I'm really spoiled being the last child. I don't think his affected him much
Yes I set the standard I broke them in. Troy is an only child
Don't know
Yea bc I'm the baby so I'm kind of spoiled or he would say a lot of spoiled lol & he's the first born so he's protective & caring & wants to make sure everything is taken care of which I love about him.
Both ,we both have a little exp in both areas
Yes I'm selfish and I feel like I can get away with things.
Yes.
We're both the oldest and tend to be leaders. We take on a lot of responsibilities, him even more so than I. We are both pretty standard "oldest children."

No definitely not.
I think so! I'm pretty typical "oldest child", and he's the baby of his family. But it works :)

I was an experiment being the first... So I'm not as well educated or smart as my brother. Also being the first born gives you more restrictions.
We both are the oldest.. Pretty much had some of the same shit happen
No
I think birth order affects everyone, and if you're an only child - it's something completely different - age gaps have a lot to do with things too... nothing to prominent though...
I don't believe in that. We were just raised differently.
