Summary Language acquisition may be significantly impacted by sibling relationships. This study examines the differing language abilities among impoverished siblings. The purpose of this study is to describe the relationship between having siblings and language acquisition in impoverished children in a rural elementary school. This qualitative research is conducted through the use of a case study. Data were gathered through interviews and observational field notes. The findings indicated themes related to The Leader and The Follower, and implications are shared for both parents and educators for supporting language acquisition for siblings who fall under these two themes.
