Because he is a third child, which is against the law unless you have specific permission from the government, and too many children is seen as excessive and ultra-religious in that society, which is frowned upon.

Andrew Wiggin is referred to as "Third" because in Orson Scott Card's novel "Ender's Game", he is the third child born in his family. In the world depicted in the book, families are only allowed to have two children. Andrew's older siblings are Peter (the oldest) and Valentine (the middle child), so he is known as "Third" as a result.
