There's a lot of truth to that!  I've been lucky, though, as far as
climbing partners go--my younger brother and I started climbing
together, and we have roughly equal skills.  Not to mention the fact
that if only one of us were to come home from the mountain, Mother would
kill the surviving son, and we wouldn't want that to happen!

I'm encouraging him to develop really good safety/navigation/boat
handling skills so that we can do exposed paddling trips together.
