I am a young mother(30 years old) of 3 ages 12,10,and 8 years old. And my middle chid is something else.He likes to argue,fight,get his point across (he has a explanation for everything).The other 2 are real cool and laid back but that middle child keep me on my toes at all times.So you are not the only one!!!!!

My middle son is sooo laid back compared to my other boys. My 3 sons are 7, 6, and 1. My 3rd son gets into everything...more than my 1st 2 did. My 1st son plays, but is pretty greedy and has no remorse. My 2nd seems to be the most well adjusted one of them all.
Maybe your middle child has the middle child syndrome. Being the age she is, she is probably going through the stage where she is learning how far to get with you. Also, she is still young and might be jealous from all the attention your baby gets. Try to make sure that she gets some Mommy and Daddy time all to herself. Even if it is just a trip to the grocery store with you.

I'm not a mother of three children, but I'm a father of 3 boys (6, 4 & 2), so I hope it's o.k. for me to weigh in. Our oldest is the most mellow of the 3 for sure. It seems like they keep getting worse as they go though! Our middle guy got in more trouble then the oldest and the little guy gets in more trouble than the other 2 combined! The scary thing is that my wife wants to have another! :^)

yes your middle child is always the one to get in to more troble because they fill left out because your first born isalways first and the last is youngest and gets more attention than the middle childand the middle child always mis behaves because they think the other too is getting all your attention she is she wanting your attention too.

Nope.
Could be the age, could be that she's fulfilling your expectations. Could be that she really really needs your attention and doesn't know a better way to get it.
My middle girl never really caused trouble, per se, she just seemed kind of lost, because she didn't get all the freedom and fun of the older child, and none of the attention that the baby got. I really worked hard to let her know that I appreciated all the things that made her special, and helped her develop them. Now she's seven, and she's a great photographer, has a hilarious sense of humor, and knows where she belongs in the world.
Just love her....give her lots of positive attention. She'll get older and things will change.

I have 3 girls, 9, 4, and 2. It is a close call who gets into the most trouble at our house. They all take turns.

My middle gets into the most, but he's the only boy. I expect him to be more physical and rough than the girls. His misbehaving usually involves some type of play-fighting and a younger sister crying.

I don't have 3 kids but my husband came from a family of 3 boys and the middle boy was all of the above while the oldest and my husband (youngest) were good!

It's called middle child syndrome. My middle child seems to try and seek attention alot more. Whether she has to do it by behaving badly or not really has nothing to do with her and everything to do with me.
