Middle children are neglected and our futures often sacrificed. We are loud because no one hands it to us. We are strong because no one helped when we fell. We are happy by ourselves because we have been alone all our lives. Our roads are not easy, but they build us. We are a special kind, even more today.
Usually when the 2nd children are born the parents are still focusing the the first. And when theyre done with the first theres usually another kid born and they feel like the kid is their new clean slate. The 1st one is special cuz theyre the 1st kid. Theyre the 1st everything. The 3rd one is special cuz theyre the cutest. The 2nd kids are always just the 2nd kids. Nothing special about the 2nd kids.
I had my attention taken away from me and it still hurts. Oldest (as experienced older sibiling ) are blamed on and we are expected more, screamed at or the reason for your parents fighting, so I think most younger kids ARE TO BLAMEEEE(not to you I just ughhhhh)
@@ryobaaishi9968 at least u had an attention before.. be grateful.. don't blame others.. bcos u knew how it feels when someone blame u for something bad, don't let others go through the same.
The 3rd child what? I`m the third child out 4 and let me tell you its not easy especially when you have a bossy older sister who your mother adores and still treats like a baby and then to be born between two brothers, you literally are invisible except when you are needed but your tears you have to wipe on your own, your dreams are too insignificant and you`re just an overall burden
Being a middle child is tough. It's honestly depressing. I remember my parents bought a new phone for my little brother. I have been asking them for YEARS to buy me a new one since the one I'm currently using is broken. He had a fairly recent phone that was bought last year. I'm just so angry that they bought him a new one even tho his current phone is functioning. Whilst me who keeps on convincing them, wasn't given a new one. I always knew that I am the ignored child, but damn. Hurts to confirm it. To all the middle child or neglected ones, stay strong.
When the first girl is talking about the party, and her brother thinks it’s ok to say, “The part was super fun!” That hurt. That really hurt he used an experience she wanted to enjoy against her.
My mom forgot me at school once and I had to stay there till 10:00 PM and I had to walk home myself because she forgot about me and didn’t pick up the phone. I was only 9 years old then.
My mom picked up my older brother And then was heading off home She forgot she even HAD another child and since walking home wasn't an option I had to wait for her till 01:00 clock
When I was in L.K.G one day my dad forgot to pick me from school. I cried a lot and went to home walking alone and crying. I'm a middle child of two siblings elder is sister and a younger brother.
Same I was in elementary on the 3rd grade and the guards won't let me and another kid pass because we we're 7 at the time, so me and this other kid got forgotten for like 7 seven hours and the sun was already setting, so yeah, I can relate to ya bud
When I was 5 or kinder my dad forgot me to pick up in school because they babysit my young brother. I didn't wait him, because my classmates was laughing in me. And all my classmates have their own money so they can ride on the vehicles, since i'm a kid they didn't give me a money. So I need to walk from school to home. While i'm walking I saw a bunch of dogs from the old man house. And I was started crying and running, until I'm to close at highway and I was crying and crying until my father saw me. And he asked me why I'm crying. Lol those big dogs and a bunch of them.....ಡ ͜ ʖ ಡ
I remember that me and my older and younger sisters were walking home with my mother from school. I had to stop to tie my shoelace and I realised no one was going to wait for me. When I finished doing my shoelaces, I looked up to see my family way ahead of me to only think, "They look soo much more happier without me." I was 4 years olds when that happened and nowadays whenever I join my family everyone tells me that it was better without you. I'm scared because I feel like committing suicide is the only option for me.
don’t think about suicide 🥺 I’m the middle child, I’m weaker than my siblings and can’t walk as fast, resulting in getting left behind a lot. It still hurts just watching my mother walk ahead with my siblings as they happily engage in conversation. You’re still a person
The thing is we middle children are neglected I told my dad I need a new cycle because mine was old rusted and small so he went out with my little bro and big bro and he bought them food and all so when he reached home he didn't buy the cycle or buy food for me 😢
I'm a middle child of 4 (I'm the third) two boys and two girls, and to be honest it's sucks being the middle child, being compared to you're siblings, getting blamed for everything, whilst being forgotten or left alone at home
Middle child here, my older sister and younger sister both went to Disney Land & Disney World as a kid, me never went and my parents excuse was “It was for their birthday’s” (both born in January but they went around April while still celebrating their actual birthdays) mean while I only had cupcakes and ice cream at home once.
I'm a middle child and I have 2 sisters. There was the time, at my older sis engagement party, I was being a cleaner staff while my younger sister and my parents having a good time with other colleagues. Like, I already tried my best to put make-up on and dress nicely, but then my parent told me to help the staff to serve the food. This is the reason why I love to live far away from home.
I guess we middle children are mentally strongest and we are not dependent on anyone because of you know what happens with us ...we know how to survive all alone.....we are lone Wolfs....😎😎
Middle child of 4 (3 girls and a boy, I am the 3rd). I still remember when I asked my dad for a new cellphone a week before my graduation in high school. I also told him to buy me one so that I can use it when I enter college and he agreed to it. Then graduation came, I saw my brother holding a cellphone and it's obvious that it's new and then I only got a perfume and a a pair of sandals which I never asked. I didn't say a word. I never talked to my dad the whole time. I was really upset. After the ceremony, I didn't go home and went to one of my classmates' house to celebrate with them (I was invited of course). Now, I'm 25 and I still have that scar in my heart.
Im middle child out of 3. My parent never ask me what food i want to eat and even do not know what food i don't like. Just eat what they give me and in my heart i dont care because when i care i hurt they don't know what i dislike.
I'm a middle child of 3 girls, my big sister moved out as soon as she had an out, and I can't say I blame her. I said the other night at dinner that I was going to move out at 18 and then today I was getting lectured for it, I was told "That's an unrealistic goal, it's good to have goals but they should be realistic" Whenever my little sister has something the slightest bit wrong with her, All her chores fall onto me. So along with school and having a job, and all my own chores, I have to do all hers. The other night I was brushing my mom's hair for her and she lectured me about being gentle and I said "If I brush your hair like ho-" That was as far as I got before she started ranting at me about it, and how "I need to stop making her out to be a horrible mother".... I've never said anything about her that would lead someone to believe she's a bad mom. When my big sister still loved with us sometimes I'd see her and my younger sister playing around, so I would go to join in they'd leave....And if someone ever got hurt it was automatically my fault, no matter what it was. Oh, we were ona walk and someone tripped. I tripped them. Oh we were playing blind man's bluff on the trampoline and someone started got hurt cause they got hit or their foot was trampled. My fault. Sorry for ranting everybody. To all the other middle children out there, keep fighting the good fight. Our journeys make us stronger people and they grow us more than you will ever realize. One day, someone will be there for you! I hope you all a good day and a great life! Thank you for listening to my ranting
As a middle child I was blamed for everything. My dad would hit me in the head and head would bounce off the wall, furniture or the floor. When I became a teenager I started drinking, smoking and 'smoking up' . You have to walk a mile in someones shoes.
I remember when i was a kid.. our dismissal time in school is 2pm and they said that they will pick me up early until i waited from 2 to 7pm in the school. And i was like woah... u still remember me? Gosh.. i hate it.
I am a middle child myself. There's (in order of oldest to youngest) my older sister(older by two years), me, and my twin brother (I'm older by a minute). They have always been the favourites of my Dad while I am the forgotten one. One story I remember is when my Dad got them something that was £20, I had to pester my Dad again and again until I got my £20 from him. By now, I've just accepted that I will never be the favourite child out of the three of us. My brother and I constantly compete with our grades at school so we can impress our Mom, I'm better at art, maths and creative writing while he is better at English literature, PE and science.
Once when I was in middle school and my big brother who was in Highschool graduated my family deadass forgot me at my school until freaking 4 pm and the cloosing time was 2 pm, they even picked up my little brother whose school was in front of mine, the principal had to call my parents.
I'm a middle child and I've been using the same phone for 5 years. My mom have 3 phones and my dad have 2. My younger sister just got her new phone after just 2 years of using her phone and her phone's perfectly fine. I'm only 16 years old and there is no way they expect me to get a new phone by myself
my family and I were once out, they stopped the car because my sister and I had to take something from the shop, my mothers phone was with me my sister went back to the car after getting what she wanted to take i was still taking it, but I realized they left me. After 10 minutes my mom realized she didn't have her phone and thats when they realized they also have another kid, I was only 10 that time imagine knowing your worth and importance during your growing years.
This one time my entire family left me at home. Lol. They went to church and they didn’t realise I wasn’t there until like...three stops later. When my dad came back I was at the bus stop, I left the house and decided to take the bus on my own. I was 10. I shall never forget that day.
Sounds like something that happened to my sister. I'm the second of 7 and she was the fourth, with the brother in the middle being special needs. She was in the bathroom when we left for church and my parents realized it 20 minutes after we left. "Luckily" for me I was never left anywhere, they just forgot that I needed to be picked up from stuff. The way I see it, her and I are the middle kids with the 3rd being a pseudo youngest, then the 5th, 6th, and 7th being more and more like an actual youngest child.
One Christmas everyone in my family got 3+ presents and I got one present that I picked out myself. If I hadn’t helped my sister shop for everyone else and asked for the bag I wouldn’t of gotten anything. My birthday is often forgotten. Like my birthday is coming up and I’m trying to prepare myself emotionally, just like how I do every year.
I had to "share" my big Christmas present each year with my younger brother while growing up because we "had similar interests" and "were so close in age". Let's just skip over the fact it was never what I asked for and always what he asked for. He also got to use it the most because I happened to not have too much interest in it for some reason. If your birthday is still coming up, tell me the date and a way to contact you. I'll remember and send you a nice message.
Im the middle child lol. Lets say that I was out of place in the family, kind of forgotten left out tbh. Whenever I shared my hobbies, interests etc, I was ignored and not listened too. I was the one who got punished the most when my siblings did stuff. I was bascially someone that was dragged along to things and was left to my own devices, imagination etc. It wasn't until high school that I started to somewhat get attention, but it was all me who did it, no help from others. Middle children are often the most successful in the family. Warren Buffet, MLK, Abraham Lincoln, Bill Gates were all middle children, but they had all achieved success. We are powerful and strong, we are meant for greatness.
Mine is worst I have not lived with my mum for the past 15 years So now I live with her and my three siblings my elder brother is nice but he likes to take the lead as in “ I’m the first let me do it first “ my second sister she has our mum’s mother’s name so my mum loves her more than the word. Even when she does a mistake she will be like” you are Lucy because you have my mum’ s name... and look at meee😫 I’m always forgotten all my mum used to say you will leave this house for your siblings it hurts you don’t love your younger brothers brother you are the meanest you are wicked. My mum says all this words sometimes I feel like she is not my mum. The thing that she said to me on one Wednesday night I will never forget was” You should hold your brother nicely i know that he will succeed more than you” My heart was shattered my body was weak I kept hearing this words every day 😭😭. And I said to my self nothing will stop me from moving forward not even my mum I will be more successful more richer than my siblings I’m 15 my younger brother is 10 I know my God will help me🙌. I want to be a Doctor in the future In the next 10 years I will boldly say this out to the world. Dear parents especially the mother’s please treat all your children equally 🙏 Parents be like I love all my children I showed them the same love. It’s a lie🙄 the middle child suffers a lot and they become the most successful in the family. They have a lot of friends and loved by a lot of people that me😌. When ever strangers come to visit us Their attention will be on me 🥺 I know how to cook I do the most chores around the house and I’m clever I bring home the good results love by teachers and popular in school. Sometimes I don’t want to go home 🤧. I hate holidays because of this shit😫. But I love myself and that what matters . Yesterday was my sister birthday I prepared the food and during picture time I wasn’t even called they have snap and they called me to snap later so I refused they thought I don’t wanna take a pic . My own mum don’t even knows me well she was like” she don’t like pictures “. I do middle child do😓. After I refused my elder sister too refused and they force her so I went inside . I can’t even sleep people love me more. I pray and wish for long life to me and my family for them to see my out come. After my achievements I will remind my mum about what she said some years ago and I will try my best to change the world and fr then to love the middle child. Respect to us 👍 and keep moving middle hero 😁🦸♀️ Good night I will sleep from here
From the start I never really got to feel spoiled like the youngest me and my older sister is just a year apart but me and my youngest sister is 9 years apart and in those 9 years I never really felt loved. My dad works over seas so he isn't home my mom is the one that takes care of us. My older sister was born with a weak immunity and she was diagnosed with pneumonia at 4 or 5 and we live in the country side so the hospital is like 4 hours away from us so days and weeks I would always get left behind at my grandparents' house and she would always get my parents' love but after her few treatments she got better and then the youngest came in ✋😓 not just that the youngest also was born with a weak immunity so my life is in a limb. But as the only healthy and the middle child I have to understand that and become greatful for getting parents and a comfortable lifestyle cuz not all children get the same privilages I have. So Im thankful even tho I get to be the servant and the slave I get to live with a roof over my head and fed of with 3 meals a day
Middle child is often left out, all the attention goes to elder and younger ones. The worst part is when we complain about this, we get scolded by our parents, they say ohh its just in your head. I am not saying that our parents don't love us,it's just that we are not given enough importance as elder and younger ones.
Parents to middle child to older siblings: BE LIKE THEM!THEY ARE BLAH BLAH BLAH SO BE LIKE THEM Middle child to younger siblings: YOU'RE OLDER GIVE IT TO THEM AND BLAH BLAH BLAH
Most of my life I THOUGHT wearing old clothes from from your older siblings were normal! Parents not calling you when you are outside till 10 pm was normal! But then, when I started giving my younger sister the clothes i never wear anymore or they are not my size, i get ridiculed! And she get new clothes!!! My whole i had to live behind them. No one listens to me! They dead ass ignore my words! My sisters are really pretty but i am not! I tried to become good student but I could never surpass my older brother! So, i have nothing to get attention from my very own parents! They gave money to my siblings for stupid reasons (big money) but Couldn't afford my HIGHER EDUCATION! Like my older brother got married and my parents spent enormous amount of money now they are broke! I am of marriagable age buy they already said no wedding function for me cuz they have to save for the youngest!!! At this point i feel this is normal! Even if I die they wont feel bad! Maybe feel good that i am gone! Life sucks
Ok so I am the 2nd of 4 but the youngest is only 3. I’m technically still the middle child only by a little. One time my parents went to go get food. I am a very picky person and doesn’t liek much foods. So before they went out they asked my younger and older siblings what they wanted. Then when they got the food and I complained they said “you should’ve asked us” when they went to my siblings not the other way around 👁👄👁
I am middle child, One day my mother and my sister said our house will be in peace if you are not around" its really hurt me i am just a child when they said that, i just realize i am just a trash in my house i still hurt until now, they even not say sorry to me until now, yeah
My dad forgot me twice at school.(1) I go to school at 6:30am school end at 1:10pm and then I have tuition at 2:00pm end at 5:00pm. I waited till 10:00pm and then i decided to ask a school guard for his phone so that I can call my dad to pick me up (I was 8 y/o when that happened). (2) goes to school at 6:30am school end at 1:10pm. I didn't go home yet because i have hockey practice at 4:00pm so I waited for the hockey practice to start with my two friends (I told my dad to pick me up at 5:30pm). After hockey practice ended I waited for my dad obviously. (my P.E teacher also waited for my dad to come pick me up because I was the last person to go home). I waited till 7:00pm and then my dad finally arrived. (I was 10 y/o). Ye that's it, sorry for my bad grammar 😅
When I was younger, my dad (a middle child) told me (another middle child) that the middle child is the least loved 💀 I was like “Why the f* are you telling me this?”
The most recent ones was yesterday. We visited our cousins and they have cats, i tend to show my love for cats when i see them, i just get giddy and happy so I'm kind of hurt when i was so happy to see their kittens and played with them and one of my cousins asked "oh so you like cats? I never knew" she saw me grow as a kid even and always get in trouble when touching or carrying any stray cats since they're "dirty". I just realized now that i have this kind of middle child syndrome since all of the times i was ignored or forgotten by relatives i thought i was just too shy to talk to them but when my youngest sibling didn't even came to a family event, almost everyone just asked where she was :')) tho i never liked the attention so its kind of a win-win but i never liked being ignored
I’m the middle child, two girls one enby. (Me.) The youngest 11, oldest 23. I’m at the lovely age of 17. Big age gap between all of us leads to a lot of fights as you could imagine. Me and my older sister have a very close bond we often feel like it’s just us who has our backs. The youngest is in dance. She knows she’s the favorite, thus she can get away with anything. She is in dance, practically all of our money goes to her dance program. Me and my older sister didn’t really get to have a childhood so it might sound selfish that we’re upset over it. Last year on my 16th birthday I didn’t even get to celebrate it. A day that’s supposed to be about me, completely overshadowed by my sisters dance performance. It hurts feeling forgotten about, to all of the other middles out there, I’m sorry. You’re not alone, and you’re not ungrateful, you’re not an asshole, you’re not a waste.
Middle child story: So,it was the christmas morning,and,as you know im the middle child.In that morning when we opened the presents,my little sister got all the expensive toys and things and games.And, my oldest sister got got an REALLY expensive smart watch,and,what i got?Nothing.I asked my mom ,,and whats for me bc ,,Santa dont gived me anything and she said ,,well i think the toys are for you tooo.And i was like wtf like,im 12 and shes 5 like,there was the really expensiv barbie house, 3 L.O.Ls that are 90 each one.So yeah,i didnt get anything good last year so,i wish i will get something good like a phone this year Ps:Thank you for reading this!
On my 17th birthday my dad told me that he got 2 brand new bmw, one for me (my birthday present) and one for my older sister (cuz he said that he was afraid she would get jealous if he didnt get it for her) hers came first on my birthday and mine never came up till this day. Im 21 yo now lololol still hurts till this day
Only part that killed me inside and probably plenty of others in here is when your older sibling acts like they dont care about you around their friends, or starts treating you badly around them. My brother still does that shit, but not on the same level and he is 27 and im 21 now. Its like when you two are alone, he is more enthusiastic or cares more about what your ideas and plans are or whenever you make a joke they genuinely laught, but when around friends and family he acts like my words hold no weight in a topic, or that my jokes are not funny even tho everyone else laughs. I have some cousins that im really close with, like a brother and best friend connection type thing, but thry all hold the same amount of ‘’respect’’ in the family if that makes sense? They can all speak freely to each other and hold the same amount of attention as the other, And that is because they all got treated the same way, even when looking back at it i can still hear the same lines to every single one lol. It might just be that some parents are stressed with the first child, so for the second one they end up being more strict and the third etc they end up accumulating the parenting skills to actually know how to properly raise a child with the right amount of discipline and affection. Im not saying my parents are bad people, i love them to death but i just wish they gave me that little bit of freedom, and those little words of appreciation.
I used the beat the heck out of the bullies of my introverted older brother at school and young sister was safe as most of them knows me. And for this reason every single issue happened in the house I was picked upon.
i am the middle child older sister younger brother and my parents focus and care about them alot more but i am still the one who was forced to say when you get old you can come live with me
I’m the middle child in 3, My oldest sister gets whatever she wants my parents buy her anything she wants without even saying a word and my younger brother oh don’t even get me started He gets whatever he wants even without telling our parents like they already know what he wants.......meanwhile me.......l- have nothing 🥲😭 like my older cousin is the youngest in their family and we all like go on trips and shopping together... SHE GETS EVERYTHING SHE WANTS SHE-SHE HAS LIKE BAGS FULL OF STUFF SHE WANTS but I never get or no one even buys me anything if I’m lucky I’ll get a T-shirt....LIKE NO ONE CARES FOR ME EXCEPT MY OLDEST COUSIN HE IS THE BEST😭😭😭😭idk if it’s because of the age gap cuz he is turning 23 and I turned 13 this year....I love my older cousin❤️❤️❤️
I relate to this so much. Whenever my older brother had a pain in his neck, my mom rushed him to the ER, leaving me home with my younger siblings. I had plans that day, but had to drop them. A few months later, I pulled a tendon in my wrist, and my mom still refuses to take me to any medical professional. She says I’m fine, all the while, I’m still in pain with my wrist. 😅
Well I am not middle child I am oldest but I also feel like I am adopted and they always forget me and scold me even it’s not my fault so, I can actually feel it.😢😢
I fell and broke my front tooth when I was in 6th std. Been with that broken tooth till I graduated. Parents never ever tried to get the denture. I got the fake tooth myself when I got the job it cost me like 150 bucks. They didn't even considered that. Also once I fell and got cut doctor stitched it up. And told to get stitches cut after few days my father who was alcoholic never bothered still carrying those stitches in my leg. Broken tooth childhood destroyed any ounce of self esteem I had. I can't understand how they can ignore this.
I 55 but my past has changed me ..I am the middle child..I got my sister's used castdowm.she was the first born in the family so she was the princess. Then 7 years sister was born so she had to have everything ..all school picknic my sister's were sent but when I had one they was no money...over the years
Growing up as the middle child of 3 and then when I turn 10 mom pops out 3 more and I have to spend most of my time taking care of them like I was born to help babysit and clean after them
I am the middle child of four kids and growing up, The elder siblings acted like they were little and My younger brother. got to have a childhood, I had to Learn how to cook,Do laundry and chores at age five and I necessarily was neglected some of the time especially on my birthdays because most of the time I never got to go out on my birthday or even have friends but now I do but I still have responsiblility and I am going to college and no one in my family cared that The washing Machine broke my nose not only that but I have to push away how I feel to make my siblings happy
Okay I feel really bad for yall, Im the middle child and yes I do get treated like a middle child sometimes. But dang- what Im ready sounds like the worst life ever
I disappeared for 6 months and no one cared. I got car jacked, and ran over by own vehicle and no one cared. My older brother literally said.. “and?!”. Didn’t even pick my kids up from daycare while I was in the hospital. I’m the middle girl or 2 boys
I'm the middle child out of 3 when I turned 18 i got a job working at a restaurant my mom decided it was time for me to pay rent 300 a month my older sister was living at home she was 22 didn't pay rent 3 years later my younger brother got a job he didn't pay rent but I was when I moved out mom still wanted me to pay rent when I said no she went to my job stole my paycheck cashed it and took the money 758 dollar's

@@anthonybricker8634 I literally wish and pray for you. You don't deserve any of that stuff. I'm really happy she didn't get your money. Her fondness towards her other children are gonna bite her ass one day. I'm happy you got out of that mess
My favorite middle child story - My great-great aunt arranged a potty for my older sister (I was the middle of 3 at this point - 4th was born so far later, it was like he was an only child). Soo - Aunt Lou encouraged my sister to go on the potty but she refused. Not to be outdone, I said "I will" and I went to the potty and "went." I think it was my way of getting attention. This was more than 60 years ago, but it has become a family legend.
The oldest says like " You don't know being an oldest and the oldest has to care or share with youngers " The youngest says like " You don't knoe being a youngest , A youngest isn't allowed blh blh blh " the one who doesn't have siblings says like " Being the one is kinda bored, no one to share the secrets " Well lemme say being middle middle child is kinda hard, being ignored, being forgotton, being left, When the oldest son being Mom's fav and the youngest daughter being Dad's fav. what about middle child? I get both issues, Im always scolded even tho I enjoy small thing by myself, they scold me everytime for what I do, especially my mom. I remember that When my older brother hanged out with his friends, Mom gave him money and when my younger sister wanted something, Dad paid and when I hanged out with my friends, Mom said " Home at 4pm and if you were late, no more chance to go out again and she didn't give me any money, And my Dad didn't know that I would hang out with my friends.
I'm a middle child and the bad child my parents yell and in the olny one whose done with it and rebeling and that's what put me in that place wait till the other two are able to rebel and brave enough then they'll lose our love and it'll be there fault
I feel this is only the case if all children are around the same age. I was the baby up until I was 10. Them I became the middle child, but for 10 years I was the baby. Case scenarios matter.
I'm glad we can rant in the comments, I usually tell my mom and dad that my sisters are making in fun of me but they don't listen.. my little sister is a nice but annoying kid cause she always copies me and my original ideas and shows it to my parents and they give her a good job while I keep telling them it was my idea then they say ShEs jUsT a kId which isn't fair to me. Everytime I tell this to my older sister she just says, y0uR jUSt jEloUS. Why would I be jEloUS of someone who copies me. I'm not trying to make my family look bad they are really nice people, but I just wish I could have some attention. Also, I'm the one who has to stay chill even though I get really mad, once I let my anger out they say, "0h l00k aT aNGry bIRD!1!1" when I have been holding in my anger for years... I sometimes feel like a disappointment but I don't hate myself if that makes sense.... I am glad all of us feels the same so I feel less alone
I am a middle child of 3 both girls. The younger sister's birthday would fall first followed by the elder sisters and lastly mine. Younger one would makesure her birthday is celebrated with a cake and a party so does the elder sister. My birthday was never celebrated because it comes a month later and everyone would have already spent enough money 😢. Infact the only birthday I remember was when my aunt celebrated mine😊. My both sisters are post graduates and i am a drop out. I am 37 and still not married yet. I moved out when i was 23 for work and since then i have been living alone while my mom visits once or twice a year. My younger sister who is a year younger to me got my married last year. Nobody bothered to get me married 😂
I am a middle child also but I can’t say my experience cause I would be guilty hehe.. all I can say is don’t if you ever EVER need to vent I’m right here…:)
This is why Middle kids are neglected theory btw Because they think the Oldest Child-Is the most hard working and is the 1st born so they pay more attention to them bc they know there hard working and can handle how much chores they give them even if it's 1m per day (encanto vibes) Youngest-(obv)They think they are to young to do stuff so they baby them and as they get to used to baby them it continues and that's why they get more attention Middle-They don't think any thing of the middle child or know anything about the middle child because they are to busy on the oldest ones and youngest.
I not even middle child but I can kind relate feel neglected kind of I have older sister and I youngest in the family but due me having learning disabilities my parent alway bragging about my sister, cousins and family friend achievement while I was left out but I when try to impress my parent they would say ok and when they do something good they would brag about it like wtf.
My bed is held up with silver tape. I put it there because my bed fell apart every evening/morning and I didnt want to hamer it together all the time. When I finally was fixing it with the tape my mom told me not to use to mutch. And like to months later my younger and older siblings got new beds.I still sleep in the one I had scince I was 6 years old(a bunk bed cut in half). My madres is wavy...and uncomftable. I had a covering for it untill my sisters cat pissed on it. I slept for 2 years on that uncomfy thing untill my mon said oh did you need a new cowering? I only have hand me downs from both my younger and older sibling and mom. Nothing fits me and my only 2 pants that fit kinda are held up with strings because I have no belt.(my siblings have belts). My siblings are being taken out to buy clothing like all the time. And yet they still take my stuff back when they feel like it. When we moved in I was not allowed to choose my room like the others. I was given the attick with a broken heater.It gets a bit cold in winter. I have not had a single birthday party. I had not a single friend until I was 15. I was bullied allmost all of my life and lived isolated on a boat for some time. I am trans and I get none suport from my family. A little suport from my now friends but that is all. I was beat up by my class 1 time. Not because I am part of the lgbtq community but because I am german. I have had bottles thrown at me and legs put infront of my walking path in school. I automaticly start to cry when I talk about myself. I have allmost no memory of my childhood.(no good ones at least). My memory is horrible and it feels like I have nothing to say and the one thing my brain resorts to when I meet someone is to trauma dump.I was spanked/slaped as a kid. My mom is jokingly talking to me in a transphobic mannor. And I did a gen z move and poasted one convo from her on tik tok (dub english).(my family is vegan and I smuggle cheese home) I have allmost lost my hope for anny future where I might feel good but I am at the point where I am just spectatimg where my life is going to lead. I could go on for ever..maby about my abusive dad(he is dead..shot himself and drowned),Abusive neghbor,creepy neighbor,bullies,my mom, siblings, teachers...but I will rather go to to continu animating my short film. Sorry to who ever read until now. Have a great day,night or morning.
It’s crazy you say that because I am the middle child of 3 girls and two parents they had decided to get married the oldest and youngest was made a bridesmaid and maid of honor but they made me a hostess and claim that because I was in the hospital due to gallstone removal at the age of 13 that I missed the dress fitting even though the wedding was 4 months away
Middle children are neglected and our futures often sacrificed. We are loud because no one hands it to us. We are strong because no one helped when we fell. We are happy by ourselves because we have been alone all our lives. Our roads are not easy, but they build us. We are a special kind, even more today.

Too true

Usually when the 2nd children are born the parents are still focusing the the first. And when theyre done with the first theres usually another kid born and they feel like the kid is their new clean slate. The 1st one is special cuz theyre the 1st kid. Theyre the 1st everything. The 3rd one is special cuz theyre the cutest. The 2nd kids are always just the 2nd kids. Nothing special about the 2nd kids.
I had my attention taken away from me and it still hurts. Oldest (as experienced older sibiling ) are blamed on and we are expected more, screamed at or the reason for your parents fighting, so I think most younger kids ARE TO BLAMEEEE(not to you I just ughhhhh)
@@ryobaaishi9968 at least u had an attention before.. be grateful.. don't blame others.. bcos u knew how it feels when someone blame u for something bad, don't let others go through the same.
I agree
The 3rd child what? I`m the third child out 4 and let me tell you its not easy especially when you have a bossy older sister who your mother adores and still treats like a baby and then to be born between two brothers, you literally are invisible except when you are needed but your tears you have to wipe on your own, your dreams are too insignificant and you`re just an overall burden
It's simple. The oldest is the cool one and the youngest is the cute one. The middle is nothing.
Being a middle child is tough. It's honestly depressing. I remember my parents bought a new phone for my little brother. I have been asking them for YEARS to buy me a new one since the one I'm currently using is broken. He had a fairly recent phone that was bought last year. I'm just so angry that they bought him a new one even tho his current phone is functioning. Whilst me who keeps on convincing them, wasn't given a new one. I always knew that I am the ignored child, but damn. Hurts to confirm it.
To all the middle child or neglected ones, stay strong.
When the first girl is talking about the party, and her brother thinks it’s ok to say, “The part was super fun!” That hurt. That really hurt he used an experience she wanted to enjoy against her.
Its not that deep.
I agree. It does hurt bc they throw it back in our faces when they know that they’ve gotten what we weren’t allowed to do or have.
I literally don't even have to try to be a disappointment to my parents
Ye
You will always be wonderful in the eyes of God.
@@sherisetodd7004 bloody can't you just say "i feel you?"
Are you ok? 😐
My mom forgot me at school once and I had to stay there till 10:00 PM and I had to walk home myself because she forgot about me and didn’t pick up the phone. I was only 9 years old then.
My mom picked up my older brother
And then was heading off home
She forgot she even HAD another child and since walking home wasn't an option I had to wait for her till 01:00 clock
My family forgot me too on New Years Eve & realized only when they got home. I was 7.
When I was in L.K.G one day my dad forgot to pick me from school. I cried a lot and went to home walking alone and crying. I'm a middle child of two siblings elder is sister and a younger brother.
Same I was in elementary on the 3rd grade and the guards won't let me and another kid pass because we we're 7 at the time, so me and this other kid got forgotten for like 7 seven hours and the sun was already setting, so yeah, I can relate to ya bud
When I was 5 or kinder my dad forgot me to pick up in school because they babysit my young brother. I didn't wait him, because my classmates was laughing in me. And all my classmates have their own money so they can ride on the vehicles, since i'm a kid they didn't give me a money. So I need to walk from school to home. While i'm walking I saw a bunch of dogs from the old man house. And I was started crying and running, until I'm to close at highway and I was crying and crying until my father saw me. And he asked me why I'm crying. Lol those big dogs and a bunch of them.....ಡ ͜ ʖ ಡ
when she said if you haven't been fed: i felt that 😔✋
😂 but that made us stronger....
I remember that me and my older and younger sisters were walking home with my mother from school. I had to stop to tie my shoelace and I realised no one was going to wait for me. When I finished doing my shoelaces, I looked up to see my family way ahead of me to only think, "They look soo much more happier without me." I was 4 years olds when that happened and nowadays whenever I join my family everyone tells me that it was better without you.
I'm scared because I feel like committing suicide is the only option for me.
Awww baby, don't say
I feel you, I hope you're doing okay.
Just remember that being the middle child makes you stronger
don’t think about suicide 🥺 I’m the middle child, I’m weaker than my siblings and can’t walk as fast, resulting in getting left behind a lot. It still hurts just watching my mother walk ahead with my siblings as they happily engage in conversation. You’re still a person
Same thought! So depressing! Sometimes I wish I'm not gonna wake up.
Don't commit suicide one day you will get through it and live a happy life
I feel your pain. I've been through the same and had thoughts of suicide. Please don't give up on your life.
I'm the middle of 5 and only girl and always feel like my family forget about me
So I am not the middle child of four as google said since I'm the 3rd but I am the most ignored one
im the middle of 5 all girls including me and i feel the same way
Well dang them brothers no offence
The thing is we middle children are neglected I told my dad I need a new cycle because mine was old rusted and small so he went out with my little bro and big bro and he bought them food and all so when he reached home he didn't buy the cycle or buy food for me 😢
I'm a middle child of 4 (I'm the third) two boys and two girls, and to be honest it's sucks being the middle child, being compared to you're siblings, getting blamed for everything, whilst being forgotten or left alone at home
Im the second, but i get you fam 100%
Awe omg , I know how you feel! I always been left at home alone on purpose tbh :( I’m 22 now & refuse to have more than 2 kids lol
Middle child here, my older sister and younger sister both went to Disney Land & Disney World as a kid, me never went and my parents excuse was “It was for their birthday’s” (both born in January but they went around April while still celebrating their actual birthdays) mean while I only had cupcakes and ice cream at home once.
I bet that hurt
I'm a middle child and I have 2 sisters. There was the time, at my older sis engagement party, I was being a cleaner staff while my younger sister and my parents having a good time with other colleagues. Like, I already tried my best to put make-up on and dress nicely, but then my parent told me to help the staff to serve the food.
This is the reason why I love to live far away from home.
Don't worry because they might need you one day and you won't be there.
@@sherisetodd7004 Fucking preach bro
I definitely get it
I guess we middle children are mentally strongest and we are not dependent on anyone because of you know what happens with us ...we know how to survive all alone.....we are lone Wolfs....😎😎
Periott 👄💅
Indeed we are
Middle child of 4 (3 girls and a boy, I am the 3rd). I still remember when I asked my dad for a new cellphone a week before my graduation in high school. I also told him to buy me one so that I can use it when I enter college and he agreed to it. Then graduation came, I saw my brother holding a cellphone and it's obvious that it's new and then I only got a perfume and a a pair of sandals which I never asked. I didn't say a word. I never talked to my dad the whole time. I was really upset. After the ceremony, I didn't go home and went to one of my classmates' house to celebrate with them (I was invited of course). Now, I'm 25 and I still have that scar in my heart.
Im middle child out of 3. My parent never ask me what food i want to eat and even do not know what food i don't like. Just eat what they give me and in my heart i dont care because when i care i hurt they don't know what i dislike.
hey, we're the same. don't give up! sending virtual hug🤗
Middle child aka the forgotten kids
Still to this day.
I'm a middle child of 3 girls, my big sister moved out as soon as she had an out, and I can't say I blame her. I said the other night at dinner that I was going to move out at 18 and then today I was getting lectured for it, I was told "That's an unrealistic goal, it's good to have goals but they should be realistic" Whenever my little sister has something the slightest bit wrong with her, All her chores fall onto me. So along with school and having a job, and all my own chores, I have to do all hers. The other night I was brushing my mom's hair for her and she lectured me about being gentle and I said "If I brush your hair like ho-" That was as far as I got before she started ranting at me about it, and how "I need to stop making her out to be a horrible mother".... I've never said anything about her that would lead someone to believe she's a bad mom. When my big sister still loved with us sometimes I'd see her and my younger sister playing around, so I would go to join in they'd leave....And if someone ever got hurt it was automatically my fault, no matter what it was. Oh, we were ona walk and someone tripped. I tripped them. Oh we were playing blind man's bluff on the trampoline and someone started got hurt cause they got hit or their foot was trampled. My fault. Sorry for ranting everybody. To all the other middle children out there, keep fighting the good fight. Our journeys make us stronger people and they grow us more than you will ever realize. One day, someone will be there for you! I hope you all a good day and a great life! Thank you for listening to my ranting
This is what happening with me right now being middle child and dealing with Asian homeland Is difficult
As a middle child I was blamed for everything. My dad would hit me in the head and head would bounce off the wall, furniture or the floor. When I became a teenager I started drinking, smoking and 'smoking up' . You have to walk a mile in someones shoes.
I can relate to that I use drugs as a way out of Reality and they wonder why I do drugs
That's terrible, sorry you had to go through that
I feel really sorry for you but smoking, drinking and consuming drugs will leave you nowhere
Oh blame game is strong in case of middle child
I remember when i was a kid.. our dismissal time in school is 2pm and they said that they will pick me up early until i waited from 2 to 7pm in the school. And i was like woah... u still remember me? Gosh.. i hate it.
I am a middle child myself. There's (in order of oldest to youngest) my older sister(older by two years), me, and my twin brother (I'm older by a minute).
They have always been the favourites of my Dad while I am the forgotten one. One story I remember is when my Dad got them something that was £20, I had to pester my Dad again and again until I got my £20 from him. By now, I've just accepted that I will never be the favourite child out of the three of us. My brother and I constantly compete with our grades at school so we can impress our Mom, I'm better at art, maths and creative writing while he is better at English literature, PE and science.
Once when I was in middle school and my big brother who was in Highschool graduated my family deadass forgot me at my school until freaking 4 pm and the cloosing time was 2 pm, they even picked up my little brother whose school was in front of mine, the principal had to call my parents.
I'm a middle child and I've been using the same phone for 5 years. My mom have 3 phones and my dad have 2. My younger sister just got her new phone after just 2 years of using her phone and her phone's perfectly fine. I'm only 16 years old and there is no way they expect me to get a new phone by myself
Being the middle
*No new branded stuffs for you*
*Being forgotten especially school*
*Knows how to cook but ignored*
And the rest is you
As a middle child I get depressed some times
my family and I were once out, they stopped the car because my sister and I had to take something from the shop, my mothers phone was with me my sister went back to the car after getting what she wanted to take i was still taking it, but I realized they left me. After 10 minutes my mom realized she didn't have her phone and thats when they realized they also have another kid, I was only 10 that time imagine knowing your worth and importance during your growing years.
I guess I have middle child syndrome too :(
Im watching this as the middle child my father just switched off the light in the room that I'm in :)
At least your family didn't plan a whole vacation without you 🙃 and go on that vacation without you. TWICE.
my fam went to cancun for a nice week vacation and left me home bc i had a concussion from football playoffs. shit sucks lol
This one time my entire family left me at home. Lol. They went to church and they didn’t realise I wasn’t there until like...three stops later.
When my dad came back I was at the bus stop, I left the house and decided to take the bus on my own. I was 10. I shall never forget that day.
Sounds like something that happened to my sister. I'm the second of 7 and she was the fourth, with the brother in the middle being special needs. She was in the bathroom when we left for church and my parents realized it 20 minutes after we left. "Luckily" for me I was never left anywhere, they just forgot that I needed to be picked up from stuff.
The way I see it, her and I are the middle kids with the 3rd being a pseudo youngest, then the 5th, 6th, and 7th being more and more like an actual youngest child.
I’m a middle child now but it’s not that bad at the moment, probably because my younger brother is only a baby
It’s a terrible existence because your siblings treat you like sh¡t because they see your parents treating you like sh¡t.
"Both of your brothers denied it so it had to be you!"
One Christmas everyone in my family got 3+ presents and I got one present that I picked out myself. If I hadn’t helped my sister shop for everyone else and asked for the bag I wouldn’t of gotten anything.
My birthday is often forgotten. Like my birthday is coming up and I’m trying to prepare myself emotionally, just like how I do every year.
I had to "share" my big Christmas present each year with my younger brother while growing up because we "had similar interests" and "were so close in age". Let's just skip over the fact it was never what I asked for and always what he asked for. He also got to use it the most because I happened to not have too much interest in it for some reason.
If your birthday is still coming up, tell me the date and a way to contact you. I'll remember and send you a nice message.
U r strong ❤😢
Im the middle child lol. Lets say that I was out of place in the family, kind of forgotten left out tbh. Whenever I shared my hobbies, interests etc, I was ignored and not listened too. I was the one who got punished the most when my siblings did stuff.
I was bascially someone that was dragged along to things and was left to my own devices, imagination etc. It wasn't until high school that I started to somewhat get attention, but it was all me who did it, no help from others.
Middle children are often the most successful in the family.
Warren Buffet, MLK, Abraham Lincoln, Bill Gates were all middle children, but they had all achieved success.
We are powerful and strong, we are meant for greatness.
My childhood was more like my youngest brother's babysitter 😂
#middlechild
Mine is worst
I have not lived with my mum for the past 15 years
So now I live with her and my three siblings my elder brother is nice but he likes to take the lead as in “ I’m the first let me do it first “ my second sister she has our mum’s mother’s name so my mum loves her more than the word. Even when she does a mistake she will be like” you are Lucy because you have my mum’ s name... and look at meee😫 I’m always forgotten all my mum used to say you will leave this house for your siblings it hurts you don’t love your younger brothers brother you are the meanest you are wicked. My mum says all this words sometimes I feel like she is not my mum. The thing that she said to me on one
Wednesday night I will never forget was” You should hold your brother nicely i know that he will succeed more than you” My heart was shattered my body was weak I kept hearing this words every day 😭😭. And I said to my self nothing will stop me from moving forward not even my mum I will be more successful more richer than my siblings
I’m 15 my younger brother is 10
I know my God will help me🙌. I want to be a Doctor in the future
In the next 10 years I will boldly say this out to the world. Dear parents especially the mother’s please treat all your children equally 🙏
Parents be like I love all my children I showed them the same love. It’s a lie🙄 the middle child suffers a lot and they become the most successful in the family. They have a lot of friends and loved by a lot of people that me😌. When ever strangers come to visit us
Their attention will be on me 🥺 I know how to cook I do the most chores around the house and I’m clever I bring home the good results love by teachers and popular in school. Sometimes I don’t want to go home 🤧. I hate holidays because of this shit😫. But I love myself and that what matters . Yesterday was my sister birthday I prepared the food and during picture time I wasn’t even called they have snap and they called me to snap later so I refused they thought I don’t wanna take a pic . My own mum don’t even knows me well she was like” she don’t like pictures “. I do middle child do😓. After I refused my elder sister too refused and they force her so I went inside . I can’t even sleep people love me more. I pray and wish for long life to me and my family for them to see my out come. After my achievements I will remind my mum about what she said some years ago and I will try my best to change the world and fr then to love the middle child. Respect to us 👍 and keep moving middle hero 😁🦸♀️
Good night I will sleep from here
Middle child here and I feel the pain
From the start I never really got to feel spoiled like the youngest me and my older sister is just a year apart but me and my youngest sister is 9 years apart and in those 9 years I never really felt loved. My dad works over seas so he isn't home my mom is the one that takes care of us. My older sister was born with a weak immunity and she was diagnosed with pneumonia at 4 or 5 and we live in the country side so the hospital is like 4 hours away from us so days and weeks I would always get left behind at my grandparents' house and she would always get my parents' love but after her few treatments she got better and then the youngest came in ✋😓 not just that the youngest also was born with a weak immunity so my life is in a limb. But as the only healthy and the middle child I have to understand that and become greatful for getting parents and a comfortable lifestyle cuz not all children get the same privilages I have. So Im thankful even tho I get to be the servant and the slave I get to live with a roof over my head and fed of with 3 meals a day
My parents left me at church alone 2 times and don’t care about me at all we are a Christian family too so it’s extremely sad
Middle child is often left out, all the attention goes to elder and younger ones. The worst part is when we complain about this, we get scolded by our parents, they say ohh its just in your head. I am not saying that our parents don't love us,it's just that we are not given enough importance as elder and younger ones.
Parents to middle child to older siblings:
BE LIKE THEM!THEY ARE BLAH BLAH BLAH SO BE LIKE THEM
Middle child to younger siblings:
YOU'RE OLDER GIVE IT TO THEM AND BLAH BLAH BLAH
Most of my life I THOUGHT wearing old clothes from from your older siblings were normal! Parents not calling you when you are outside till 10 pm was normal! But then, when I started giving my younger sister the clothes i never wear anymore or they are not my size, i get ridiculed! And she get new clothes!!! My whole i had to live behind them. No one listens to me! They dead ass ignore my words! My sisters are really pretty but i am not! I tried to become good student but I could never surpass my older brother! So, i have nothing to get attention from my very own parents! They gave money to my siblings for stupid reasons (big money) but Couldn't afford my HIGHER EDUCATION! Like my older brother got married and my parents spent enormous amount of money now they are broke! I am of marriagable age buy they already said no wedding function for me cuz they have to save for the youngest!!! At this point i feel this is normal! Even if I die they wont feel bad! Maybe feel good that i am gone! Life sucks
✨I care about you, because I’m a middle too🤙
im the middle of twelve , im almost fifteen and my life will never be fair
Ok so I am the 2nd of 4 but the youngest is only 3. I’m technically still the middle child only by a little. One time my parents went to go get food. I am a very picky person and doesn’t liek much foods. So before they went out they asked my younger and older siblings what they wanted. Then when they got the food and I complained they said “you should’ve asked us” when they went to my siblings not the other way around 👁👄👁
What blows me away are the Lame Excuses.
Same
I am middle child, One day my mother and my sister said our house will be in peace if you are not around" its really hurt me i am just a child when they said that, i just realize i am just a trash in my house
i still hurt until now, they even not say sorry to me until now, yeah
Being a middle child is like being the nonexixtent child
My dad forgot me twice at school.(1) I go to school at 6:30am school end at 1:10pm and then I have tuition at 2:00pm end at 5:00pm. I waited till 10:00pm and then i decided to ask a school guard for his phone so that I can call my dad to pick me up (I was 8 y/o when that happened).
(2) goes to school at 6:30am school end at 1:10pm. I didn't go home yet because i have hockey practice at 4:00pm so I waited for the hockey practice to start with my two friends (I told my dad to pick me up at 5:30pm). After hockey practice ended I waited for my dad obviously. (my P.E teacher also waited for my dad to come pick me up because I was the last person to go home). I waited till 7:00pm and then my dad finally arrived. (I was 10 y/o).
Ye that's it, sorry for my bad grammar 😅
i just took 10 minutes typing a super long comment and everything got erased just the nature of neing a middle child
When I was younger, my dad (a middle child) told me (another middle child) that the middle child is the least loved 💀 I was like “Why the f* are you telling me this?”
So that in future you won't get mad at them
The most recent ones was yesterday. We visited our cousins and they have cats, i tend to show my love for cats when i see them, i just get giddy and happy so I'm kind of hurt when i was so happy to see their kittens and played with them and one of my cousins asked "oh so you like cats? I never knew" she saw me grow as a kid even and always get in trouble when touching or carrying any stray cats since they're "dirty". I just realized now that i have this kind of middle child syndrome since all of the times i was ignored or forgotten by relatives i thought i was just too shy to talk to them but when my youngest sibling didn't even came to a family event, almost everyone just asked where she was :')) tho i never liked the attention so its kind of a win-win but i never liked being ignored
As a middle child, I'm always in my own world, I was actually the first sibling who left home and no 1 really cared. 😔
I’m the middle child, two girls one enby. (Me.) The youngest 11, oldest 23. I’m at the lovely age of 17. Big age gap between all of us leads to a lot of fights as you could imagine. Me and my older sister have a very close bond we often feel like it’s just us who has our backs. The youngest is in dance. She knows she’s the favorite, thus she can get away with anything. She is in dance, practically all of our money goes to her dance program. Me and my older sister didn’t really get to have a childhood so it might sound selfish that we’re upset over it. Last year on my 16th birthday I didn’t even get to celebrate it. A day that’s supposed to be about me, completely overshadowed by my sisters dance performance. It hurts feeling forgotten about, to all of the other middles out there, I’m sorry. You’re not alone, and you’re not ungrateful, you’re not an asshole, you’re not a waste.
Middle child story:
So,it was the christmas morning,and,as you know im the middle child.In that morning when we opened the presents,my little sister got all the expensive toys and things and games.And, my oldest sister got got an REALLY expensive smart watch,and,what i got?Nothing.I asked my mom ,,and whats for me bc ,,Santa dont gived me anything and she said ,,well i think the toys are for you tooo.And i was like wtf like,im 12 and shes 5 like,there was the really expensiv barbie house, 3 L.O.Ls that are 90 each one.So yeah,i didnt get anything good last year so,i wish i will get something good like a phone this year
Ps:Thank you for reading this!
I literally had the same experience at 12. I got a camera and a pair skates. My younger sister had several dolls amongst other various toys.
On my 17th birthday my dad told me that he got 2 brand new bmw, one for me (my birthday present) and one for my older sister (cuz he said that he was afraid she would get jealous if he didnt get it for her) hers came first on my birthday and mine never came up till this day. Im 21 yo now lololol still hurts till this day
The car?!
I have twins and it feels like my twins were born middle children. They have to wait for each other constantly from birth.
Only part that killed me inside and probably plenty of others in here is when your older sibling acts like they dont care about you around their friends, or starts treating you badly around them. My brother still does that shit, but not on the same level and he is 27 and im 21 now. Its like when you two are alone, he is more enthusiastic or cares more about what your ideas and plans are or whenever you make a joke they genuinely laught, but when around friends and family he acts like my words hold no weight in a topic, or that my jokes are not funny even tho everyone else laughs. I have some cousins that im really close with, like a brother and best friend connection type thing, but thry all hold the same amount of ‘’respect’’ in the family if that makes sense? They can all speak freely to each other and hold the same amount of attention as the other, And that is because they all got treated the same way, even when looking back at it i can still hear the same lines to every single one lol. It might just be that some parents are stressed with the first child, so for the second one they end up being more strict and the third etc they end up accumulating the parenting skills to actually know how to properly raise a child with the right amount of discipline and affection. Im not saying my parents are bad people, i love them to death but i just wish they gave me that little bit of freedom, and those little words of appreciation.
I totally understand🤙I’m in my 60s, straight middle 2 older and 2 younger. I’m still crapped on.
I used the beat the heck out of the bullies of my introverted older brother at school and young sister was safe as most of them knows me. And for this reason every single issue happened in the house I was picked upon.
i am the middle child older sister younger brother and my parents focus and care about them alot more but i am still the one who was forced to say when you get old you can come live with me
I’m the middle child in 3, My oldest sister gets whatever she wants my parents buy her anything she wants without even saying a word and my younger brother oh don’t even get me started He gets whatever he wants even without telling our parents like they already know what he wants.......meanwhile me.......l- have nothing 🥲😭 like my older cousin is the youngest in their family and we all like go on trips and shopping together... SHE GETS EVERYTHING SHE WANTS SHE-SHE HAS LIKE BAGS FULL OF STUFF SHE WANTS but I never get or no one even buys me anything if I’m lucky I’ll get a T-shirt....LIKE NO ONE CARES FOR ME EXCEPT MY OLDEST COUSIN HE IS THE BEST😭😭😭😭idk if it’s because of the age gap cuz he is turning 23 and I turned 13 this year....I love my older cousin❤️❤️❤️
My friend's brother is the middle child and their family is always driving without him. He always end up chasing behind the car.
Thank every story gaoened to me just in a different matter
I relate to this so much. Whenever my older brother had a pain in his neck, my mom rushed him to the ER, leaving me home with my younger siblings. I had plans that day, but had to drop them. A few months later, I pulled a tendon in my wrist, and my mom still refuses to take me to any medical professional. She says I’m fine, all the while, I’m still in pain with my wrist. 😅
Well I am not middle child I am oldest but I also feel like I am adopted and they always forget me and scold me even it’s not my fault so, I can actually feel it.😢😢
I'm a middle Child and I have been fooled my whole life
even as an adult Middle Child family and siblings will try to take advantage of you. Just remember its okay to put your foot down and say no to them
Oldest:Has trouble disappointing parents
Youngest: same as oldest
Middle (at least for me): I don't even have to try!
I fell and broke my front tooth when I was in 6th std. Been with that broken tooth till I graduated. Parents never ever tried to get the denture.
I got the fake tooth myself when I got the job it cost me like 150 bucks. They didn't even considered that.
Also once I fell and got cut doctor stitched it up. And told to get stitches cut after few days my father who was alcoholic never bothered still carrying those stitches in my leg. Broken tooth childhood destroyed any ounce of self esteem I had. I can't understand how they can ignore this.
I (29m) am the middle child with an older sister (31f) and a younger brother (23m).
I swear these comments are talking about the 3 kids in a family... Well I happen to have 6 siblings.
I 55 but my past has changed me ..I am the middle child..I got my sister's used castdowm.she was the first born in the family so she was the princess. Then 7 years sister was born so she had to have everything ..all school picknic my sister's were sent but when I had one they was no money...over the years
Growing up as the middle child of 3 and then when I turn 10 mom pops out 3 more and I have to spend most of my time taking care of them like I was born to help babysit and clean after them
Am i the only one who is crying reading the comments bcoz i faced and still facing all of them
I am the middle child of four kids and growing up, The elder siblings acted like they were little and My younger brother. got to have a childhood, I had to Learn how to cook,Do laundry and chores at age five and I necessarily was neglected some of the time especially on my birthdays because most of the time I never got to go out on my birthday or even have friends but now I do but I still have responsiblility and I am going to college and no one in my family cared that The washing Machine broke my nose not only that but I have to push away how I feel to make my siblings happy

2:30 thank you 😆
Okay I feel really bad for yall, Im the middle child and yes I do get treated like a middle child sometimes. But dang- what Im ready sounds like the worst life ever
Poetic justice
I'm the oldest girl of two little brothers im closer with the 2change born and always fighting with the last born ...
I disappeared for 6 months and no one cared. I got car jacked, and ran over by own vehicle and no one cared. My older brother literally said.. “and?!”. Didn’t even pick my kids up from daycare while I was in the hospital. I’m the middle girl or 2 boys
That’s sad 😞
Oh my heavens! I understand too🫶
Oh my goodness 🫶I care
I'm the middle child out of 3 when I turned 18 i got a job working at a restaurant my mom decided it was time for me to pay rent 300 a month my older sister was living at home she was 22 didn't pay rent 3 years later my younger brother got a job he didn't pay rent but I was when I moved out mom still wanted me to pay rent when I said no she went to my job stole my paycheck cashed it and took the money 758 dollar's
You should sue her cause that's the worst
change your number and everything so she can't put anymore negativity in your life
All the best
@@harajukubarbie368 my mom didn't get any money the bank refused to cash the check I got my check back a day later when I told her I'm not her Atm Machine she got really mad and kicked out of the house I told her I already moved out last month I guess she forgot about that
@@anthonybricker8634 I literally wish and pray for you. You don't deserve any of that stuff. I'm really happy she didn't get your money. Her fondness towards her other children are gonna bite her ass one day. I'm happy you got out of that mess
I understand that! I was only 15 working and they had me pay.
My favorite middle child story - My great-great aunt arranged a potty for my older sister (I was the middle of 3 at this point - 4th was born so far later, it was like he was an only child). Soo - Aunt Lou encouraged my sister to go on the potty but she refused. Not to be outdone, I said "I will" and I went to the potty and "went." I think it was my way of getting attention. This was more than 60 years ago, but it has become a family legend.
The oldest says like " You don't know being an oldest and the oldest has to care or share with youngers "
The youngest says like " You don't knoe being a youngest , A youngest isn't allowed blh blh blh "
the one who doesn't have siblings says like " Being the one is kinda bored, no one to share the secrets "
Well lemme say being middle middle child is kinda hard, being ignored, being forgotton, being left,
When the oldest son being Mom's fav and the youngest daughter being Dad's fav. what about middle child?
I get both issues, Im always scolded even tho I enjoy small thing by myself, they scold me everytime for what I do, especially my mom.
I remember that When my older brother hanged out with his friends, Mom gave him money and when my younger sister wanted something, Dad paid and when I hanged out with my friends, Mom said " Home at 4pm and if you were late, no more chance to go out again and she didn't give me any money, And my Dad didn't know that I would hang out with my friends.
I'm a middle child and the bad child my parents yell and in the olny one whose done with it and rebeling and that's what put me in that place wait till the other two are able to rebel and brave enough then they'll lose our love and it'll be there fault
I have middle child syndrome but I'm not the middle child I'm 2nd eldest of 8 siblings.
I feel this is only the case if all children are around the same age. I was the baby up until I was 10. Them I became the middle child, but for 10 years I was the baby. Case scenarios matter.
I'm glad we can rant in the comments, I usually tell my mom and dad that my sisters are making in fun of me but they don't listen.. my little sister is a nice but annoying kid cause she always copies me and my original ideas and shows it to my parents and they give her a good job while I keep telling them it was my idea then they say ShEs jUsT a kId which isn't fair to me. Everytime I tell this to my older sister she just says, y0uR jUSt jEloUS. Why would I be jEloUS of someone who copies me. I'm not trying to make my family look bad they are really nice people, but I just wish I could have some attention. Also, I'm the one who has to stay chill even though I get really mad, once I let my anger out they say, "0h l00k aT aNGry bIRD!1!1" when I have been holding in my anger for years... I sometimes feel like a disappointment but I don't hate myself if that makes sense.... I am glad all of us feels the same so I feel less alone
I am a middle child of 3 both girls.
The younger sister's birthday would fall first followed by the elder sisters and lastly mine. Younger one would makesure her birthday is celebrated with a cake and a party so does the elder sister. My birthday was never celebrated because it comes a month later and everyone would have already spent enough money 😢. Infact the only birthday I remember was when my aunt celebrated mine😊.
My both sisters are post graduates and i am a drop out.
I am 37 and still not married yet. I moved out when i was 23 for work and since then i have been living alone while my mom visits once or twice a year. My younger sister who is a year younger to me got my married last year. Nobody bothered to get me married 😂
I am a middle child also but I can’t say my experience cause I would be guilty hehe.. all I can say is don’t if you ever EVER need to vent I’m right here…:)
This is why Middle kids are neglected theory btw
Because they think the
Oldest Child-Is the most hard working and is the 1st born so they pay more attention to them bc they know there hard working and can handle how much chores they give them even if it's 1m per day (encanto vibes)
Youngest-(obv)They think they are to young to do stuff so they baby them and as they get to used to baby them it continues and that's why they get more attention
Middle-They don't think any thing of the middle child or know anything about the middle child because they are to busy on the oldest ones and youngest.
I not even middle child but I can kind relate feel neglected kind of I have older sister and I youngest in the family but due me having learning disabilities my parent alway bragging about my sister, cousins and family friend achievement while I was left out but I when try to impress my parent they would say ok and when they do something good they would brag about it like wtf.
My bed is held up with silver tape. I put it there because my bed fell apart every evening/morning and I didnt want to hamer it together all the time. When I finally was fixing it with the tape my mom told me not to use to mutch. And like to months later my younger and older siblings got new beds.I still sleep in the one I had scince I was 6 years old(a bunk bed cut in half).
My madres is wavy...and uncomftable. I had a covering for it untill my sisters cat pissed on it. I slept for 2 years on that uncomfy thing untill my mon said oh did you need a new cowering?
I only have hand me downs from both my younger and older sibling and mom. Nothing fits me and my only 2 pants that fit kinda are held up with strings because I have no belt.(my siblings have belts).
My siblings are being taken out to buy clothing like all the time. And yet they still take my stuff back when they feel like it.
When we moved in I was not allowed to choose my room like the others. I was given the attick with a broken heater.It gets a bit cold in winter.
I have not had a single birthday party. I had not a single friend until I was 15. I was bullied allmost all of my life and lived isolated on a boat for some time.
I am trans and I get none suport from my family.
A little suport from my now friends but that is all.
I was beat up by my class 1 time.
Not because I am part of the lgbtq community but because I am german. I have had bottles thrown at me and legs put infront of my walking path in school.
I automaticly start to cry when I talk about myself. I have allmost no memory of my childhood.(no good ones at least).
My memory is horrible and it feels like I have nothing to say and the one thing my brain resorts to when I meet someone is to trauma dump.I was spanked/slaped as a kid. My mom is jokingly talking to me in a transphobic mannor. And I did a gen z move and poasted one convo from her on tik tok (dub english).(my family is vegan and I smuggle cheese home)
I have allmost lost my hope for anny future where I might feel good but I am at the point where I am just spectatimg where my life is going to lead. I could go on for ever..maby about my abusive dad(he is dead..shot himself and drowned),Abusive neghbor,creepy neighbor,bullies,my mom, siblings, teachers...but I will rather go to to continu animating my short film.
Sorry to who ever read until now. Have a great day,night or morning.
I understand🫶✨I care🤝
It’s crazy you say that because I am the middle child of 3 girls and two parents they had decided to get married the oldest and youngest was made a bridesmaid and maid of honor but they made me a hostess and claim that because I was in the hospital due to gallstone removal at the age of 13 that I missed the dress fitting even though the wedding was 4 months away
Shame on those parents.
i'm the middle child 5
Me too
