[quote=Anonymous]that was the dynamic in my family of 3. We are G/G/B. Older sister, me, younger brother. My sister and I are extremely close and always best friends (20 mos apart) and that made little brother (2.5 yrs younger than me) the outsider a lot of the time. Because of that experience, i always wanted either 2 or 4 kids, not 3. My mom says she wishes she had had a 4th. But, so much of it is personality driven plus the gender mix so it's really hard to forsee how the relationships will work out. My BIL & SIL have three and I think they have a better gender mix-- older girl, then two boys. With the odd gender as the older kid there's less of her wanting to be part of the boys group because she's more focused on her friends and activities. It seems the younger siblings are more likely to be looking up to and wanting to be a part of what the olders are doing.[/quote]
