Honestly uptill now being an only child was great i mean i was happy with it, until pretty much just this week. I saw the bonds they have with each other and though one made the younger cry atleast once a day, you could see the love he had for him. I crave that although now, I dont want one this much younger then me. Hearing people say im lucky for being an only child makes me feel envious. No tablet or materialistic item could compare to that. I cant tell you how badly I had wished to be apart of that family. Im not really close with cousins but I wish I was. They could possibly be one of the closest people I ever get in my life. Even my parents siblings make me feel envious they both had them. And the relationship they have with each other makes me crave it. Personally not just this week but I had never realized how important family was since 2020, and im grateful for that atleast. It just isnt the same knowing youll never have someone like that, that can see you in your worst. Personally I would never whine to anyone else but my parents, and its true comfort levels with family is something else. I just wish I had someone close to my age, that could be there, see me at my worst, make me knto a joke, and there to support me. On top of that, my parents rely on me now to continue the family. I dont wanna let them down and just hh

being an only child sucks. i hate when people say youre so lucky or i wish i was an only child because youll never understand what its like or how it feels. it never really affected me when i was younger, but now im a teenager i can literally feel tears forming in my eyes whenever i see someone have a good relationship with a sibling. i find it so hard to accept that its something i dont have, and never will. yes i have a room to myself, and i dont have to share anything but possessions are nothing compared to people and relationships. and my parents are divorced, meaning the only other person in my household is my mum. its so mf lonely. and when my parents pass therell be no one to share that burden, ill be alone. i just want people to be grateful they have a sibling, or even someone who cares about them because i dont even have a best friend or any cousins my age, making this harder. i would genuinely give anything to have an older sibling, and before yall say oh i dont have a good relationship with my siblings or omg i wish i was you just remember for an only child to hear that, it hurts.

so many people say that only children bond much stronger with their parents or get everything they want and get all their parents attention but that's just not true for me, because my parents are conservative and so on and they just don't understand me at all: ( i also don't get what i want because my parents don't want to waste their money (I kinda understand but it's still annoying yk) and yeah getting all the attention from them is also not really a good thing from my perspective.
I think there are so much more advantages of having siblings than being an only child. Many people find their siblings annoying but you can spend the holidays with them, you overcome hard times together and you have people you can rely on and love and are close with (this might not be everyone but most of the ppl I know with siblings are really close)
JUST GIVE ME A SIBLING
atp i am just desperate
holidays are lonely

I love being an only child. My parents got divorced when I was a little kid, my mum has full custody of me and I live with her and that's the reason I am an only child. Never heard from my biological dad again and I don't know if he is alive or dead and I don't care but I heard that he had a son with another woman, I don't know how many children he has now but they are not my siblings, anyone born from my mother's womb are my siblings no matter who the father is. My mom said she had always wanted to have many children but since she got divorced she couldn't.
I often tell her that I absolutely love being an only child and she is happy that I am happy.

Being an only child certainly has its perks. Not having to share anything, no fighting, having your own room, getting pretty much anything you want from your adult family. its awesome. Sadly, nothing comes without its cons. Being lonely is pretty common, and like a comment under here said, you can have friends and whatnot, but youll never be as important to someone as siblings are to each other. Also knowing that the future of the family rests in your hands can be pretty stressful.
Overall, I like being an only child, but knowing that Im not going to be as important to people who have siblings really stings.

#5 is honestly so true for me! i kind of never understood why my parents would say that i'm 'very good around adults' but now at 18 i can see that, especially in case of teachers, i'm basically never intimidated, always willing to start a conversation (even if it's controversial) and expect people to take me seriously (because people around me always did and do) and 'fight' for what i believe if needed, which most of my friends (who so happen to all have 1+ siblings) don't understand and would never do themselves. It just comes naturally (i'm an introvert so it's even weirder i do that.

I grew up with three brothers. We were 4 kids in 5 years, we did all together. But every of this points work for me. I always was more mature in talking to grown ups then kids, i know how to prepare my own food when I was six, made laundery and ironing when I was nine, didn't neet to share the important stuff, bc our relatives gave us mony on holidasy, so we needed do buy what we wanted, candy, sodas, devices, we all payed for it with own mony, so noone else took it.

Number 1 is there's peace in the house
I went to my cousin many times( she has 3 siblings) and every time I go i feel like my brain is gonna burst out of my head
Absolutely no privacy
Someone is always shouting somewhere in the house
I do feel excited the first day after spending a night no way i wanna spend another day there
Being alone at home is the best
Don't have to worry about headaches or privacy

The thing about being the middle child is they just adore your younger sibling, then you do things you used to do they thought were cute, but only at that time. But they dont care anymore. And your oldest sibling you feel like you dont see them anymore. Then the other middle child you feel like they get the most attention. The only place you can really go to for peace is a hug from your best friend.

I'm an only child too & also I got everything with an only child has but my parents are little bit more conscious for me as usual normal parents. &. Also I didn't gets my parents much attention for me I'm an only child but they didn't much treat me like that. I feels bad but becuz of that now I'm not a shy person. Over all It's not much easier to be an only child.

This video outlines more of the stereotypical side of only children. Not everybody has the same childhood despite the good points made. I certaintly wasn't spoiled growing up in poverty. And with adults, I do feel more at home around them and will speak my mind, but growing up southern has left it's toll on treating them on my level.

I'm an only child. It feels weird when in my family I'm the only child. Like all of my cousins have siblings and I don't. I actually had an older sibling who was still developing in my mom's belly that time but died so I came in the next year and hence, an only child.
I am still happy because my mom also agrees to be my sister lol.

The best things about being a only child is that I get almost anything I want and get my own room but the worst thing is that I can't get someone to help me do chores and the future of my family lies on me so I'm basically forced to have children when I grow up to keep the family name going.

I think you forgot the most key thing about being an only child
When your an only child your parents are you besties
Also you forgot to egnolage that when your an only child you have more social problems with other kids as your use to being around only adults

Your parents getting u everything you want because they have extra money and no one else will get jealous. getting all the attention. not having to worry about your things getting stolen by siblings. no sibling fights. yep! Being an only child sounds pretty good!

What people dont realize about only children. adults dont get it with todays times because theyre from a different generation, some only children wish that they had siblings growing up so that they wouldnt be lonely, and that you grow up too fast.

Being the only child is a curse and a gift from God for me. It's a curse because during my early school life I always get easily bullied but also a gift since I can get my parents attention. But now it's the exact opposite as I grew up.

As an only child, when your parents die, you are left with no one. You have no one behind you. People with siblings willing never understand or know what it feels like to start from nothing and end with nothing

being the only child is not making you selfish, weird or lonely. It doesn't make you different from other kids with siblings. Its all about the way that your parents raise you.
