Ezynell 2,037 December 31, 2011 Share December 31, 2011 Hmm... December 15th Is 20 Lives at home No job No school Meh grades But on the flip side: Loves life Amazing amounts of self esteem, bordering on arrogance Is really smart, just unorganized (and has ADD), which explains low grades Loves learning, especially math and science, especially astrophysics and theoretical physics Got a 30 on the ACT a few months ago So that study can go suck it. I'd rather live this way then have a good job and a crappy self esteem 1 GAK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Rarity Pony 4,892 December 31, 2011 Share December 31, 2011 I understand the logic behind that but I don't know how true it actually is. I definitely don't think of myself as "less developed" than anyone else in my grade just because I am born in December. LRP's opinions are subject to change without notice.

Dewdlz 938 February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 Interesting. I would think people learn at their own pace and possibly how they're raised or what they experience can cause them to learn differently. Regardless of being at school, things can be learned outside those institutions and I remember reading that we learn most things faster at a young age. It's like our brains absorb more information or comprehend it the younger we are because life is so sudden. That's why children are so curious, yet they learn a lot from curiosity as well. https://widekmusic.bandcamp.com/album/journey-to-the-stars ^Space-djent music for Luna.

SteffieMusings 295 February 24, 2015 Share February 24, 2015 I seriously doubt the statistics, to be honest. Born in December, did well in school and doing fairly well in real-life. My friend was born in January and did fair. There are other factors as well, like how eager they are to learn. My O.C. Sweet Light My O.C. Porcelain My O.C.

Envy 6,129 February 24, 2015 Share February 24, 2015 (edited) Well, that would explain why I'm such a failure! That is if I actually believed the studies were true, which I really don't...

Moved to Elsewhere 11,331 February 24, 2015 Share February 24, 2015 Interesting. This reminds me of a book I read freshmen year of high school, Outliers. It went over studies similar to this. Some involving cut off dates. I wouldn't know if this is accurate. I was born in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitalSpark 1,830 February 24, 2015 Share February 24, 2015 This is a real phenomenon that has been studied and shown to be broadly true. However, you need to use the academic year, not the calendar year. In the Northern Hemisphere, the academic year usually runs from September to August. (In the Southern Hemisphere, the academic year is usually the same as the calendar year.) ~VitalSpark~ [fimfiction] [deviantart] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.J 921 June 28, 2022 Share June 28, 2022 Maybe it has to do with December babies being Sagittarius and they are "free willed" and don't like to take orders from others, they are considered "adventuror" as a primary occupation. I am December baby, I have a history of break back work leading NOWHERE, constantly arguing with employers/having objective disagreements on how the job should be done. Now I don't necessarily believe in all the astrology crap, it is an interesting correlation, and "success" is measured different from person to person. Some chase the spotlight, some chase financial success, some chase family aspirations, some are just upright workaholics, AND SOME ppl ACTUALLY DO meaningful stuff for children, animals, charities and aren't frivolous at all.. it just depends, it's like ppl become astronauts bc of the self ambition more so than the check.. it's just human wills/interests that make our goals VERY different from one another. I don't want to be married to someone I loathe secretly bc I'm "afraid of being alone"... Some ppl spend THEIR WHOLE LIVES pathetically comparing themselves to other ppl and living other ppls lives/goals bc that's just who they are, they are intently focused on the opinions of others/success of others, so they live a forgettable carbon copy existence that they call "success". "Successes" are subjective, bc I would HATE to be this person, but in their mind their "leading their best life".. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
They call me Loyalty 1,948 June 28, 2022 Share June 28, 2022 Sounds unlikely, but let's blame this whole life on that, anyway. Next, time I incur tax evasion, I will tell the officers I was born on december 6. Surely, they will understand. Hahaha. No, really. It was all because of a very dysfunctional family environment, abandonment issues, childhood trauma, financial instability, etc that essentially brought me down. There is only so much I can take before I break. Like anything else in this world. And it has been more than twenty years of bad after bad. So, you only have to add up the factors. It is all there. No need for moon logic. I was an amazing child. Loving, caring, sensible. And then I met this "family". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twilightlicious69 629 June 28, 2022 Share June 28, 2022 November baby undergoes personality change in lockdown and finds who they truly are and then loses friends and has a hard time fitting in and their parents want them to fit in like it's the only thing that matters in life, Now where have I seen that?

EpicEnergy 23,142 July 4, 2022 Share July 4, 2022 My birthday is in June, which is the middle of the year, so does that mean I have a 50/50 chance of being successful? Anyways, there's a saying which goes, "correlation does not equal causation". I believe this to be the case, that being born later in the year does not equal less success. *totally not up to any shenanigans* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
