I think it did affected me. from what I known it affected me in my way of thinking, my temper, the level of responsibility, empathy and love. being a last child definitely shaped the way I lived and the person who I am now. I think it affected him too. he's an only child so I definitely see in him that he's mature and very responsible. he always keep's my feet on the ground
no
Um yea! I'm a middle child. I feel it. I hate it. He's technically a middle child and the oldest. It didn't effect him though.
No los dos somos los hijos mayores
I think so for me. I do not feel a deep responsibility for others actions like my older brother does. I do not feel like a neglected "middle child" like my middle brother does. I am proudly the impetuous youngest! Brian is perfect and seems like an oldest child. He is very responsible and paternal.
no
Absolutely. Third child but first son. Had two older sisters that helped to raise me. Wisdom is learning through other people's experiences.
I think it affected her as well. Big sister looks out for her little.

No it didn't really affect me at all but I do believe it affected her quite a bit
I believe so bc of our race and gender
Nope. Just always the coolest ones.
I'm the oldest of 3, independent & my parents were new so they let me have a lot of liberties that they didn't let my brothers have. He's the same but different... He's the youngest of 8 but 5 years after the next youngest. As a child, I think he did everything his parents wanted and was "the perfect child." As a teen & adult he became fiercely independent and branched out to distinguish himself from his brothers. He think outside the box, is a charismatic leader & a natural entrepreneur.
It affected me quite a bit, but not him I'd say
You're the calm and collected middle child, I think it's given you patience and understanding.
I think as a youngest child I'm probably fairly impatient.

There wouldn't be another birth order considering I am the only child.
My partner may have been more dominant if he was the first child, but I wouldn't like it that way.
He could also be more spoiled if he was the last child, and I definitely would not like it.
