and five minutes after the birth. If there are problems with the baby
an additional score is given at 10 minutes. A score of 7-10 is considered
normal, while 4-7 might require some resuscitative measures, and a
baby with apgars of 3 and below requires immediate resuscitation.

Birth
Order Research - I think a good approach to birth order is to
consider how sibling relationships are depicted in myths and fairytales
or in the Bible (especially in the Old Testament). There are many
stereotypes concerning the different positions in a family (e.g. last-born
as "nestling"). Recall your own experiences. Perhaps you
come upon an autobiographic account of a famous first, last, middle
or only child. 4/5 |

Compulsive Lying - Children lie. That is a fact most parents would
attest to. They don't seem to need instruction on lying; they don't
need encouragement to do so. They just do. Children exaggerate, twist
the truth, hide the facts, manufacture stories, and deny the obvious.

The
Dilemma of the Only Child - Alissa D. Eischens Northwestern University.
This paper examines the phenomenon of birth order as it particularly
relates to only children. Only children are unique in birth order
in that they are the first- and last-born children in their families.
Various theories of prominent psychologists such as Adler, Freud,
Skinner, and Eysenck will be examined in their application to the
importance of birth order in personality development. A theory concerning
only children will then be presented, dealing chiefly with their difficulty
with the labels of introversion and extraversion. Personal observations
as well as a proposal for testing the theory will be given. 3/5 |
