You're arguably the most mature of your family
You know what to do in a crisis due to the amount of learning experiences you've learned from your siblings. You learned from their mistakes and are quite the responsible one.
Most of your friends aren't the youngest sibling
You find yourself gravitating towards those friends who aren't the youngest siblings and maybe it's because they are too similar to you.
You love Christmas
Growing up you were aways surrounded and protected by your older siblings. You love being with your family and friends but have learned to love being by yourself and recharging.
You're full of wisdom
Your friends often come to your for advice and it's all due to the fact that you learned it all from your siblings. Most everything you know, one of your older siblings taught you.
You are strong
You grew up being subtly picked on by your siblings so you have thick skin. You also did the same to them, so you know your limits with words and violence.
You know how to have a good time
You most likely are the outgoing one of your family and love to have some fun. You grew up being silly with your family, and that silly fun side has stayed with you.
You are the favorite child
Okay this is probably not true, but growing up, all your siblings looked at you like a baby, so they feel the need to protect you. Even if they know it or not, they have a special love for their youngest sibling and your parents see you the same way!
