[css] sass :first-child not working

I have not been using SASS for a very long time and wanted to know if there are some issues with pseudo-elements such as :first-child or :last-child ?

I think that it is better (for my expirience) to use: :first-of-type, :nth-of-type(), :last-of-type. It can be done whit a little changing of rules, but I was able to do much more than whit *-of-type, than *-child selectors.

First of all, there are still browsers out there that don't support those pseudo-elements (ie. :first-child, :last-child), so you have to 'deal' with this issue.

There is a good example how to make that work without using pseudo-elements:

I hope that was useful.
