"The Middle": a response to Justin's essay

I feel I can relate to Justin's essay. I am also the middle child and know the title of "the middle child" comes with many assumptions of how we should be: clouded by both our older and younger siblings, and washed away in the crowd. We then are the rebels who are in search of attention. But I agree that this known definition of a middle child does not apply to me. I chose this song, half because it is called "The Middle" and half because I felt the lyrics could apply to Justin's essay. In the first section, it says, "It's only in your head you feel left out, or looked down on." Middle child syndrome is something that is in your head and you can either stick to the definition of a middle child or break free of it. I think it would be cool to possibly relate all of your topics together and add more visual language!
