    为什么我们不一样

Have you ever wondered why you are the way you are? What makes you different from your brothers and sisters?

People have asked these questions for centuries, and researchers are trying to answer them. One idea they're thinking is that birth order influences the person we become. In general, the oldest child is described as confident, organized, responsible, and determined(有决心的)to get what he or she wants. Oldest children are seen as born leaders. Because they're the oldest, their younger brothers and sisters sometimes see them as bossy (专横的), or too willing to tell other people what to do.

The middle child may be described as being competitive in order to get more attention. They sometimes feel that their family give them less attention because they are in the middle. Because middle children tend to avoid conflict(冲突), they can be friendly and easygoing. They are usually more influenced by their friends than by their family, perhaps because they get more attention from their friends.

The youngest child is described as the baby of the family. They can be spoiled(宠爱) by their parents, who spend a lot of time with them and often give them what they want. Youngest children enjoy being the center of attention, and they are seen as outgoing, open­minded, and likely to take risks.

What if you're an only child? Many people think that a child with no brothers or sisters grows up wanting lots of attention. Some think they're selfish, or unwilling to share with others.
