...according to Dr. Leman, both an eldest and an only-child tend to assume the traits of "mini-adults"...so, basically (according to the good Dr.) they're the "same."

So far, this poll seems to show that there is no statistically significant correlation between ecomodding/hypermiling
and birth order.

One huge correlation that no one's mentioned is the male/female. Are there any females on this site?

Oooohhh , I hate to indulge here in pedantic semantics but that is not possible.

An only child is simply that ; an only child.

For a child (any child) to be youngest or oldest there is an essential requirement for siblings to exist.

Same for larger or smaller or any other comparative status.

Got 1 sister 2 yrs younger than me. But she did a lot of things before me, like move out, get married, have kids. Not much for eco-folks in my family, except for my grandpa who died in 05.

It's still open but once you vote on it it won't let you enter again. I don't know how to go in and change it,
