Who actually cares about this besides a middle child? Who actually even knows this term exists besides a middle chid? You know whoever made up that term was definitely the peanut butter and jelly of their sibling sandwich.
Ok I just looked it up and according to the internet, the guy who first thought of this, Dr. Alfred Adler (an Austrian psychoanalyst), IS a middle child. Man I totally called that. And I was just kidding. I knew it though. I can sniff us out anywhere. I also found this quote from an interview with a woman who wrote a book on middle children that I thought was hilarious. The quote’s aimed at parents of middle children:
“Be aware that middles don’t cry wolf: A study of teens revealed that although middles are far less likely to attempt suicide than other birth orders, when they do, they are eight times more likely to need medical intervention.”
So, we’re pretty cool because we won’t try to kill ourselves for the most part. But if we do, we’re going to go all out and make sure that you notice us. Go big or go home. This is our time to shine.
Wait a second, I just thought of something. If we need medical attention is it because we didn’t do it right? Man we really do need special attention. Middle children to the end. I can hear my mom now: “If you’re going to do something, do it right”. Not helping Mother! Don’t you know I’m a middle child? I’m sensitive!
