I know that people's personalities are sometimes related to their birth order. For example, firstborns seem to be more driven, responsive to authority, and sometimes bossy.

However, firstborns often tend to be very conventional/traditional. Most of the people on this forum are pursuing their college education in a very non-tradtitional way, so I'm curious....

"I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else." ~C. S. Lewis

I was the baby for 12 years then I was the middle child when my little sister was born, but in my family I am treated more like the first born I am looked to for help by my big brother and little sister and my Mom depends on me most.

I think not only birth order, but oldest, youngest, middle or only tells more.

I am number two out of three. The second born tends to be extremely loyal, and needs quite a bit of praise. Both are true of me. I adore being second born. I'm also the only girl, which is fun.
