Being First

Melissa is the oldest of four children, but what does that mean? Do first born children have it better or worse than their siblings?... Melissa, a student at Newcastle-under-Lyme School tells us here...

"I realised that I needed someone to help me torment my brothers."

It's not easy being first, according to Melissa, the oldest of four children. At least her sister is on hand to help her keep her brothers in check.

But what lessons has she learned by being the first born child in her family?
