[quote=Anonymous]I definitely think there are personality traits that tend to develop along sibling order (or only child) lines. The adult only children I know are not necessarily selfish, but they are much more needy and need feedback more - on social media, in person, they harbor extra sensitivity against being excluded. They like to talk about themselves a lot more. Growing up in a medium-large family, you learn to need less feedback from others, you are pretty ok with spending time alone, and exclusion happens - just because your siblings are invited places and get to do things, doesn't mean you can too. Tough cookies. That's life. It's not always this way, but it does seem to be the case with my adult friends and acquaintances who are only kids. It does make it harder for me to relate to them.[/quote]
