It looks like the eldest daughters have the universal experience and struggle all together as people in the comment sections relate to the content. 

 

“I thought I was the only one who experienced this” is one of the comments that you’ll see a lot under this kind of content. 

 

The often scenarios that the eldest daughters relate to are Generational trauma, pressure from parents or relatives, and wanting to move out of the country to start a new life.

 

It’s odd and intriguing that there are lots of people who also experience those but it can also be a way to find comfort in each other’s words.

 

 If there is one thing people know is that the eldest daughters are the man!
