Birth Order Research Essay
The way you are raised really helps create who you are as a person. Your birth order also affects your outcome. The Birth order research is very accurate because it describes me very well.
  The research describes middle children as the complete opposite of the first born. I find this to be very true. My older brother and I are not very similar personality-wise. We may look very similar, but we act very different. My older is very rude. He ignores a lot of people. I am not like this. I do not like to treat people badly. That is just one way that I feel that the research is accurate.
  Another thing the research says about middle children that accurately describes me is that middle children often feel left out of the family. I feel this way about my family. Ever since I could remember, my family has treated me differently than my siblings. This has made me feel like they prefer them over me. I feel very left out. The research also says that middle children don't have many pictures of family. I don't have any pictures of my family. The research accurately described my family life.
The birth order research is very accurate. It described me , a middle child, very well. It just goes to show, the way you grow up and the order you are born in really can shape who you are.
