This is going to be a wonderful story!

Tiffi has had enough of this googling. Time for her to get out of the house and spend some time with her friends. She decides to head on over to the community.

Elsa rereads the information that she found for the National Middle Child Day. 

‘Each year on August 12th, National Middle Child Day honors that in-between child in the family. Larger families celebrate more than one middle child, too! 

Many believe birth order plays a pivotal role in the personalities of children. The Middle Child Syndrome describes the firstborn as the leader and the role-player. Meanwhile, the youngest one earns the title of the baby family. Therefore, the middle child’s role remains undefined.

Birth order may contribute to the Big Five personality traits, too: extroversion, neuroticism, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and openness to experience. One personality study also claims that middle children tend to be artistic and creative. 

No matter what the personality tests and therapists say, the day directs us to focus on the middle child. The day directs parents and siblings pull out all the stops. Make your middle-born family members feel special. 

NATIONAL MIDDLE CHILD DAY HISTORY - Elizabeth Walker created National Middle Children’s Day in the 1980s. The first celebrations took place on the second Saturday in August. However, along the way, it has become generally accepted to celebrate it on August 12th. In a newspaper article submitted by her grandson, Litton Walker, III, Walker stated that she wanted to create a National Day to honor those children “born in the middle of families” who she felt were “left out.” The name was later changed to National Middle Child Day.’ (Source) 

A few days later Elsa writes the story with all the articles that her and Tiffi gathered. She plans on creating a message in the Player’s Corner on August 12th asking the community members to read the story and then share their birth order. Hopefully they will share the traits from their birth order.  

Wait a minute! Elsa suddenly gets the idea of creating a poll of sorts. Maybe listing each birth order and then having the community members vote on their birth order. Then they can say if the traits match up to their birth order. 

And now this adventure story comes to an end.
