The only thing being a first born child does to you is stress and test you.




Every first born child knows and understands this so much. The one cool thing about being a first born is the fact you pick things first, make rules that are supposed to be kept and you’re like the voice of the children in some cases.

Except that, it’s a headache and wahala from one place to another.

Here are a few experiences every firstborn goes through:

Tthats why in most homes, the 1st child is usually calm and cold while the 2nd and others are troublesome and lively. Except for parents that are psychologically sensitive but most parents are just typically african in thier child training

Parents make d mistake of expecting almost perfection from a child who actually still need care and pampering all bcus he/shes d 1st born. Imagine a mum beating a 4yr old child telling her that hw can ur 2yr old broda be bedwetting and u d snr too is bedwetting. Pls at what age did d mother herself stop bedwetting..maybe age 10 yet shes demanding a perfect 4yr old firstborn
