[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have two, but I've noticed that many (but certainly not all) only children are into technology/social media earlier and more frequently than kids with siblings. It's just my observation, but they often have more access to devices and more alone free time [/quote] I have an only- his technology use is strictly limited. I think too much access to tech is more about parenting than whether a child has siblings. We love having an only DS8. We have a lot of free time, family time, etc. We can comfortably afford travel, private school, college savings, and activities. My DS has a learning impairment that takes effort to address at home. We can meet his needs without balancing the needs of other children- which I hear can be tricky. I had DS later- and sometimes miss the idea that I won't have another, but on balance, I think it's been right for our family. [/quote]
