Birth order

Eh...wasn't sure exactly where to post this. This looks good enough. You can move it if you want.

The other day my sister was asking about how birth order affects personality and stuff, saying she can't find any decent places where it's being discussed. Has anyone ever read anything on this or anything?

If I remember correctly, there is actually a post on this topic.

Firstborn ENTP

I'm the Last Born...

Alfred Adler has a theory on birth order, actually. I learned about it in my Personality Theory class.


Adlerian Overview of Birth Order Characteristics - Alfred Adler Institutes of San Francisco and Northwestern Washington

Another Firstborn ENTP. First Born of three, but then add another three.

Lastborn INTJ. (Only TJ in the family).

Hmm... firstborn INTJ here (of three).

I haven't read up on how birth order can affect temperature in the slightest. But I'm guessing it can have only a very general bearing upon how people turn out, since it's mainly their parents, their childhood and natural tendencies that ultimately contribute to a person's type.

Although it could be argued that birth order links directly with a person's "natural tendencies".

I have an older half-brother and 2 sisters. I guess that would make me second or first depending on which parent you look at. I haven't typed everyone in my family but I think I may be the only I in my immediate family (parents & siblings).
