in the practice of group psychotherapy. I will be using this article to understand the sibling dynamic and the influence of sibling relationship. It will help me understand me understand why there is sibling issues like sibling rivalries in the modern world.
