Birth Order

  1. Birth Order
    What order of birth do you fall under?

    Are you the first child?
    The middle child?
    The baby of the family?
    Or maybe you're an only child...

    How might your placement in your
    family's birth order affect your personality?
    What do psychologists say are common
    personality traits in the ordered children?
    Do you think those traits fit you?

    The Eldest
    ☆ perfectionist
    ☆ over-achiever
    ☆ natural leader
    ☆ cautious
    ☆ motivated

    The Middle
    ◇ adaptable
    ◇ independent
    ◇ rebellious
    ◇ people-pleaser
    ◇ peacemaker

    The Youngest
    ♤ outgoing
    ♤ manipulative
    ♤ charming
    ♤ uncomplicated
    ♤ self-centered

    The Only Child
    ♧ confident
    ♧ sensitive
    ♧ natural leader
    ♧ responsible
    ♧ mature

    I'm the oldest of three, and I think
    the traits fit me well except for the
    'over-achiever' part. Sometimes I can be one,
    but not often enough that I would
    consider it a personality trait.

    So...
    How about you?
     
  2. Middle child
     
  3. Do you think those traits describe you?
     
  4. I am the middle and the youngest to a T
     
  5. I'm the youngest, but I feel more like the eldest tbh. ?

    PS: Cute ass thread tbh. ?
     
  6. Thanks ?
     
  7. Hm, not bad. This cute thread guessed 99.9% correctly ?
     
  8. Adopted
    According to the court(s), I’m legally the only child.. I’d say that all of the traits match me well.

    Birthmother
    I know my mother has had multiple children, so I’m biologically the eldest child.. I’m not an over-achiever though.

    Other?¿
    My step-mom (married to my adoption dad, aka my grandpa) has 2 daughters who are both older than me. Being the youngest, I prefer staying in to going out (unless it’s camping); I’m not manipulative at all; Charming ?? nah..  ; Definitely not self-centered but definitely complicated (have you even read my post?????)..

    So yeah, that’s my complicated story ?
     
  9. YO I'M THE YOUNGEST, I HAVE ONE BIG BROTHER AND ITS SO ACCURATE PLS LOVE ME
     
  10. So you're literally almost all of them combined.
     
  11. I would consider that an only child tbh. I have a younger step sister but i didbnt live with her all my life so i don't think it affected the way i grew up and my personality
     
  12. Yeah, basically. Explaining it seemed better than “I’m 3/4 of them” and making you all guess wtf is wrong with me ?
     
  13. True, true.
     
  14. :lol: Yeah I'm nosy too so I always like hearing people's bg stories tbh
     
  15. Oldest of 4 and that describes me that's scary...
     
  16. This thread has been done before. I am the oldest.
     
  17. I'm the eldest and the traits were pretty accurate ? there were some that were iffy, but were right
     
  18. First child tbfh and the traits aren't true for me ?
     
  19. Im the eldest and aaaa yes
     
  20. Mine is probably prettier :(
