Middle children are either rejected by their parents or completely forgotten. Many parents donβt remember the middle childβs name and struggle remembering their birthday. The middle child is often a goon of the older child seeking approval from somebody. For some reason they always have terrible injuries that arenβt their fault, then the parents get mad because of the hospital bill
OH MY GOD WHO ARE YOU?! Oh wait. Youβre the middle child.
Disrespected, underrated, best of the family, never gets to go to their friends house, the parent never focuses on them, and it's sad.
The Middle Child never gets attention.

The middle child often feels isolated and detached from their family. They are eager to leave the town they've grown up in. Middle children often long for true love and a family of their own so that they can try to "make up" for the way they were treated by treating all of their kids equal.
Middle child: So Mom said she isn't going to take me to that campout after all... *sigh*
Oldest child: Oh, sorry.
Middle Child: It's alright, what do I expect? I am the Middle Child, after all.

A middle child is a sibling you doesn't get love, attention, or much of anything else. Their parents will congratulate the oldest and youngest siblings for small things-such as an A in a class or a 100 on a test but never seem to give praise to the middle child. The middle child is often left cleaning up after their sibling and it's usually expected of them. They will sometimes portray anger or violence to try and make their parents relize but always end up in trouble again.
mom-who left this mess?!
oldest sibling-me, sorry I forgot to clean it up.
mom-it's okay I'll have the middle child do it.
