I'm a middle born, but have always had te first born personality. Even now, everyone thinks i am the oldest and my 2 older sister are younger. The little brother, though, there is no mistaking he is the youngest.

I'm number 8 of 11 so you do the math. birth order starts over in larger families and sometimes comes in groups of 4 with 2 in the middle. I've been pegged as the oldest out of the younger 4 because that last 2 are twins. And I see it. interesting stuff

*First-borns*

Positives: They are natural leaders and often high achievers. The majority of politicians, spokespersons and managing directors are first-borns. They frequently live with a sense of entitlement and even superiority. They often come in two flavours: compliant nurturers/caregivers or aggressive movers and shakers.

Both are in control; they just use different methods. As a rule, first-borns are picky, precise people - they pay attention to detail - tend to be punctual, organised, and competent. They want to see things done right the first time. They don't like surprises.

Negatives: They are often moody and occasionally lack sensitivity. They can be intimidating, particularly by pushing people too hard or refusing to take no for an answer.
Sometimes they can be a bit 'know-it-all', and often they are poor at delegating - largely because they don't trust other people as much as they trust themselves. They also tend to be bossy, perfectionists and overly-conscientious.

LMAO....oh it's pretty much dead on
