i3itch Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 I've been hearing that birth order in families affects the personalities of siblings and their relationships throughout life. What can you tell me about it?Undoubtedly birth order affects us all. But as fascinating as it may be, birth order simply isn't the predictor for determining happiness, success and gratifying relationships.Nonetheless, some glaring personality traits seem to be related to the order of a person's arrival in a family. If you're the oldest, you're probably:* Most likely to succeed [Highly doubt that...] * Most conscientious and reliable [That's true...] * Conservative [Not at all...] * Self-critical[isn't everyone?!] * A perfectionist [sometimes...] * Able to enjoy the company of older people [Old people love me ...] * The link between your parents and siblings [?!? Mmkay...] In addition, oldest children are:* Seldom allowed to be just kids--their parents continually push them ahead and expect the most from them [Ain't that the fckin truth...] * Often dethroned by younger siblings [True...] * Convinced their siblings will outshine them [At the rate lil bros going, I doubt it...] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
