Answer 1

I am a middle child no changing that.
No I did no like being a middle child, I don't care any more don't have a lot to do with any of the family now.
I am out now like the black sheep of the family. Not treated the same as the others.
3 big sis, me little bro, little sis.
I am nice to others, treat other the way I want to be treated, I treat my children as individuals each one is treated in the same way.
Think that I am not good enough, always think that I am wrong, think that others always see or think the worst of me.
I was treated like a personal slave for my mother, and treated worse than a dog by my father.
I would not change anything that happened to me I came through as a pretty good person (i know some don't) I don't believe that I am a bad unwanted useless person anymore.
I guess I have got emotional scarring, yes I was neglected, I do understand that my parents did the best that they could do with what they had been taught and with how they were bought up. I have forgiven them both but will not have anything more to do with them a person can only take so much hurt before they say no more and they finally close the door. I also think because of the way I was bought up I chose destructive relationships without realizing it. That's stopped now.

Answer 2

I'm now an adult so can remember as a kid, and also how it impacted me.
1./ would still want to be middle, next choice, the youngest
2./ now - yes, then - no.
3./ No.
4./ 3 sibs - 2 older, 1 younger
5./ self reliant & self sufficient, non judgemental ( I think very open minded.), smart and industrious.
6./ procrastinator, dreamer, ..
7./ now, very well. they respect me very much.
8./ I was aware they favoured my other sibs. I did feel slighted most of my life growing up as they gave attention, praise to the youngest and the oldest.
9./ Not in my case. I felt like an "auxillary child" but never neglected or forgotten, just not as important growing up as the other two. ( I share middle spot so at least I wasn't alone!)
