Never having anything of their own
The sharing goes beyond bedrooms for middle children. The age gap between children can play a big part in this. If parents had the two first children close together, and then the third one much later, it’s common that there will be many hand-me-downs passed from the first to the second, but the third gets a lot of their own things. At that point, the parents may have more resources to buy the baby of the family all new things. So the middle child gets the worst of it, never getting anything all brand new, never-used, that they can make their mark on.
