  When a second child arrives, parents are not so excited.The second child has to compete with the first–born for the parents' attention and love.These children often choose different sports and hobbies to do well at school and work, but have to be creative to get their family's attention.They are often friendly and cool.Many famous talk-show hosts were born last.
