INTRODUCTION

1.- Adult Sibling Rivalry, began with the story of Cain and Abel, the competicin between siblings for
parental love and attention. The sibling bond is complicated, and influenced by many factors: parental
treatment, genetics, gender, life events, ethnic and generational patterns, people and experiences outside
the family all contribute to the success or failure of a particular sibling connection..
Brothers and sisters spend more time together during childhood than with their parents, age when are close
and an intense relationships, they change dramatically over the years. The transition to school diminishes
the relationship between older and younger siblings and life events in adulthood--leaving home, getting
married, too.
2.-Birth order is as important as gender, and genetics. No two children have the same set of parents, even
though they live in the same family. The parents, remember their first child well, is the only child that will
ever have his or her parents completely; all other children have to share.
The Firstborn or eldest child have had are over-responsible, reliable, well-behaved, careful and
smaller versions of their own parents. The problem is that when baby number two arrives. They will
experience a sense of loss, by losing your seat on the familial throne. All of the attention that was
exclusively yours must now be shared.
The middle child is often dominated by the firstborn, who is older, wiser and more competent. By
the time the baby arrives, parents are usually worn down, By now, you know your baby is not going break,
and therefore, you can be more flexible in both attention and discipline. As a result, your baby learns early
on to seduce and entertain. The middle child are likely to pick an intimate circle of friends to represent your
extended family. They receive the least amount of attention from family and as a result, this family of your
choice is your compensation.
The Youngest Child: have more freedom than the other siblings and, in a sense, are more
independent. Because their parents were more laid back, they expect freedom to follow your own path in a
creative style. They've had less responsibility, and therefore don't attract responsible experiences.
The Only Child: grow up surrounded by adults, and therefore are more verbal and often more
mature. Having spent so much time alone, they are resourceful, creative and confident in your
independence. If you're an only child, you actually have a lot in common with those who are first born, as
well as those who are the youngest in their families.
3.- Personality can be classified in two types: Introvert and Extrovert:
Extrovert Personality: Individuals are social, practical, informal, good conversationalists,
active and lively. They are habitually outgoing, prefer outdoor activities, tend to be essentially social participating in various social and personal activities. They are generally good leaders of big and small
groups; apparently live in the present.
Introvert Personality: Individuals who prefer to remain isolated or in the company of very few
people, they have keen interest in their own psyche. They are formal, idealistic, less social, talk less about
the future. They involve themselves minimally in social activities or in those activities which demand their
active, direct interaction with many people. They prefer indoor activities, to outdoor ones.
