Author Topic: Don't you hate the "oldest child" philosophy?  (Read 2915 times)

I hate this piece of stuff. The oldest child philosophy is that:

The oldest child is always guilty
The oldest child deserves harder punishments
The oldest child is only scolded when they do bad, not rewarded for good.

Most parents subconsciously follow this. It is so annoying to be the oldest of all of my siblings. Also, there is a youngest child philosophy that is exactly opposite this.

Yeah im the oldest child in my family.(Mom's side)

You must always be guilty of something, even if you were not there.

I'm the youngest child in my family, actually.

You must always be guilty of something, even if you were not there.
Pretty much.

my parents run the youngest child philosophy on my little brother and it pisses me the forget off.

My bigger bro is always yelled at by my dad, and when he leaves for the navy I'm the one who's going to be yelled at.

I'm the only child, and I hate it when people say things like:
1. Only childs are brats.
2. Only childs are expected to be the best at everything.
3. Only childs are spoild by their parents.

Bullcrap

Philosophys are also just crap. Seriously, get your own opinon and lifestyle, not someone elses.

I have a friend who is leaving for the military.He is the youngest child but gets yelled at the most.

I'm an only child so it never happened to me, but that is a really pathetic philosophy indeed.

I am the youngest and all the stuff gets dumped on me :c

This doesn't happen at my house. It doesn't matter that my sister's oldest, it's just "If they're bad or disobedient, punish them, regardless of age."

For me it's the youngest does. Which is me. Maybe it's just because i'm too stubborn ^^

This is why I love being a middle child.

i'm the youngest and my older brother always gets blamed. I put a hole through his door with a broom a few days ago and she yelled at him because he had his stoner friends over. :cookieMonster:
