Does anyone else put any stock in birth order and the effects it has on personality? For example, I was not surprised to find out CW is the eldest and Nitelight was the baby. Not that any of that is good, bad, or otherwise, just different.
I am the oldest of 4-I have 2 younger sisters & a younger brother. I also have a step-sister & 2 step-brothers. I think birth order does play a part. I have always been the responsible big sister, even in the past year, I am the one who ends up taking care of everyone else. It drives my sister crazy, because she wants to take care of me, but old habits die hard.
I'm the baby of the family. I have one brother who is 15 years older than I am. I get the feeling that I was a surprise baby, LOL.
The weird thing is, my brother is 47 years old, yet he is just as irresponsible and thoughtless as a kid. So I'm the responsible one in the family. Now that is a sobering thought.
Interesting you would meantion birth order Kitten. I am a twin and I seem to notice this more often when I meet other twins.. Most of the time, the oldest twin seems to be the bossy one.. For some reason, it doesn't hold true for twin who were born by C-section, I think most of the time, the doctor just grapped the wrong one. As for siblings, I have a brother and a younger sister. Get along better with the younger sister..
I'm an only child with a half brother (can you say loser and just like my fucking asshole of a father) So I rather be my moms only little baby yuppper thats me.....Only thing is when I was growing up we didn't have money..So I'm used to being poor...I rather have love....
im right in between 2 brothers..i suffer from middle child syndrome but at the same time im spoiled rotten bc im the only girl..makes for one pretty messed up kid
Well as some of you know, I'm the youngest of 13 but I'm only close to 2 of them.... and the rest of them don't want a thing to do with me. So fuck them... and Actually, as far as my dads side of the family goes (He had only 2 children himself), I'm the Younger brother of an ONLY CHILD.. Sooo I Guess they can just Kiss My Ass too....
BTW thanks for the Memories and Making me smile once more in this depressing holiday season, tho it is not so deperessing for me this year
I'm the baby and only girl of the family. I have two older (half) brothers. And oh, what a bitch it was growing up!
The eldest would beat up on the younger brother, who would in turn beat up on me, which would make the eldest beat up on him. It was an endless cycle, that started at 7am every morning.
Ahh, it's nice to be adults. We all get along great now and are very close. I love my moronic, overprotective, pain in the ass big bros.
I absolutely believe birth order can have a big affect on personality. Isn't it true that a very large percentage of presidents have been either oldest or only children?
Of course there are many other factors coming into play in shaping a personality, so it can't always hold true. I don't think I follow the profile of an only child.
Oh, and I have three step-sisters, but happily, I never had to live with them.
I have a younger(hes not little anymore at 6'3" 280 lbs) brother who is 17, two stepsisters 27 and 23, and two stepbrothers whos mother (my stepmother) tells them they are too good for me and my brother!
