Hosts Kristin Hocker and Meghan Caponiti sit down with their daughters Chloe Hocker and Olivia Caponiti to unpack what it’s really like to be the youngest in a big family.
They compare childhood memories (being sent up to bed while the laughter continues downstairs), the moment older siblings leave home, and how attention shifts when you’re the “last one standing.”
The conversation explores pros and cons, built-in mentorship from older siblings, thicker skin from constant teasing, and the occasional feeling of being overlooked, along with how modern communication (texts, FaceTime, private stories) keeping parents and siblings closely connected through college.
College transitions, homesickness, and sports schedules reveal how support rotates between parents and siblings at different stages. The group also talks about bittersweet milestones, engagements, holidays, changing last names, and the comfort of knowing the family will always get together again.
