are you the youngest,oldest or in the middle child?

Question

does that effect your relationship with your parents?

I am the youngest and I think it does. Because they don't want me to be like my oldest brother.

Answer 1

yes, my parents are harder on me than my older sisters & brothers

Answer 2

I have 4 sisters and 3 brothers. I am the 3rd child. During my elementary days, I felt as if I was pressured by my two elder sisters because their supposed load of works at home would be given to me. Obedient child as i was, couldn't do anything even tho i was so hurt deep inside me. There were instances also when my mother bought new dresses for them. They would even tell me, when i grow up all their dresses would be mine. I felt i was not given attention by my parents, sometimes it crossed my mind - maybe i was not their real daughter/sister that's why i was treated like this.
When I was in high school, they were already attending college in the city, so i acted as the eldest for my other siblings. My parents saw how responsible i was as a daughter and as a sister not only in doing house works but also in my studies. I gained their trust and attention.
Years gone by, we're all married (i mean my siblings), I am happy I still have their trust and respect on me.
I can say, it does not matter either you're the youngest, oldest or in the middle, just as long as you do your part as a son/daughter/sister/brother - you are loved

Answer 4

yes, it does effect the relationship..

first born.. is usually spoiled.. while young.. because the parents are not burden with any other kids.. and they are so proud to how u off.. and want u to have everything..
the next child
money begins to get tighter.. and the new is beginning to wear off having kids..
next child..
well it is beginning to be really hard on the parents to share time.. money.. and keep up
this all depends on health issues.. and the sex of the child as well..
depends on whether a child has a stay at home mom or a working mom or
if the dad stays or leaves..
there a lot of factors that play into the effect of your relationship based on the circumstance at the time u are born.

Answer 5

If you want to be really specific about it I am the middle child but only by 2 minuets! I am a twin. :)
But I think if you are the oldest parents tend to lean on you to be the responsible one and the one who knows right from wrong. I really don't think it affects the relationship with my parents.

Answer 6

Oldest in my family. I am expect to take care of my brothers in my early days

Answer 7

im the oldest child, and yes it does.

my little sister is only a year and a half younger, and she gets to do all the same things as me, things that i didnt get to do at her age, probably because we are so close in age. and sometimes it angers me that she gets more space than i ever would have at her age.

Answer 8

i'm the oldest. i'm 11 and i have a 3 yr old sis. my parents are always buying everything for her. whenever i need like new notebooks, they tell me to use fuckn old ones. my parents love her more.

Answer 9

I'm an only child. I really don't like it. I have to be more independant and do things for myself, which, I'm sure will be more useful in life, but I also get bored easier and have a harder time finding things to do.

Answer 10

I'm the middle child and YES it does affect the relationship with my parents I'M TOTALLY IGNORED.

Answer 11

i'm the oldest and they always expected me to be there for the younger ones always look out for them (six of us) get them out of trouble and so-forth. i resented having to become a built in babysitter at an early age.
