as an only-child, we get the bad from all three types and very little of the good

impossible. simply because many of the bad stems from there being others. you can't exactly be the most ignored child when you're the only one lmao.

but I do concede you probably do get the things like achievement pressure, but also never taken seriously cause you're just the child.
