Are younger siblings more likely to try growing up too fast?
I notice that the kids who were allowed to wear crop tops in 5th grade, unsupervised iPhones, full makeup and snuck out were more likely to be the youngest. It might not be true though. That particular group were the ones who tried age-inappropriate things. I'm sure there were firstborns and only children involved too. But generally, a lot of them had older siblings. The most "popular" girl back then had three older brothers… Just like most of her friends. Oddly enough, these children often say/think that their parents don't care or know about them doing these things.
I think
In my family, it was the oldest one who tested all the boundaries, and did things too early. But you may be right. Younger kids may resent not being able to do what their older siblings are doing.
In families I knew where there were three kids, it was the middle one who had a hard time behaving well.
- When did Minecraft become so popular with younger kids? Is it mainly because they all have iPhones and ipads now so they play the pocket edition and not the PC? My younger cousins are obsessed with it but they didn't even know it was a PC game because they had the app
- Trying to print photos at an online photo printer. Every time I try, I get an error message about the size being too small Different pictures; from different cameras; iphones and actual good digital cameras - get similar error if I try to do 8 x 10. I'm at a loss as to how to fix this.
- Other iPhone category growing to half my total space? The "other" category on my iphone 4 is now consuming about half of my 8gb. I don't know what it is or how to get rid of it. I do know that NONE of my apps are taking up alot of space and oi only have under 20 apps total… IPhoto doesn't have alot and neither does my music or videos. WHAT IS HAPPENEING?
- Isn't it sad kids are growing up so fast these days? My little cousins are more interested in ipads, iphones, facebook and all that other bs… When they should be playing with dolls, pollypocket, toy cars… You know real toys, the stuff we had in the 90s. Hank Scorpio calm down… You seem angry Chandler bing - i don't think thats true… My grandma would not agree with you.
