Middle Child Syndrome 

Middle Child Syndrome is when a child is born in between other child and feels negleted. The middle child is faced threw challenges such as feeling like nothing, not worth, no one caring, ect. An Older child gets lots of attention, and gets everything first. They are the "most dependable" ones through the eyes of family members/parents. The younger child also known as "the baby" of the family gets most attention. This child gets the most attention and can get away with anything. They usually have less discipline. The middle child is usually left without anything. People tend to not notice they're there.the end up feeling left out and forgotten.parents don't usually focus on there needs only their dire emergencies. Middle children seek love and happiness through friends and become social butterflies. But through Neglection by parents the child drifts away and becomes a loner with family.

(Over this and past year)

Middle: it's my birthday... Hello?

Mom: sorry honey but I just paid school fees can't really afford any birthday presents right now, if it helps I didn't get your (older) sister anything.

Pool-child Syndrome 

Found in teenagers and adults who grew up with a swimming pool. Symptoms include always insisting on activities taking place at their home and rarely participating in activites taking place at someone elses home. (ex. movie nights, dinners, etc.) These people may be, at times, condescending, persuasive, and defensive when they have to venture outside of their own home.

These teenagers and adults are used to not leaving their own comfort zone because as a kid they did not have too. Friends and other kids always went to their house to swim because they had a pool. Now these people are jerks.

Mandy never comes over for movie night because she has pool-child syndrome

Middle child syndrome 

When a middle child - typically of a family of three kids who are close in age - feels left out or neglected.

Because the bigger sibling is the first born and typically an over-achiever, they are the most important and get the most privileges. A younger sibling is the 'baby' of a family and gets away with more as well as being the most looked-after. Middle-child syndrome starts when the middle child is squeezed between these two and have trouble finding their 'niche' in the family.

Middle children will sometimes...
-misbehave to get attention
-go with the flow
-work as little as possible
-be less parent-dependent then their siblings
-become the 'loner' of the family, not participate in family events unless told to.
-play the peacemaker
-be more likely to go to a friend for advice than a parent
-be very creative

In short its where the older child gets all the awards, the younger gets all the love, and the middle gets nothing.

(A real-life example of what happened to my younger sis, who suffers from middle child syndrome)

Oldest: Hey I just turned 16!
Mom: Lets go pick you out a car!
Oldest: Yay!

-1 1/2 yrs later-

Middle: Hey I just turned 16!
Mom: Oh.. er.. well we're still paying for your sib's car, so you'll have to just borrow from her when you can..
Middle: >.>

-2 yrs later-

Youngest: Hey! I just turned 16!
Mom: Yay! And I just finished paying for the other car! Lets go get you a car!
Middle: Hey! I should be the next one to get a new car!
Youngest: but its MY birthday
middle: Thats stupid
youngest: MOMMY SHE JUST CALLED ME STUPID!!
mom: Be nice to your little sister on her birthday!! Come on, birthday-girl! Lets go get that car!
Youngest: WOO!

FCS or Fourth Child Syndrome 

When one's parents forget it is your birthday because you are the fourth child. They have celebrated the other three kids birthdays, and told you about it, but forget yours.

I am thinking of calling my parents tonight to remind them it is my birthday---but then they will feel bad they have forgotten it. That is the essence of "FCS or Fourth Child Syndrome".
