[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's the middle child you lose the bond with, if you had it to begin with. The baby is often the favorite, or the one you are most connected to. The middle loses their role.[/quote] As a parent of three, both my middle child and I would agree with this. I wouldn't say we lost the bond, but she rightfully feels like the stereotypical middle child at times.[/quote] Me too! I'm the superfluous middle that wishes my parents never had me.[/quote] +1, my role in the family has always been to have no problems or issues and to take up no space and require no attention or resources. I don't really understand what the point was. My older sister also always resented me and her feelings were validated by my parents. My younger brother has special needs. There simply was nothing left for me.[/quote]
