The burden of being the favourite child
A new study suggests those who are considered the ‘favourite’ child in the family
pay a high price for their preferred status. Researchers from Purdue University in
Indiana found that feeling a heightened obligation to please parents and being
the target of sibling rivalry both take their toll: an increased risk of depression. The
0
weight
of expectation that comes with being the favoured child can feel
like conditional attention – the child believes it’s necessary to keep achieving
1
impossibly
high standards in order to avoid falling out of favour. Growing up
2
as the star of the family often leaves these children with a
lifelon
need to be the centre of attention and an expectation of unconditional love. In
addition, when their
3
disrespectful
siblings fail the family, they feel they have to
compensate their parents for that by being even more responsible and mature.
Psychologists recognise this behaviour as the Hero Child syndrome. The Hero
Child works hard to help the family

conscientious student and hard worker.

Choosing the right A levels
Choosing which A levels to take is a big decision and it needs to be given a lot of thought.
0
Although/While
the majority of study programmes have no specific subject requirements, an
academically rigorous selection will be a must for top universities.
If you
1
consider/contemplate
studying law at university, a good A level set might include History, English
Literature, a foreign language and Economics. History and English Literature are essay-based
subjects. They will help develop your ability to form arguments, as
2
well
as a broad
knowledge base. Taking a foreign language will keep the options of a year abroad or joint study
open, and Economics provides some financial background.
3
Another
option is the law A level, but there is some debate over its worth, so ensure the
universities you take into consideration don’t have it listed as a non-preferred subject.
This choice, however, is only intended as a guide and by no means
