As the eldest, I sometimes felt that my siblings took advantage of privileges denied to them. They may have been right, but none of them took on the same level of commitment toward our parents.
That's all in the past now, and it doesn't matter anymore. As for the grandmothers, the one I knew reserved her favors for the grandchildren of the eldest daughter, my favorite aunt, and disproportionately protected the daughters of the youngest, who, despite being my godmother, never showed me any special affection.
It seems that being the middle child has a certain advantage. You might not get as much attention as the oldest or the youngest, but that grants you more freedom.

Como primogénito, siento que algunas veces mis hermanos sintieron que disfrutaba de privilegios negados a ellos, es posible que tuvieran razón, pero ninguno asumió responsabilidades hacia nuestros padres en el mismo grado de compromiso.
Todo quedo atrás hace mucho y ya no importa. En cuanto a las abuelas, la que conocí guardaba sus favores para los nietos de la hija mayor, mi tía favorita y protegía desproporcionadamente a las hijas de la menor, que a pesar de ser mi madrina nunca me demostró ningún afecto especial.
Parece que ser el hijo del medio tiene cierta ventaja, puede que no le presten tanta atención como al mayor o al benjamín, pero eso les otorga mayor libertad.
