There is no guarantee that siblings will be best friends. But I did know that I could be the BEST mom to one.

This is coming from an only child! You didn’t ask for it but I loved my childhood. The loneliness is felt now in my 20s in regard to how I will take care of them and not having siblings to help.

Only child: I was pretty lonely, I always wanted a brother or sister. I tend to have the “only child syndrome”. I respected my parents choice and understand it. Now I have a daughter and-

I’m a firm believer that the quality of a child’s joy in life in more dependent on their mothers level of happiness versus their number of siblings 🫶🏼

Commenting again just to offset the negative only child experiences…I have two siblings and the majority of things with my parents still fall on me. And we aren’t best friends.

Siblings aren’t always the answer. Hangout with your kid, spend time with them. They will find friends. Friends can be more powerful than siblings

Only child, loved my life. My mom had more energy than most and my house was the place to be. I had the most toys and my mom made all my friends food. My dad would pay for my friends to come to museums etc with me. I had lots of cousins and live a full, rich adult life. My husband said “I don’t want to take you away from your family, I want to be part of it”. He’s now the son my parents didn’t have

Coming from an only child, raised by a single mom. I have the best memories of my time with my mom and wouldn’t change it. As an adult, my husband and I was take care of her when the time comes

Only child here. I'm realizing that without siblings, you are truly, and really alone in this world. you have no one that shares the same living experience as you, at least to some extent.

As an only child, my heart ached for a sibling and still does as I’m older and I’m watching them age. But I realize my parents did not have the capacity for more, and I respect that as well.

I am so grateful to God for giving me 3 younger brothers. I am the eldest daughter & for a long time most responsibilities fell on me. But now, in my 30s, as I am going through hardships, I am able to fully lean on them & I am extremely grateful. Parents raised us to always be there for each other no matter what. Sibling relationships depends on the parents.

Growing up, I missed the fun sibling rivalry, but once I was in 5/6th grade I learned my brain had created imagination fully, I have developed creativity and I didn’t have to share the love of my parents. Being an adult tho my failures weighed harder bc if I failed I was the only one they had.
