Olivia on a Rope Swing

This series of photos from camp led me to question, “Are second-born children braver?” Let me know your thoughts over at my post last week.

Here is a fun thumbnail linky…

But if you prefer the old style, you can use this linky:

Thanks to Uisce for creating Wordless Wednesday.

    All my kids are brave – except the 1st born. He is the biggest chicken EVER. He’s 9 and just barely decided to try and learn how to ride a bike. But he’ll only practice in the grass. lol

    looks like she is loving it. it makes me want to swing on a rope swing :).

    our 2nd child seems more fearless, but i don’t know if it’s because he’s a boy or if it’s because he’s the 2nd child (our 1st is a girl) or if it’s a little bit of both. although, our 1st child seemed fearless when she was younger, but now that she’s a bit older she seems more cautious about certain things.

    If you think your 2nd born is braver imagine my 4th – it’s a wonder my heart is still beating after all she has put it through – wonderful shot of your little one – so full of joy!

    Beautiful pic! In our case, my second born is not braver. Our first born is a boy…a dare devil whom I caught propping his bike ramp on top of cinderblocks last night in an effort to catch bigger air! My second is a daughter, more of a girly girl. She’s pretty good at holding her own, but definitely more cautious than #1.

    Have a great Wed 🙂

    I think if the kids are close in age, the second one can tend to be braver. If they are farther apart, the younger one can depend a little more on the older ones and then, develope slower.

    I have 2 older girls and I’d have to say my 2nd one is intentionally braver. Don’t make me explain! LOL

    Of my 2 younger boys, I’d have to say the 2nd one is braver. My 1st wants to be braver so he does try. =)

    Love the rope swing photo!
