So speaking of entrepreneurial spirit, like that's the evidence I kind of see in my own life, which is obviously speculation, but I think it's interesting. I will say, please by no means take any of these observations as rules. Like, if you are a youngest child and you're not entrepreneurial, it doesn't mean that there's something wrong with you.

Or if you're listening to this and you're not a youngest child, like, and you want to start a business, like, by no means does this mean that you can't. Like, it's... It's, I think, ridiculous to look at these rules and think that they will apply to everyone. But I think it's just an interesting pattern to recognize in society amongst people who are just making organic choices.

This really links to the first big stereotype about youngest children, though. that they're rebellious, that they're more carefree. You know, the youngest child is sometimes seen as the problem child. Like they're the ones who need to like get bailed out of jail or whatever, because they seem to have had a more relaxed childhood environment.

And what also comes with this relaxed environment is being spoiled. So the second big stereotype for today is that youngest children are spoiled, they get more gifts, they get more financial support, they get more praise.

There is much less research on this compared to the previous stereotype, mainly because it's slightly hard to measure because of what we call the social desirability bias in psychological research. So if we ask parents, okay, which one of your kids gets more gifts? Which kid do you spend more money on, etc?

They obviously don't want to sound like they're playing favorites, so they're not going to be entirely honest. And if you ask the youngest child, they're probably not going to have noticed, right? There may be a situation where when you're asking them, like they're probably over the age of 18 in order to participate in this research, like,

They're probably the only child left at home if that's the case. So they don't have the comparison that the eldest and middle children would have. And that's the final person we might ask, eldest and middle children. They probably are also going to be biased. You know how competitive siblings can get.
