Lesson 32: Siblings and Friends - Slide 13
Later Born Siblings
- Later born children:
- Try to find a valued family position that avoids duplicating the one already staked out by the first born
- Cultivate openness to experience and take greater risks
- Try to achieve through openness and diversity what the first born achieved through territoriality and conformity to parental expectations
- For each sibling position there are different family rules and roles: oldest child, middle child, youngest child
