Does Birth Order Really Matter In Life?.
Does being first born make people more responsible? If someone is the middle born child, is he or she going to be rebellious? Are first-born children inconsiderate and selfish or highly motivated? Birth order definitely affects your personality, your attitude, your children, you occupational choice, and even how well you get along with God (Leman 10). Birth order has an awful lot of research and plain old "law of averages" supporting the affect of birth order on personality. Therefore let me show you the differed in born orders and you tell me. The basic classifications of birth order: the oldest, the only, the middle, and the youngest. Each has its own set of advantages, as well as it own set of disadvantages. .
The first-born tend to be high achievers in whatever they do. Some traits customarily used to label first-born children include reliable, conscientious, well organized, more oriented toward authority, responsible and last but not least tough-minded. The first-born child typically the success story in the family they have that driven to succeed in high achievement fields, such as science, medicine, and law. For example, of the first twenty-three astronauts sent into space, twenty-one were first born or the very similar only child. In fact, all seven atronanauts of the original Mercury program were first-born children (Leman, 23). Another trend that is often typical of the first-born child is the tendency to choose careers that often involve leadership. For instance, fifty-two percent of the United State's presidents have been first born (Leman, 50). .
First born are "first come" and they are "first served" by eager parents who want to do this job of parenting better than anyone has done before (Leman, 42). This idea helps support research that indicated first-born children walk and talk earlier that of later born. They get more coaching, prodding, and encouragement that later born.
