Alfred Adler's birth order theory (1966) holds that firstborn children are included in family obligations. Some priests are firstborn. Catholic priests in Sub-Saharan Africa always face challenges to tackle poverty in their families.The work concluded that family members have high expectations to get support from the priests, especially financial support which affects the commitment of the priests to pastoral activities.
