in life. It is known that not only genetics affects the character and future fate of a child. An important role in the formation of personality is played by the "position" of the child in the family, the presence or absence of brothers and sisters and the order of their appearance in the world. Each person has its own distinctive features, which in general can be called a character. But what makes up the personality? The foundations are laid from birth, the manner of upbringing and education. It turns out that whether the only child in the family, whether he was born first or second, is also of great importance.

          First born child

  First born children usually follow their parents because they are their primary role models. If parents know how to inspire and support them, firstborns feel enthusiasm and desire to develop. Praise is very important for firstborns and develops their will to succeed. They tend to become perfectionists - they want to do everything as well as possible and don't like mistakes. First borns are born to lead.

         Middle child

   Middle children or second children usually want to take on the "leading" role of their older sibling or big brother. They match the behavior of the firstborn. For example, if the first child is more peaceful, it is likely that the middle child is more stubborn and adamant about getting their parents' attention. Often two children are very different, although the first child is somewhat of a role model for the second child. Middle children can be good mediators because their actions match those of the first child. In addition, middle children develop a strong personality because they want to stand out from an early age.

       Third child

   The arrival of a third child is usually accompanied by much greater confidence on the part of the parents. This confidence, in some cases, borders on a certain degree of disinterest. Sometimes there is much less attention paid to the third child than to the other two. Parents are usually most liberal with the third child, and he gets the most freedom. On the other hand, the last child receives both the love of his older siblings and a sense of competition with them. The youngest children are not burdened with so much responsibility, but on the other hand, they are more inclined to discover new ways and try new things.
