From an excerpt in a book that she had read it said that middle or second born child often have the sense of not belonging. They fight to receive attention from parents and others because they feel many times they are being ignored or dubbed off as being the same as another sibling. Being in the middle a child can feel insecure. The middle child often lacks drive and looks for direction from the first born child. Sometimes a middle child feels out of place because they are not over achievers and like to go with the flow of things.
Being a middle child would mean they are loners. They really don’t like to latch on to a person in a relationship, therefore they have trouble keeping one due to lack of interest. Not liking to take the limelight for anything, they are not over achievers and just simply work enough work to get by, and typically that goes with school as well as a career. They are however very artistic and creative. If forced to use abilities they will work well, but do not work well under pressure. They often start several projects but rarely keep focused long enough to finish a project. The best career move for a middle child would be along the lines of using their creative. Going into a writing or journalism career, and into a career that they could freely express themselves would be good. Anything that would have hours that are flexible, and projects that frequently changed would be good for a middle born child. Since relationships are not of high importance to a middle child, often times they are alone. However, the best possible match for a middle child would be a last born.
Now Alexia is a lot of these. She is a bit of a loner but would be a fantastic person to have as a best friend - she has lots of acquaintances. She does lack drive and looks to Rebecca for guidance especially more so now that they are teenagers. When she was younger it was the other way round. She is definitely a go with the flow kid and has a who cares attitude. With schooling it describes her to a T - she does enough to get by, is very creative, does not work well under pressure (NCEA was a big drama last year) and has a million things on the go at the same time.
How very interesting - thanks Hay. Just might have to look up now about the oldest and youngest.
On the scrapbooking front I have finished Micheles CJ. It is the last one I had to do. Have really enjoyed doing them and can't wait to get mine back. Will start posting photos after the weekend of those that have theirs back. Everyone else will have to wait - don't want to spoil the surprise. I wasn't going to do another one straight away but have had an absolutely brilliant idea for one so just might - will depend on the costs.
