“Birth order” refers to whether we were the first child born in a family or one of many, or even the last.
Many researchers think that where we are in relationship to our siblings helps influence how we develop.

    Firstborns: Pressure on the oldest child comes in the form of形式 discipline訓練、紀律 and punishment. Besides, the firstborn gets the most work—they are frequently the first to be called for extra housework or errands跑腿;出門辦事.
A common characteristic of a firstborn is confidence自信 in being taken seriously by those around him.
It’s no wonder that firstborns often go on to positions of leadership.

The middle-born is independent獨立 and is loyal to his peer同齡人;同輩 group. And they learn to negotiate討論, (就…)談判 and compromise妥协, 折衷 and frequently work to avoid conflict. 

    Last-borns: Youngest children are typically the outgoing charmers迷人的人. They are also affectionate表示愛的;充滿深情的;有感情, uncomplicated, and sometimes a little absent-minded心不在焉的;健忘.
There is also another mainstream of qualities in most last-borns: rebellious(常使用武力)反叛的,造反的,反抗, critical, spoiled, and impetuous衝動的,魯莽的, 輕率—the “dark side” of the last-born. 

     Only child: Like firstborns, single children are often treated like little adults—sometimes to the point of feeling they never had a childhood.
Only children may become very critical批判的;挑剔的;謹嚴, cold-blooded, and never tolerant of mistakes or failures.
Or they may become everybody’s rescuers救援;營救;解救, the ones who agonize over the problems of others and always want to move in, take over, and solve everything.
