[quote=Anonymous]I read once that only children have stronger and longer friendships than children with sibs. It certainly was the case for dh and dd. I had dd late and in the middle of a lot of stressful things, so I was okay with not having another kid. But after my parents passed and I shared the load dealing with it with my two siblings, I felt sad that dd wouldn't have that kind of support when dh and I go. OTOH, she has an amazing friendship network and I totally expect that she will get plenty of help from her friends. I understand that you're sad, OP, and I think it's okay to grieve and work through those feelings. But the reality is that your kid might be just fine being an only child. Try not to worry too much.[/quote]
