The middle child gets a hard rap so in honour of Middle Child Day, we asked some middlies - of all ages - what they wish their parents had known about the plight of the plucky middle kid. Here's what they told us.
Middle kids have a lot to deal with. No wonder it's rumoured that even Princess Charlotte suffers 'middle child' syndrome - they're squished between the cute baby of the family (who gets away with murder) and the adored eldest child (whose achievements steal the limelight), plus they're often the family scapegoat when it comes to sibling squabbles.
