Birth order doesn’t predict your personality.
Your rank in the birth lineup can shape your life. It just doesn’t define the unique combination of thoughts, feelings and behaviors that make you who you are. Michael J. Coren shares how scientists believe birth order, and everything else, affects how we act and what really matters when it comes to our personality.
