And you get a huge amount of attention, and that helps you develop in a different way.
Second child comes along, ah, okay, it's fine, you know.
less attention for the second child.
And that might be one reason.
So the older child is getting advantages in that way.
That's the first thing.
The second thing they talk about that's really interesting is very often the older child will teach the second child something.
It can be anything, but very often they show them how to play a game or whatever it might be.
And that gives the older child an advantage because there's a great line about teaching.
In fact, there was Richard Feynman, the physicist, who said, if you want to master something, teach it.
So the older child is learning to master things by teaching the younger child.
That gives them an advantage as well.
So again, these are other reasons why this would be.
And you can see now we're all fascinated by this, aren't we?
And then another one, the older one is in plenty more ambitious, maybe because the parents are pushing them.
And they're 7% more likely to go to university than the second child.
And that just shows you maybe there's a bit of a push on from the parents there.
So that's another factor, the parents being a bit more ambitious for the first child than the second one.
And then, of course, what this all means is vaccinate the child.
Because if you vaccinate the children, they're less likely to pick up these infections to give them a disadvantage.
