Study Exposes the Truth About Second Born Kids

Have you heard the news? Research has actually proven that first-born children are likely to be more intelligent and successful than their younger siblings! Studies have shown that the eldest kids are usually smarter and make mom and dad proud of every little talent. But if all this is true, then does it mean that the second-born is less successful?

According to licensed social worker Meri Wallace in Psychology Today, “birth order has a powerful impact upon children’s emotions, behavior, and personality development.” It’s not exactly fair that your personality can be decided for you based on when you come into this world compared to your siblings, but it looks like that may be the case.

SUMMARY:
- Let’s have a look at that perfect first-born. Big bro enjoyed mom and dad’s undivided attention. Everything he did was super cute and documented in pictures and home videos.
- He was probably super excited for your arrival and already loved and wanted to protect you. But that doesn’t mean you’ll avoid that jealous monster.
- Younger siblings tend to look up to their older brothers and sisters as role models. They are older, which means they’re usually taller and can do things more easily than the baby of the family.
- Dr. Larissa Hirsch mentions that a “second child brings increased confidence in your own abilities, knowledge and experience” as a parent. Raising a second child is slightly less stressful since you have already been through it once.
- Parents also have a little babysitter in the house with an older sibling. While they have to do the dishes or start dinner, they can ask the eldest to play with their baby brother or sister and keep them entertained with silly faces or telling stories.
- A second-born child is likely to avoid responsibility in order to be free to experience new things. Just because your older brother or sister seems to have it all together doesn’t mean they don’t look up to you for being brave and daring like they wish they could be.
- No one is perfect. And birth order may have an effect on how we turn out, but that doesn’t mean everything is already decided for you. In the end, research is just research and there will always be exceptions to the rule.
- By pushing the boundaries set in place by your parents, you may also be walking a thin line between good and bad. It’s great if you’re not afraid to take risks and have amazing adventures along the way.

Hey guys! How many siblings do you have? What's your birth order?

[thecutecorgi]

I'm a second child and yes i get treated the least favorite everytime and thanks to that i grew up without the needs of emotional support from others and i have to say, if there's one word to describe the second childs, it's independent.

[darrellcole]

I am first born. My sibling was my sister. She did look up to me at times. Success? I am not that successful, but I have lived for 79 yrs and counting.

[_ruted]

I am second born but it's the complete opposite in my situation.
My brother is reckless and is more of the extraverted side and the last time i checked i was an introvert. Shy and with only a few close friends, follows the rules of the house and doesn't even ask for anything from his parents even at his birthday.

Anyone let the video playing and came here to read the comments😂😂😂

I don’t find any of these theories accurate in the case of our family. 🤷‍♂️

O Common, .... I Am Younger Than My Brother,
He Scored Just 94% Marks in High School 😒
And i scored 97 marks In High School *Out of 600* ✌

I’m a second born. I agree with some of the things but growing up I was definitely way smarter than what my older sibling was at growing up in school 😂😂😂

[haidero]

Bright side: “older brothers are taller”
Me saying to my older brother : “ when will u go taller”

[Somebody-Somewhere]

I’m a second child and I definitely think I take more risks than my older sister.

[amadoudiallo]

I am a second born but was raised in the absence of my older brother. So I turned out more like a first born child.

[mtjloves]

Oh yeah, I’m a second-born child.
And I clearly object the research
See, because my old sister was just way too reckless and careless, breaking all the rules and not caring about anything at all
However on the other hand, I’m a responsible second-born child taking care of my small sister
She always looks up to me, not the eldest( If you ask her)
And I don’t look to her
So I guess that this research still needs a lot more digging

[ploopydigglehorn]

I'm second born, and I would mostly say this is true, except for ONE thing... I'M WAY MORE INTELLIGENT THAN MY OLDER BROTHER :)

[alexandru]

This article is 50% correct. A lot of things don't apply to me.

[satorus]

Well, I’m a first born. I can really say that being a first born is really hard. The expectations. I achieved a lot of things in such a young age but I grew tired of it. So as I grew up, I became a rebel. Me and my brother are complete opposites. He is most likely the more responsible one although I’m more smarter than him but he is more wiser I must say. “Madiskarte” siya. I have another brother. The youngest one. When me and my other brother are young, our parents are very strict to us. But to my youngest brother, they aren’t that strict anymore causing my youngest brother to develop this “bratty” attitude.

My older brother has always been really smart even as a baby. So when my parents were teaching him the colors it was super easy and only took one time for him to learn them. But then I came along and it took several times for me to learn my colors and my mom thought something was wrong with me because I didn’t learn as quick as my older brother. My pre-school teacher was the one who told my mom that I was normal and my older brother was just gifted.
So now, every time my mom brings that story up, I just say that he made me look bad because he’s so smart.

*You're never too old to learn and parents keep learning as well.*
Eventually they will learn to give their children freedom and how to treat them better.
That's the difference that will make the difference as a kid.

"They look up to you because your older and TALLER, "
