Middle Child Syndrome?
Middle Child Syndrome
Dr Kevin Lehman, a psychologist in the
United States, has conducted extensive
research on birth order in a family and
has some interesting findings.
He has, for example, found that
middle children, that is not the eldest or
the youngest, usually grow up to be welladjusted
and easy-going adults.
These children are often the diplomats
of the family and learn early how
to get along with different personality
types.
However, middle children also tend to
keep their thoughts and feelings inside
and will often avoid conflict at all cost.
These characteristics can cause
problems later in life, especially when
they get married.
When raising a middle child, teach
him or her to open up and talk about
what is going on in his or her life.
Parents are urged to spend a lot of
one-on-one time with them, just to make
them feel special. Most important of all,
they must never compare them with their
other siblings.
