What Happens When Last-Borns Marry One Another (Video)
By Benjamin Abioye
When last-borns marry one another, their relationship often carries more drama than couples who aren’t the youngest in their families. This stems from how they were raised as the babies of the family, a dynamic that shapes their personalities and flows into their adult lives and marriage.
It’s well known that last-borns tend to receive more care and attention than their older siblings. This extra affection creates a sense of belonging and freedom, making them feel invincible due to the special treatment from their parents.
In Nigeria, it’s not uncommon for parents to call their youngest child “my child,” while the older children are simply addressed by their given names. This preferential treatment fosters a mindset where last-borns often feel like perpetual children, expecting to enjoy similar privileges wherever they are, regardless of age.
When last-borns marry, these traits persist even in adulthood. Last-born couples are naturally playful when together, often indulging in the same luxuries they share with their children. Their preferences, such as food choices, sometimes align more with what their kids enjoy, and they may partake in behaviors that seem amusing, all while trying not to get caught by their kids.
This doesn’t mean they lack wisdom or maturity. It’s simply that, deep down, they continue to embrace their roles as last-borns. Surprisingly, this dynamic strengthens their bond, as they easily understand each other and share a unique connection.
