Yes you're not cursed but don't be envious if your younger brother does better than you.

ehie: Firstborn children tend to be more extroverted and confident, while second-born kids are more rebellious and open to new experiences, he says. The youngest child is usually the most creative and can be manipulative to get his or her way.

Clearly, birth order affects personality, but what about career advancement and success? Several studies show that firstborns and only children usually reach higher educational goals, obtain greater prestige and acquire more net worth, while the middle child is likely to struggle a bit more.

"A child's position in the family impacts his personality, his behavior, his learning and ultimately, his earning power," says Michael Grose, author of "Why Firstborns Rule the World and Last Borns Want to Change It

Most people have an intuitive knowledge that birth order somehow has an impact on development, but they underestimate how far-reaching and just how significant that impact is. "

Here's a look at the effect birth order may have on you:

Firstborn

Personality: Firstborns are ambitious, assertive, dominant and disciplined compared to their younger siblings. They're determined to succeed yet fearful of losing position and rank, and are defensive about errors and mistakes, Dattner says.

Compensation: A recent survey by CareerBuilder.com found that workers who were the firstborn child in their families were more likely to earn $100,000 or more annually compared to their siblings.

Professions: The oldest tend to pursue vocations that require higher education, like medicine, engineering or law. Firstborns from the CareerBuilder.com survey reported working in jobs in government, engineering, pharmacy and science. Ohio State University researchers found firstborn children were more likely to pursue "intellectual" jobs.

Job level: Workers who are firstborn are more likely to report holding a vice president or senior management position, according to the survey.

there are challenges and there are challenges, the land is curse because of man not because of firstborn, so if you can not overcome the available challenges be it first or last son you are just on your own.

I dont believe this at all. Its a lie from the pit of hell.

Was Jesus Christ not the first born of Mary & Joseph?

Whether first born or not, there are so many challenges we face as Nigerians. So many first born were given birth to outside wedlock even when the parents were not ready for marriage. This creates more challenges for the parents as well as the child.

From the Bible point of view,
For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God (Rom. 3:23). The Bible does not vindicates second born or whatever.

Lastly, how many second, third or whatever position is enjoying Nigeria with our present situation?. Also, whatever your position in the family from any of the 1st world countries, you all have equal opportunities of becoming somebody in life.

The Bible was not written by Nigerians, for Nigerians but for the whole world.

[quote author=ehie]No need to rejectn anything....
scientic fact...

THE YOUNGEST CHILD VS THE FIRST CHILD

If you have an elder brother,there is a likelihood that you may be gay

Having an older brothers increases the probability that you will be gay.

It's called the Fraternal Birth-Order Effect, and it's quite clearly documented. For each son a woman produces, the chances that the next one will be spending his first 20 years inside a closet increase by 28 to 48 percent. By the fourth or fifth, you might begin to notice a puzzling affinity for musical theater.

Scientists think that this phenomenon is caused by a mother's body reacting to her son's foreign dude-proteins, and making antibodies to fight them. Each time another boy passes through a woman's system, these antibodies get stronger, and their target is your masculinity. We wish we were making that up. Before you're even born, your older brothers actually gang up on you and attempt to beat the straight out of you for nine months.

If you have an elder brother then you may be shorter


Science has proven that having older siblings noticeably stunts your growth. A scientific study following 14,000 British children found that those with three siblings were, on average, one inch shorter than their peers, the youngest being the shortest.

As a mother goes through multiple pregnancies, she tends to put on weight, has worse blood sugar and generally stops giving a Bleep.



Then, after you're born, it turns out that not only do your parents love your older siblings more than you, they also spend more of their household's available resources on them. There is simply less time, money and attention available to a family's youngest child.
In big families, parents cannot provide proper nutrition to their youngest children, presumably because after years of responsible child rearing, they decide that owning a feral scavenger might be a fun change of pace.


Older Siblings are sdmarter than the younger

In a recent study analyzing over 240,000 subjects, researchers found that, on average, the eldest sibling scored three points higher on an IQ test than their younger kin. Three points may not seem like much, but it can be the difference between receiving a nice fat acceptance envelope from Yale, and having them send you a rejection letter nailed to a dead possum.
We've already explained how your older kin get the lion's share of your family's resources, but it turns out that they also get the best education during the crucial infant years.

Scientists think that this head-start leads to higher vocabulary and reasoning abilities, and because the younger children are increasingly faceless members of a growing litter, they never have a chance to develop the same brainpower. It's called the dilution hypothesis.
But there's more. As the family grows, older siblings begin to take on some of the responsibilities of their fed-up parents. This means often that they become makeshift tutors for their dumb-as-a-brick brothers and sisters. Ironically, because teaching something is the best way to learn it, this benefits them more than it does you.

By this logic, teachers are the most selfish people on the planet.
It may seem altruistic that they would act as your mentor, but what they're really doing is reinforcing the fact that you will never be better than them. Ever.



Your Older Siblings Live Longer

OK, it's not all bad news for the younger kids. Our big brothers and sisters may be smarter and taller than us, but studies show they're not as healthy.
It has been found that the risks of hay fever and eczema decrease when you've had three or more older siblings.

The kick in the pants is that, even after granting having anironclad immune system, the sickly older siblings will still outlive you.
Scientists at the University of Chicago have concluded that if the firstborn live longer.
Apparently, the secret of the firstborn's success lies in the mother's birthing age.
If the mother is below 25 when she propels her first spawn out into the world, that child is much more likely to eventually become a centenarian.
The study showed that, for women, the firstborn child is three times more likely to make it to 100 than the seventh sister and beyond. Firstborn males are twice as likely to reach 100 as male siblings born fourth through sixth.

The OP has a point. I am the first son of four children. The younger boys seem to have better luck and are doing better than i did at their present ages. I also have a maternal cousin like that, and his case is even worse than mine. I also have a paternal cousine- the first son of the entire extended family, and his own case is just..... hmmm. There seem to be more to it really. Well, in my case, it seems that the unfulfilled vow my mother made to God on my behalf while i was still in the womb is having an effect- word of prophecy said it and my mother confirmed it to me. But i never planned to be a reverend father, yet a vow is a vow, especially one made to God.
I believe a lot of forces come to play during pregnancy and birth of a first son. Some of the things our parents, especially our mothers do to bear a male child- and they do alot and to any extent, can definitely have effects. Also, remember that God also has interest in first sons, and that the devil never sleeps over the interests of God.

I don't even get what you said. I'm sure you're neither a son nor a first son. I am, and have relatives who are also. I am talking from real life experience, i don't accept unsubstantiated hypothesies. The best you can do is put forward a counter argument and let's see how reasonable it is. That is how mature minds debate/discuss issues. Not what you just did there. Thanks

Look at it this way: The younger male son is usually more successful than the first male so. It applies to male, not necessarily female.

Some people claimed to be first born sons and more successful than their younger brother. I can't say you're lying.
For instance, its normal for a man to be stronger than a woman. But does it mean that all men are stronger than all women?
