Fathers of Reddit who’s your favorite child and why isn’t it the middle one?

9 comments

1. Not every dad has 3 children

2. Middle child here… I am my dad’s favorite but he was also a middle child so I think he made it a point to try and help me not feel MCS quite so bad.

3. Middle child here, the reason why is because I was born the wrong gender. He wanted all daughters.

4. My neighbors kid is pretty cool.

5. My favorite child is the one that is currently listening to what I’m asking them to do. Without the whining and complaining.

6. Ouch.. middle child and I feel like I’m the least favorite

7. My favorite always isn’t the one who wasn’t misbehaving.

   I have 2, but if I had more the answer would be the same. If you’re the middle child and feel deprived, that doesn’t have anything to do with birth order..why would it?

8. LOL. I think I love them all the same (I certainly try) but, actually, the one who is easiest to hang out with is the middle one.

   I’m sorry if for any reason you’ve felt less loved than your siblings. You deserve your dad’s full affection, just like they do.

9. I have five. I love them all with my whole heart. #4 is in the Daddy’s sweet little girl phase. #3, the middle child, is the most fun and easy-going one. #5 is a baby. #1 & #2 are miracle twins but very frustrating and difficult. Soi middle child is doing all right.
