I do believe that the younger siblings appear to be smarter in certain aspects since early ages, such as self-defense, grabbing attention and similar. This is because they are competeting right from their birth. Studies indicate them to also be more driven , since they have someone to look up to / compete with. Another thing for sure - PARENTS of second kid are SMARTER than that of first kid 😆.. They take very few pictures of the second one though, no matter how cute it may be 😭😭😭..
nice question dewey, thats the same concern i had, and i totally agree with you qt, on younger siblings being smarter and they strive to do best becoz they have someone to look upto, agree on all other aspects too 😆 i think people get very excited with the first kid, take all the pictures possible in the world while eating, sleeping, crying, baby tub, dont care if the baby is in the worst pose or crying the lungs out, by the time they have second kid, they lose all the energy and enthusiasm 😆 😆 😆 so they spare them from all those embarrassment 😆 😆 😆
