Having a Sister Makes You Happier
29-June-2017
You may think that happiness is hard to achieve, but it's actually the simplest things in life that can make you happy. It so happens that growing up with a sister can increase our chances of being happy.
Tony Cassidy, a professor at the University of Ulster in Southern Ireland, conducted the study. The latter proved this theory by testing 600 adults, and he noticed that women who grew up with a sister were more optimistic than the rest of the subjects.
"Sisters obviously motivate families to communicate and be close," he explained, and this phenomenon also applies to reconstituted families; "sisters tend to rely more on each other after a divorce".
So for all those who are lucky enough to have a sister, don't forget to thank her!
