Like brothers and sisters I used to know

We were riding home from Target yesterday and I told Will and Abby we could all have a piece of candy after we carried in the groceries (yes, two starbursts are a great bribe to get them to help with the groceries).
Will cheered: "yeah, candy!"
Abby repeated: "yeah, candy!"
With a wicked smile, Will then leaned over to his sister and said, "Abby, you don't get any candy," which made Abby cry. Why, why did he do that? I am now calming Abby by promising candy and yelling at Will not to bother his sister.

Immediately, I flashed back to my brother tormenting me through my entire young life. So it begins at ages 2 and 4.
