Third borns represent a large and growing family. At this point the birth order is truly stacking up.
Origional problem - being shamed by second born
Solution - be emotinonally strong
Bad feeling - fear
Felt loss - protection
Justice - no justice exists; help victims
Thinking - compare thing to generate ideas
What causes anger - being putdown
Humor - embarrassing others
Relating - Helps others to please them
Relational problem - must help others
Procrastination - puts off tasks for more
fun activities
Achilles heel - inabilitiy to cooperate
Boundaries - cannot set boundaries to keep
others out
Strengths - compassion, practicality,
imagination
Many third borns I know display fear reactions not like 5-6-7 fear types proper, but kind of like an expression of apprehension.
Developed thirds are generous, wise individuals.
