I have 3 great kids ages 7, 3, and 21 months. I have a question for any one who is a middle child or for parents who have more than 2 kids. Can anyone share their experiences being a middle child or being a parent to your middle child? People always tell me, "oh, she's going to be interesting, cause she's the middle child". Or "she's going to be trouble, that middle child syndrome, you know". I must admit, my middle child is way different than my other 2. She seems as if she acts out way more and gets into things constantly and destroys things. I feel she does this for attention, but I don't feel that I show her any less attention than I show to my other 2 kids. I am a stay at home mom, so she's with me all day. My husband and I both only had 1 sibling, I was the oldest and he was the youngest, so neither of us have experience being in the middle. Is it really that hard to be in the middle? Anything special I should know? Any comments or advice would help. Thanks!
