Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Adler believed that first-borns also take an unusual interest in maintaining order and authority. They become good organizers, conscientious and scrupulous about detail, authoritarian and conservative in attitude.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: No one could expect first-borns to suffer this kind of drastic displacement without putting up a fight. They will try to recapture their former position of power and privilege. For a time, first-borns may become stubborn, ill behaved, and destructive and may refuse to eat or go to bed. When first-borns are punished for their troublesome behavior, they see that as more proof of their fall and may come to hate the second child, who is, after all, the cause of the problem.
