A middle sibling is a child who has at least one older and one younger sibling. This position in the family often leads to unique personality traits and experiences. Middle siblings may develop strong negotiation skills and adaptability, as they often find themselves mediating between their older and younger siblings. In many families, middle siblings can feel overlooked or less favored compared to their siblings. However, they often form close bonds with both their older and younger siblings, creating a supportive network. This dynamic can influence their social skills and relationships outside the family, impacting their interactions with peers and authority figures.
