I'm the 4th of 5 and arguably one of the more successful. My first child is a total disaster. He is 13 and I just spent the last hour getting him off to school, his face streaming with tears, throwing tantrums like a 2 year old. He's gotten better this year, but for the last several years he has been a terrible student. I guess there's an exception to every rule of thumb.
