The youngest, the inexperienced child, the baby of the family. From the oldest and middle point of view the youngest child is usually secretly the favorite child but no one says anything about it. Siblings usually feels as if everything is handed to them.  They always seem to take the last of the food leaving everyone else to starve and constantly seem to pick fights or disagreements with the oldest and middle for no reason except to be annoying.

"A lot of people forget about us or confuse us with our siblings" -Some middle child

The oldest are just "built in babysitters" for the younger siblings and serve no real purpose to the family. The youngest can "never do anything wrong because they are the babies" of the family and always seem to antagonize the oldest or us just to get a raise out of us. "One of the only ways the youngest and oldest child are good is without them there would be no middle child."

The oldest is and middle are always picking on us, they make us get food and other stuff and then on top of that they blame stuff on us even when we saw them do it. 

The oldest always seems to have some way to pick on us even if we're doing nothing. 

The middle child "kinda just there" but they can either be your best ally or your worse during a fight with the dreaded oldest.

The middle child, the forgotten child, the child that's always in between the youngest and oldest battles. From what I know personally the middle child is pretty chill for the most part besides when they decide to start something over the littlest things. They're often kinda just there. They can have  one of the biggest attitude of all time. 

"Their either free to do what they want or are being watched 24/7"  -Unknown oldest sibling

The Oldest, the free babysitter, the trailblazer, the child that "parents gets all of the mistakes out." "Oldest sometimes gets the brunt end of the deal, because parents are stricter with the first one. By the last child, they are tired and ease up on the restrictions." But they always get to be the boss all the time. "They are always the one left in charge when a parent is not at home. The oldest is usually a moody jerk but " can pick on you when they want but lord forbid anybody else to touch you."

"The oldest is by far the best." We practically paved the way for our younger siblings. We have a right to be mean the younger siblings have it way easier with parents. Younger siblings are annoying they basically get anything they want. "The middle child is either really, really chill or super annoying and there's no in-between." As a fellow oldest child, I can agree having two younger siblings to watch or monitor that when your parents have to go out for 10 minutes that always turns into 2 hours.
