From the page: "The plight of the older sibling" ME: I love being the baby of the family. Everyone favors you! It wold suck being the oldest. I remember at a work party several years ago I forgot where I was and as they sliced the cake I said, "can I have the roses?" My friends always teased me and said the writers of the old tv show "The Dinosaur Family" based the baby dinosaur who would say, "I'm the baby, gotta love me!" on me lol. Being the baby does rock. Especially being the only boy with 2 older sisters and a Catholic Irish mom. Till she croaks, and your sisters get revenge and your friends call you "Cinderfella"; that part sucked. And no fucking prince ever came lol.

I knew it! My parents always tried to deny it, but they were ALWAYS tougher on me growing up than they were on my little brothers. From the page: ""Parents have an incentive to play tough with their kids, especially the older ones, to try to establish this signal to the other children that they're not a pushover," says Joseph Hotz, an economics professor at Duke University and a co-author of the study."
