maybe. maybe oldest kids tend to draw from themself more because they didn't have an older kid to set an example. i'm an oldest child. i'm pretty introverted. i kind of rely on myself for answers vs. others.
note: introverted does not mean shy at all.
introversion-
the state of or tendency toward being wholly or predominantly concerned with and interested in one's own mental life
extroversion-
the act, state, or habit of being predominantly concerned with and obtaining gratification from what is outside the self

Nope, sure don't. I am the oldest child (with one younger sister) and we are both equally extroverted. No shyness or shame in this family.

No...These types of personality definitions are based upon a person's overall temperment, which I believe is genetically endowed.

It can be one factor in a myriad of other things that have input into how we turn out as adults.

No, personality is the determining factor as to whether you are outgoing or not.
