Study Says Eldest Children Have Higher I.Q.s

I just thought you all might be happy to know the results of this long-anticipated study. It's good news for me, Rachel, and Ella.

Published: June 21, 2007
The difference in I.Q. between siblings was a result of family dynamics, not biological factors.

Very interesting! I heard about this, just today, from another Grandma I met, at the park across from Steve and Rachel's. Her 6 yr. old grandaughter certainly was evidencing a high I.Q.

Yes, but high IQ's don't mean automatic success or happiness. It's the middle children who make the world go round. The firstborn dreamers and lastborn pampered children give us quite a load to carry along with us as we get things done. We are smart enough to do our jobs, but dumb enough to also enjoy it.

It's a good thing that the study did not include our family. It may have severely undermined their findings.

if by eldest you mean second youngest, then yes, I agree with this study
