Speaking to NRP,co-author Joseph Doyle said,“The first-born has role models,who are adults. And the second,later-born children have role models who are slightly unreasonable 2-year-olds,you know,their older siblings. The difference of parental investments and the sibling influences probably contribute to these differences we see in the labor market and what we find in behaviors against regulations,even against laws.
