  • I'm not really close to my siblings. I often wish that I was a only child.

    I don't believe in those stereotypes about them being "lonely", "Maladjusted", or "selfish". It all depends on how they're raised, not the number of siblings they have or don't have.

    If anything, I'd consider you a very lucky person. After all, Onlies have more oppurtunities, they recieve more love and attention, they grow up without conflict/drama, and they're the literal apples of their parents' eyes. No favoritism going on.

    Don't be sad that you're a Only, embrace it with all your might. Not everyone gets that chance. In fact, if I ever became a parent, my child would be a only-child.
