Lack of Initiative (from website)
It seems fairly common for firstborn children to lack initiative—unless they’re deliberately taught the skills necessary to take initiative early on. Parents tend to do just about everything for their firstborn, but by the second or third child, life is busier than ever and these children must, by default, do more things for themselves. The oldest child may have always come home from school expecting a snack to be ready while subsequent siblings will come home and get their own snack without a second thought.
最近都頗擔心兒子面試時的表現會不夠主動,看到這篇時發現,原來首名子女一般都會比較被動!因為之後(較年幼)的會因為父母變得更忙,而令他們比較主動去做事!
