[quote=Anonymous]I've had adults who were only children say to me unsolicited "Oh, just one? I was an only and it was wonderful." And go into reasons, like undivided time with their parents, travel, independence, helping them to relate to adults, etc. etc. I don't know if it's true, but I'm thankful to them. And DC's friends all comment on how lucky to not have siblings to fight with and have to share! Covid isolation changed that some, and I'm happy that the friends grew closer to their siblings over that time. I do still feel sad sometimes, since I wanted more but DH was one and done. He doesn't get it, which is extra hard. But most days I don't think about it at all and enjoy our family.[/quote]
