I firmly believe that birth order in your family, as well as the composition of your family, greatly affect the person you become. My family consists of six people. My brother, Jonathan, the oldest of the children, is currently twenty five years old, and our relationship is amazing, especially considering the ten year age gap. Jessica is one of the middle children, at twenty one years old, and since she lives at college, I cherish the time she is home more than I did before she left. Patrick, who is seventeen, and I share mutual friends, causing him to be protective and sometimes, hostile. Each child in my family enjoyed several years of being the “baby” of the family. However, all of my siblings outgrew that stage when a new child was born
